You may be surprised how many frum jews will vote for Hilary (or any D). You may have to limit your statement to non-hasidic orthodox jews.

I've yet to opine on who will vote democrat or republican, I leave that to the well informed here. All I was saying is that you can be against a policy but if its in place still benefit from it.

Blacks would disagree with you on both points. They would be ROFLTAO about Romney creating jobs.

96% would be rotflao?

I think it's perfectly clear why blacks voted for Obama-mostly for racial reasons-so don't make it sound as if they crunched job numbers or considered who is more likely to succeed in creating them. It's only whites that are racist if they vote for a guy based on his white skin color-when blacks do it it's all good. After all, racism means evil white oppression. Anything else (blacks, Hispanics, or women voting based on race or gender) is either justified or at least understandable.

Do you fall out of bed every Friday morning and hit your head? What the h*ll are you talking about? Where did I say why blacks voted for Obama? All I did was point out that blacks would disagree with the statements zale made about religion and jobs. If you want to talk about racism we have to go back to the clown this thread is about.

Well you said blacks would laugh about Romney creating jobs AS IF they made an analysis of Obama vs Romney on job creation and as if job creation was what they were voting for when in the booth.
A we can talk about racism regarding blacks Hispanics and women voting based on race or gender. It's a FAR more serious issue than some comments from Donald Trump.

Blacks are democrats. They believe republicans destroy jobs not create them.

That explains a lot about some of the posters. Talk about Stockholm Syndrome.

Most people who need welfare don't have taxes to cut...

Exactly! because they rather stay on welfare than pay hefty taxes!
The liberal (read communist) dream: keep everyone on welfare and therefore dependent on the government.
The Republican (at least the conservative) dream: cut taxes live on your own be responsible for yourself (money wise) & so on....

and what about those who just don't make it? For example, for every winning trade on Wall Street there is an equal loss.

The one who sold and could have made the money, the one who bought at a higher price. Maybe this wasn't the best example a especially since in this case the one with the loss have made money just not as much as he would have otherwise. The point is the same. There will always who those who just don't make it.

I hear your point, don't exactly see how this illustrates it though.

No, I buy a coke for a dollar because I value the coke more than the dollar and the seller values the dollar more. Trade is a win win.

So therefore you are not a dollar poorer?
