Leftists are destroying our country

And it should come as no surprise, most bleaters want government handouts. Moochers. Bleaters want Socialism....just like their messiahs.

LINK: There’s been a change in what voters want from Washington.

The latest Fox News survey asks which of two messages voters would send to the federal government: "Lend me a hand" or "Leave me alone." A majority of 52% would ask Washington to lend them a hand, up from 44% in 2021. The eight-point increase comes mostly from a 19-point jump among Republicans as views among Democrats held steady.

Still, Democrats (69%) are much more likely than Republicans (38%) to say, "Lend me a hand."

Last year, 47% told the government, "Leave me alone." Now, that’s 43%.

More than twice as many Republicans (60%) as Democrats (26%) want the government to leave them alone.

Among independents, views are more divided: 48% say "Lend me a hand" vs. 44% prefer "Leave me alone."

The shift toward wanting a hand-up comes as large majorities rate economic conditions negatively (78%) and say that the economy is getting worse (73%) and that they’ve had to cut back on spending to afford necessities (71%).

Meanwhile, more than half think the country is becoming more socialist, but six in 10 say that such a move would be a bad thing.

By a 54% to 38% margin, voters say the U.S. is currently moving away from capitalism and more toward socialism.

Nearly twice as many think such a transition would be a bad thing (60%) rather than a good thing (32%). Among Democrats, 53% think a move toward socialism would be good.

Conducted Oct. 9-12, 2022, under the joint direction of Beacon Research (D) and Shaw & Company Research (R), this Fox News Poll includes interviews with 1,206 registered voters nationwide who were randomly selected from a national voter file and spoke with live interviewers on both landlines and cellphones. The total sample has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 2.5 percentage points.

Democrats need two things in order to win and maintain their power.

  • They can't win unless they can cheat.
  • They can't stay in power unless they increase dependency with the very folks they need to cheat!
They don't want more independent thinking legal voters. They want more mind numbed illegal voters only looking for free handouts.

Facts.
