One thing republicans are good at is messaging. They've convinced the majority of Americans that government is evil. It will take away your rights and freedoms. The best government is small government. And just when Congress has its lowest approval rating ever, because people are "fed up" with government, they vote for the anti-government party--the very ones who make it so dysfunctional in the first place.
And there you have it--now, it really is evil.

(10,998 posts)their billions in politicians if government is bad. The billionaire as have stolen the good working government from the masses. Now they've made it look broken so they can tell the masses "see gubmint don't werk". Then, whee, they get to use yours and my money to do as they please. And if you don't like it, they create arbitrary laws to pitch you in prison labor camp.
