Conservative ideas killing off the white working class

It's because we've all been drinking ourselves to death for the past seven years. I wonder why? What's special about the last seven years? Curious.

I don't like Obama, but like the poster above mentioned. I think we're all being taken advantage of economically by our elected leaders on both sides. I'm conservative, but the republican party has been frustrating lately anyway.

How does this show 'Republican ideas are killing those who vote for them'?

The article shows a specific demographic with an alarming rise in suicide and death rates, relative to similar demographics; that demographic may align with Republican candidates, but I don't see where it is specifically 'Republican ideas' causing it....

Also, the article is simply stating that since this demographic aligns with Republican candidates, that those candidates would seem to want to point out and address the issue. But as there is no clear causality attributed to the rise in mortality, I'm not sure what you expect them to do....
 
Using the Jscott logic model Democrats are responsible for African Americans being in jail. Way to go libs lock up your voters.

This is not how you lock up your base.
 
For the most part, both political parties have been bad for Americans and sold us down the river. The Ds just happen to be more tolerable on social issues.

Let face it blue collar people do stupid things, this is why they are blue collar.

Nothing wrong with someone being a blue collar or working class person, these people get far to little respect from their white collar counterparts.

Effing nothing. It has all been the same since Reagan.
That's just not true. Wages since BHO came in are not Only stagnant they are dropping. That's esp true for middle incomes like this article talks about. You can have your own opinion but not your own facts
