Coal mining

Because I work for a living and like guns

inbred familial autism and this

Poor white people might be on government benefits, but they don't want to be. They want to be self sufficient, so they vote for the party that claims it will help them in that direction. The Democratic party is the party for people who see no shame in accepting government benefits and want to remain on them indefinitely.

Because besides handouts the Left has failed them.
When you're desperate and dissolutioned, sometimes the most risky choice looks better than just choosing the shitty norm again.

I don't like niggers and faggots need to die

The Democrats don't care about working class whites, they only care about helping xir and le strong independent sassy black woman.

Yes the war of Northern aggression fucked over the South irreparably.

But Dixie will rise again!

That house didnt always look like that.
If fell into disrepair because the homeowners couldnt afford to maintain it.. ask yourself how that situaiton come to be.

“Socialism never took root in America because the poor see themselves not as an exploited proletariat but as temporarily embarrassed millionaires.”

Why do poor nonwhite people keep voting democrat?

Democrats haven't made those people less poor either

...

>highest usage
>1 out of the two people in this country use food stamps

>Poor white people might be on government benefits, but they don't want to be
Bullshit. Why would anyone want to work when the government gives you free money?

>"of" capitalized

Literally human trash

keeping your tax dollars is better thab raising minimum wage. white people also like to actually have a job instead of being parasites.

Because people work for reasons other than money.

How's the crime rate?

GO AWAY EVIL DOGGER

this. the rust belt and appalachia see no benefit from globalism. they only see the same shit, and likely worse, then they saw in 2008. it was an indictment, and who could blame them? i have no sympathy for the eastern seaboard city-states that live in self--serving bubbles of reacharound economics. globalism has not benefited the first world, outside of a small handful of key trade and business centers. maybe it could have been leveraged in a better way, but that chance is gone now and fuck them all for missing the smoke before the fire

Because having no control over your own destiny and living entirely dependent on the government is a good way to have a depressing and miserable existence.

>County with 5000 people living in it
>99% on bennies
>Somehow this is worse than cities with millions of niggers in them with 95% on bennies.

Maybe for someone with an actual career like medicine, but I find it hard to believe anyone takes a job at Walmart for any other reason than money.

Yeah. Um, this question is premised on republicans not being as good as democrats for people. Tax breaks create jobs, government spending creates shit.

Because they don't want their salaries being depressed by mass migration.

Dubdub s of truth

Why does the media love to spin things? Hell I don't even care if there is conservative media or not I just want media that doesn't try to spin news to suit any side

>t. Nigger

Just because niggers are worse doesn't give these people an excuse. You can't deflect all your problems like that and think you actually made an argument right?

Seems legit

>get fucked over by regulations put in by democrats
>no jobs
>not

To have a chance to become rich.

Can't do that shit in socialist equalism.

The democrats get the affluent vote, people that work for the state, directly or indirectly, and the people that live on welfare. The working poor want nothing to do with them.

And how many people live in this town?

Because the Democrats have betrayed the working class, the poor, and the middle class, and are in denial about it because of complete cognitive dissonance and classism.

Because its honest. Libcucks are all college educated because thats where the indoctrination starts.

Simple.

>socialist equalism

what does that mean

The majority of college educated whites voted Trump.

Cheers bro, I had actually forgotten that.

>Yes the war of Northern aggression fucked over the South irreparably.

explain this shit , Roo fucker

Why do minorities vote Democrat?

Spotted the nigger.

Because they're Christian beliefs and family values. Also there is some racism to those people because they're literally ignorant. Their neighborhoods are not city centers and they aren't or weren't exposed to MSm as much but now the internet is the new big media. Their traffic on site likes fb google etc generate enormous demand. The influence tech companies have and it is as staggering as it is dangerous. Soon Californians will start putting out their own tech presidential candiantes. CEO turned president. Trump has opened up a lane and I'm willing to bet others will follow. Cali is first on the list. NY is double stacked with Clinton and she is a dud. Expect some Tech CEO or some crazy shit next year.

>Coal mines close because leftists suddenly decide they don't like them any longer
>Generations of coal miners who have done only one job now out of work, nowhere to transfer to, towns were dependent on mine economy and are collapsing rapidly
>More businesses move out of dying towns, some residents remain because they have nowhere to go and no means of getting there anyway
>Remaining residents go into poverty

>"WHY ARE POOR WHITES VOTING REPUBLICAN, THE DEMOCRATS HAVE HELPED THEM SO MUCH!!!!!"

Yes, you're someone who needs a really hard kick to the teeth for being so fucking dumb like so many other retarded-yet-acting-elitist libfags.

Because poor people are religious, as they have been subjected to sub-standard education by Republican-controlled schools. They see the shit conditions they live in but don't have the skills necessary to change it, so they seek out a story that tells them it's not their fault and that better things will come to them later. Having found comfort in that story, they are then willing to do whatever their Pastor tells them, especially if doing the Pastor's bidding will get them even more bonus points in the eyes of their God. Those pastors know they need a crap education system so people will keep giving them money, so they tell their congregations to vote Republican, and the Republicans in any community stay religious not because they need the story themselves but they have to be the "evidence" the pastor can point to as to what is possible when God smiles upon you for doing the Pastor's bidding.

tl;dr. Because the Pope is Republican.

>why do fat poor people on welfare vote for democrats?

>the Pope is Republican

Kekest of keks, he's a fucking liberal in every sense of the word.

Not to mention, you seem to have zero grasp on the difference between Catholics and Christians, which makes you 100% incapable of further discussion on anything we're talking about here. Let the adults talk for a bit, maybe you'll learn something.

Does anyone have the pic where there's some hillbilly saying he votes Republican because of his values or something and there's like some CEO in the next slide that says he votes Republican just to screw the poor people over

>Why would anyone want to work when the government gives you free money?
Because it is demeaning?
Because "free" money has a price?
Because free money sets ceiling for you like any communism and leave no hope?

The entire county is in the middle of fucking nowhere Appalachia where you can't find a job even if you actually look and is full of old people who just can't leave.

>99692229
lol and u think coal mines are closing because of lefties, whereas it's really because China has been dumping their coal on the world market, making American coal uncompetitive.

But hey, thanks for taking the bait I left in my argument, obviously the rest of my comment is spot on because you had nothing to say about it.

So how about you go sit at the kid's table while the rest of us adults finish our meal? k thx bye

why do poor black people vote democrat?

>im not being sarcastic someone plz anwser my question

>inb4u hur dur dumb nig nogs

They fell for the "republicans are KKK" meme

Because the media + democrats have successfully convinced black people that the Republican party only benefits rich white people. Also this is kind of trick question because poor black people rarely vote anyways.

>why do poor black people vote democrat?
easy; because Republicans are white racists.

from kentucky. used to be you could crawl out of the hills with a 6th grade education, make good money, send your kids to college, and retire with a pension. they think this way of life can come back.

they're fucking stupid.

Gee, let's think in recent times:

Clinton and Obama both talk about closing more coal mines because of muh environment.

Trump says we need to keep clean coal options open and keep these people in jobs.

Seems your short-term memory leads you to completely ignore fact over which party has been intent on shutting down all traditional energy sources because, hey, let's all go solar and be living in utopia and save the planet and be awesome people, but just because you've 420 WEED DUDED your brain into missing critical factors doesn't mean you're right.

When the coal mines started closing long ago, it wasn't because of cheap Chinese coal, but since you're such a worldly chap who knows it all, I guess you must be right, after all, faggy leftists can never be incorrect even when you bitch slap them with reality, right?

And for the rest of your argument, why don't poor blacks who are religious vote republican by your logic? Oh, wait, that's because your logic isn't logic at all, it's just electronic diarrhea that rolls off without any brain power or rationale behind it. Typical lefty, no facts, just opinion and emotion.

You faggots really are retarded, aren't you?

As a rural Kentuckian, I can confirm. Jobs are what people want. Also, perhaps they care more about non-economic/government benefits issues? And guess what - even with rampant poverty, KY is one of the safest states in the nation.

>Owsley County is a county located in the Eastern Coalfield region of the U.S. state of Kentucky. As of the 2010 census, the population was 4,755,[1] making it the second-least populous county in Kentucky.

Really gets those neurons firing.

Nigger detected

Actually, it would look a lot better if they just hadn't added the ugly steel roof over the porch.

Because capitalism preaches that being poor is a sin and is equivalent to total social failure. The two major responses are self-loathing for being a failure, and so self-flagellating by voting Republican, or blaming others for your "failure" such as minorities and leftists.

The actual culprit is the whole socioeconomic system of capitalism itself. The Democrats aren't even much better, Dems think that capitalism can be saved and made to serve everybody. LOL.

Once poor people and deluded Dems realize who the true culprit is, the streets will flow like rivers with the blood of the capitalist oppressors.

because they believe is small government

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

fucker I grew up in West Virginia, read up on metallurgical coal vs steam coal. you can't make steel without coal. Appalachia is the home of metallurgical coal, it's why Pittsburgh was the big steel home. Well it was until China undercut the global market, killing the American steel industry. Coal for power plants? Pfffft they've been migrating to natural gas for years, because you can pipeline gas but you can't deliver coal by pipeline.

Sure, it wasn't directly because of cheap Chinese goal that the mines died; it was because of cheap Chinese steel & cheap natural gas.

Religious Blacks vote Democrat because their Pastors tell them to, because there are no Black Republicans to fund their churches; instead, the Black pastors have to shill the Democrats to get their tithes. But if you had stopped to think about it I already gave you the layout.

But hey, if you keep trying eventually you'll get something right... maybe.... someday...

And the continuous smugness and elitism of the left drives them away. "Rednecks" and "hillbillies" are certified Acceptable Targets for ridicule - almost exclusively by pompous coast-dwellers that have absolutely no concept of what it's like to live in a city of less than 300,000 people. Republicans, at least, don't emanate absolute disdain towards their very existence.

I bet that county is safer than most.

>Calling Democrats "the left."

Democrats are center-right.

And I grew up in Wisconsin, but it doesn't make me an expert in dairy farming.

Again, please tell me how he obvious difference where 2 parties are at odds over industry that one wants to close and the other wants to keep open has no effect by your logic. You claimed that politics didn't have much to do with it, but clearly, they do. But, you leftists always want to scapegoat someone other than your own party on shit like this, because fuck, how would it look if you twats had to actually face the reality of what your shitty regulations helped create? I'd really like to know the mental gymnastics behind that, but since you're dodging, I'll just assume that like everything else you said, it's just 100% bullshit.

So, you now changed your stance to "poor people vote however their religious leaders tell them to", which is not your original stance. And again, you specifically referred to Catholicism, and if you think that PA, WV and the people who worked the mines were Catholic and not other Christian derivatives, then holy shit, it only proves beyond a doubt that you don't have a fucking clue. By the way, a religion that has a leader who says "Abortion is okay, we need to worry about the environment more, and we need to take in more refugees" is a liberal one, so at this point in history, Catholicism = liberal religion of feels.

Just like a leftist, moving the goalpost, avoiding the questions he can't answer, and then trying to pretend he's in charge. The keks just keep coming with you, sonny - hopefully your fragile ego doesn't suffer too much from knowing you've been talking out your ass most of this time, because I envision you the type who can't handle it well knowing when you made an ass out of yourself by talking nonsense.

Yeah. It just makes you an expert in drinking.
Cheers.

Same reason why people learn to fix their own shit.

Its seen as super shameful and unmanly to be dependant.

Quite pedantic, friendo. You and I both know that the Democrats fancy themselves "left wing."

So they can have a chance at not being poor.

Says the man who is dependent on slurping capitalist cock and doing their bidding for table scraps. Keep on thinking you're independent, wageslave.

"But I am / going to be a business owner!"

You still will have to slurp the cock. Also if everyone was a business owner shit wouldn't work.

Because the other party's platform is anti-white.

Not pedantic at all. American politics systematically marginalized and eliminated actual left-wing discourse in civil society during the 20th century. Capitalists feared that shit and did everything they could to stamp it out. Now we have two right-wing parties, with one faux-leftist when it is still entirely neoliberal.

Now we're paying the price as global capitalism has become too big to fail, and policy makers are scrambling to save a system that is bound to crash hard on top of us.

Learn what words mean, and more importantly the ideas those words encapsulate, instead of getting all your information about the world from Sup Forums and breitbart.

Because the democrats hate all white people regardless of income. Race before class.

Lol you're that leaf that keeps shilling for communism. Nice capitalist-invented proxy, moose.

...

>Because the Democrats have betrayed the working class, the poor, and the middle class

lol yeah it was the dems who busted up the unions and made every state right to work

>Quite pedantic, friendo. You and I both know that the Democrats fancy themselves "left wing."

hey user

neoliberalism isn't left-wing ideology or policy

I took a job at wal-mart to do something with myself because I felt ashamed whenever someone asked me what I was doing and I had to explain I was a NEET.

Because they're retarded white trash.

this is why we hate niggers

>Kentucky
"Clean Coal" led to those mines being closed. Dems killed the coal industry. Politically illiterate libtards crow about their cherry picked "white welfare" example.

Here's every possible reply, in one infographic.
Enjoy your cancer, faggot.

natural gas killed the coal industry dumb fuck

coal is not profitable.

Today's bit of irony:
>Democrats promote/support welfare
>make fun of the people that use it
>get mad when those people vote Republican

They hate allahu akbars and mexicans just as much as we do.

>vote for republicans
>lose welfare
>lose health insurance
>jobs don't come back
>starve to death or get sick and die

oh ok

If there were only a fire emoji

this

extremely unlikely for anyone to literally starve to death in America. Even without welfare. The human body can survive very easily on small amounts.

>things that never happened

Because the democrats pretended that thy didn't exist

>coal is not profitable
>dumb fuck
Over-regulation killed the coal industry, genius.
Why does every retard make sure to say "dumb fuck", or "idiot" for emphasis in their post? Is it because you know you're an idiot, so you pre-empt anyone pointing it out by being the first one to say it?

>Why do poor white people vote Republican?

Find abortion morally repugnant.

Want the right to own a firearm to defend themselves.

Want the police to deal with criminals that make their lives a misery.

And being able to see through leftist bullshit by having lives based in reality.

>Because the democrats pretended that thy didn't exist

Yup. If only they were homosexual they might have mattered.

Because democrats hate whites, it's their newest party platform.
