[thechat] Why would a conservative vote for a Republican president?

[Erik Mattheis]

Let's hope Isaac was drunk when writing this, at least the portions I 
didn't include in the reply!

The thing such a mindset fails to recognize is simple: a viewpont that 
goes beyond a single paycheck.

There are options ...

... provide things like mental health services or have untreated 
loonies out on the street committing crimes, costing the state more 
money and decreasing public safety and well being ...

... financially help out unwed mothers or have more children sent out 
on the street by unwed mothers to prostitute themselves and sell drugs.

... pay for heath care for uninsured families or have your kid catch TB 
from kids who didn't get shots ...

... etc etc ...
