I know that you believe that Dems hate the rich. But look at the evidence and you will find that the more fiscally responsible party has been the Democratic party when in power.
Not exactly true. The party not in power is fiscally responsible and the Dems hate the military. The problem with Bush is he didn't hate the entitlement programs as I do. He wanted to enrich the military and the entitlement programs.

The Dems will dismember the military, raise taxes (to be fiscally responsible BIG DEAL, it means I still don't get to keep anything, and continue to build up entitlements.

I will not enjoy the future, unless I can stash enough aware to move to Monaco where I can laugh at dumb Americans for killng their economy with taxes and entitlements.

Whichever party is in power wants the spoils of war. The difference Reps hate taxes and Dems love them. If I have to make the Pyrrhic Choice of low taxes with consequences later or high taxes and no money now, I'll take the former before the latter, because there is no promise of a better future under the latter. I have confidence in myself if I can have something extra. I have no confidence in others to do it for me.
