The very wealthy elites who use favorable tax policies to grow their wealth now pay back social conservatives by financing this effort.

We are kinda dumb at times.

Very true. There has long been an assumption by many conservatives, and many conservative talk radio hosts, that all business people and the wealthy are naturally conservative.

The past few years has proven otherwise as we see Wall Street support Obama more than conservative candidates. And we saw the drug companies and medical insurers jump back-and-forth, for and against Obamacare depending largely on how they thought it affected their bottom line. No concern about the mushrooming size of government, just their bottom line.

And, of course, business interests will flood the nation with illegal aliens with little thought of the long term effects.

Conservatives definitely need to become much more discerning about their usual knee-jerk support of business interests.
