the National nm bird election survey this something interesting they want our
constituents and then they went to go see how
senators and congressmen actually voted the table with constituents or not
well turns out it depends it depends on whether you have money
or you don't have money I know shocking shipping over I'm sorry I should be
given a warning that I probably knock you over
well they say that the the check the voting behaviour the Senators
from the 107th the 111th Congress
he talked in ninety thousand respondents Eliza giant survey
American people no their different socioeconomic status
what their policy positions were and who got listen to and who did
so so some other findings Eric Dolan who is
a reporting on this says in all the five congress' examine
the voting records are senators were consistently allied with opinions
up their wealthiest constituents shock
the opinions of lower class constituents however
never appeared to influence the senators voting behavior
now the operative word there is naber
never that's for
pork assiduous middle-class really get to in a sec K
so now we move forward in neglected lower income groups
was a bipartisan affair democrats were not
any more responsive to the poor then republicans
bingo see is what drives me crazy
are not just J you're rooting the democrats shares
%uh reelection and what would happen
if they got reelected they apparently winless in the poor
any more than the republicans to now I am saying that because
I'd lived through those congresses I saw with my own eyes
I reported the nitty-gritty all the details all the bills
and how the democrats play good com other problems play the bad cop but
they're
objective is the same to give everything to their wealthy donors
and nothing to the rest of us because they don't represent us
and they talk in ninety thousand responses saw the same exact thing
so here's some more he's found in the middle class pin was only represent
million
to other congresses examine they not merciful to idle if I was a poor got 0
to 5
in the 110th and 111th Congress is when Democrats controlled both the Senate and
the House
the voting records have senators apply to the opinions a middle-class
constituents
as well as upper class constituents so that's the best you can do with the
democratic party
when they control all government they care about the middle class
a little bit almost as much as they care about the upper class
now mind you again the poor never considered
not by the democratic party now by the Republican Party there
out of the equation UK give me a dollar I'm not gonna give you a dollar
sad day for you that's how legalized bribery works in american
now okay so credit to the democrats ever carry a little bit more about the middle
class
now halt don't give them too much credit because there comes an expect
contrary to popular opinion it was democrats
not republicans who are more responsive
to the upper-class opinion in the one hundred and eleventh Congress
see I can make this stuff up
I sought I reported that's why have they pay is that I have based on the facts
so in the 111th Congress that was on the rare congress' where they actually
pass some laws that help the middle class but they
the democrats wanted to help the upper-class
even more night is more than the middle class they want to help cover plus even
more than the republicans that
that's why so much the corporate money now flows
to the democrats because they get the use the Republican Party to drive a
conversation further and further right
and then they turn around to all those ribs and their crazy
let it go ahead both for the democrats over there was all look at that Obama
gimme
or everything I want yea view 5 percent change their peers a change so you
should up about it
and he let me continue every policy we had under the Bush administration
and this very day president Obama is arguing
to lower corporate taxes Wow
Shockey democrats are part of the same
corrupt system in fact the play very well important role in that system
in a hand your money over to the rich just as much as the republicans in
apparel in the 111th Congress
a little more than the republicans finally
Thomas J Hayes who led this a Trinity University the research
says if he called what's up responsiveness is a fundamental practice
in a democratic society my findings question
degree to which this occurs you have to question the degree to which democracy
occurs
in america because apparently you do not get
true equal representation
you are not equal under the law if you are poor
you'll be completely ignored if your middle-class
sometimes you get some crumbs off the table
but if you are rich the democrats and the republicans will trip
over themselves and compete with one another on who can service you better
welcome to America there is a way to change it anybody know how
are you got that right my friends wolf dash pack Dhaka
enough us running from them let's run towards a
who %um a little scare alright your wealth cash back to come
takes five seconds a sign a petition that's one way of getting involved
your be a member take these guys on
let's go get 'em and can be fixed remember there was a golden time
not lead we never had this thing figured out member in the 1970s
ralph nader was so strong he got richard nixon the past the EPA the past osha
got seat belts in every car the car makers at all by gods got
audio and go I can't do it up it's a more thing they always say but they
didn't have the power they have now
so they were able to put sepals in the courts
if we had the current system we have now if you have no CBO's ever to be flying
through the
or tissue you know its it makes a difference
and we fight back we can win and we can make a difference but right now this
system
as this corrupt as it has ever been
and if you're looking for some politician to save you or the Democratic
Party deceive you or
amusingly enough some I guess think the republican party's gonna save them
for man knocking on the wrong door
not time to knock on their doors not wait some to blow their doors down
