[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do the wealthiest places in America - the Upper East Side, Scarsdale, Greenwich, Chevy Chase, Winnetka, Beverly Hills etc. - vote D?  Don't they do better under Republican policies?[/quote]

They have a conscience and care about inequality.

My question to you is why are all Republicans glassbowls?  [/quote]

I posted before reading. Yep, virtue signaling becomes critical after wealth “I’m rich but I really really really care about others”.

I’m rich and care about others too. As a republican though, I don’t have a need to wear that on my sleeve. Remember that the research shows that [b]Rs donate to charity more than Ds[/b]; they just don’t feel the need to crow about it. I guess, like me, they just don’t care what others think of them.

Why do we need charities? Honest question. 
The basic purpose of charity or giving is communal and individual welfare. If practiced on a large scale and regularly as well, the charity can get the wealth circulating in society
 You get a tax write-off for donations vs paying taxes that could cover the same type of work. 
So you think you get a gold star for donating to charities, which btw reduce your tax burden, but you arent willing to pay taxes to increase welfare of citizens.

THought I understood yall correctly. Thanks for making your arse so visible. [/quote]
