Today in class we started going over the Europe map. The Dow Jones is almost at the point that we might get donuts! Today Mr. Bruns went over his Democratic and Republican power point. Democrats usually live in the cities because of young people, and minorities. They vote Democrat because the Democrats help those more kinds of people like the poor and are a lot more for the environment. In rural areas the more important thing is traditional values, where the Republicans live usually.If a person running for president gets more of the big states, you could win the popular vote. Republicans are conservative, and Republicans are much more religious than the Democrats. The term laissez-fair which means the Republicans stay out of business and life. They favor a limited role in the government and to lower taxes. They believe in the trickledown theory, which is if they give the rich tax cuts it will eventually help all the classes below them. Rugged individualism people need to help themselves or people are going to get lazy. Democrats are liberal and they believe in change. They want to stay out of your life, and give you the option if you want to do decide to have your baby or not. They believe in highering taxes on the rich, and are very strict environmentalists.3Madison
