Did anyone watch Pennyworth? The father is a possible picture of today's anti-liberal-democratic voter. Yeah, he's a fascist and a servant. -----Original Message----- From: Friam <friam-boun...@redfish.com> On Behalf Of Prof David West Sent: Thursday, August 26, 2021 12:55 PM To: friam@redfish.com Subject: [FRIAM] interesting - if true I encountered the following assertions but have not been able to confirm or refute. 65% of Americans earning $500,000/yr or more are registered Democrats and 74% of those earning $100,000 or less are Registered Republican. (Supposedly, IRS is source, but I can find it.) The 20 wealthiest Congressional Districts have Democratic representatives. (How was wealth measured?) 17 of the 20 wealthiest zip codes gave more money to Democrats than Republicans. ( More than half of the wealthiest individuals (Forbes list I guess) in the US, consistently support, in words and contributions (how would anyone know) "liberal democratic" values and causes. If these were true, it would be interesting to the extent it belies the caricatures of the Republican party as the bastion of the plutocrats and the Democratic party as the champion of the working class. davew - .... . -..-. . -. -.. -..-. .. ... -..-. .... . .-. .
