Letter to the editor: Don't Republicans want to help struggling Americans?
Politicians feel beholden to vote the way their biggest and richest campaign donors want them to vote. More and more Republican donors are billionaires who are survival-of-the-fittest social Darwinists who would love to see all social safety-net programs that help the middle and lower classes be abolished. They also believe in a hyper-individualism and a hyper-libertarianism.
Thus, if the Republicans in Congress could not say “no” to passing new social programs to help struggling Americans, they would be mute!
