Why do Republicans hate poor people?

Update:

@Dima

Dems hate rich people because rich people try to ensure poor people stay poor (see trickle down economics). When there is wealth disparity, that works out in the favor of some very rich people.

    They fear becoming them. If they can convince themselves that the poor are poor because they are morally inferior, lazy, parasitic leeches, then they can comfort themselves with the fact that they, as upstanding moral citizens, can never become poor.

    I thought we were the poor people. You know, uneducated and living on trailer parks and all that.

    Libs can't keep their idiot prejudices straight.
