Tech Firms: Pro-Democrat, Pro-immigration, Pro-Rubio
5th May 2013
The Lion of the Blogosphere deals out some inconvenient truth.
1. Despite the myth in the conservative blogosphere that big business and rich people are Republican, in fact big business and rich people are far more Democratic than conservative-blogosphere types want to believe.
2. They are putting massive support behind more immigration so they can fill up their cubicles with cheap computer programmers from India.
The Republican party hasn’t been the ‘party of the rich’ since FDR. It is, however, the party of the Real Middle Class who run the small businesses of America and who are getting it packed up their pooper by the quasi-fascist alliance of the Crust Corporate and the Crust Political. All this noise about ‘soaking the rich’ is just handwaving to disguise the fact that (a) there aren’t enough rich to pay for all the promises coming out of Washington and (b) ‘the rich’ aren’t scared by tax increases any more than people who live on a hill are scared by flooding.
