I work in a job with low income families. I see the struggles each day that the average and below average income families go through. I guess I am one of those people that think I can change the world...and make it a happy place where we do not spend money on war, help the poor and disadvantaged, and just try to make a difference in the average persons life. So in the long run I do not like to see the unemployment rate high (has a trend of being lower when Dems are in office), money going to the rich and big businesses, and war (not saying Dems are against war, but for example, we are done in Iraq, Sadaam is gone and we should be gone also. Quit endangering our soliders lives, let them come home). I could write forever on why I am a democrat...but when asked these are the FIRST FEW things that come to mind. And like I said...this is just my opinion and I ask no one to feel they have to believe it or agree with it in any way. I know I cannot save the world, but helping the disadvantaged make a difference in their lives is what I do each day, and I feel at least I am making a difference.
PS: I also work for a program that is funded by the Federal Govt. It is a program the Republicans deem unworthy of large amounts of money. So each year our grant becomes smaller and smaller and each year I have to hope my job will stil exist.
