The Democrats are the party of remaining poor forever. The Republicans are the party of providing opportunity to stop being poor, working hard and making money.

And how exactly do you suggest that the people on welfare get the financial support to run for office? Of course most of the politicians of both parties are either rich or VERY well off. The difference is that OUR rich politicians care about the poor and don't mind giving up one of their six annual vacations or one of their three mansions in order to help starving or homeless people. YOUR rich politicians on the other hand NEVER get enough to find any compassion for the less fortunate. That's the difference!
