Seems all too many are more interested in “How does (content of your post) reflect on me?” in light of the promises made by Democrats.
Democrats blatantly lie about what they are going to “give” to the little people. The “little people” today seemingly viewing Government as an entity that either gives, or takes away.
Conservatives with their eye on reducing Government have to go the step further to educate the electorate of how the reduction of Government actually benefits them as individuals. Otherwise there exist too many that perceive Conservatives negatively. Conservatives are in their eyes trying to disrupt the intent of Government which to them has evolved, thanks to Democrat obfuscation to providing.
Our Government wasn’t designed to be this way, but over the years the Democrats have convinced all too many that Government is their life.
That is true but the point is that since we have on display how broken the government is and how out of control the spending is this is the perfect time to start educating. Most of the public do not support these bailouts so it seems that most people only need a little push to go a bit further in their understanding. No one with any degree of sense believes the government deserves more money or the faith of the citizen. There will always be those who look doe eyed after those who would be their lord but they are not the majority. The problem is speaking to people in terms that resonate with them. People don’t trust the government and that is one place to start.
