The Democrats look at it this way. We have more poor people than rich people, that alone is a good enough reason for Democrats to pander to the poor. If they can gain favor with a larger group of the population by stealing money from 2% of the population thats an easy decision for them. If a large group of people were rich and 2% of the population poor, the Democrats wouldnt lift one finger to help those people. If 25% of the population were child molestors the Democrats would pander to them also, they would just do it quietly. They dont care about the poor, and they dont care about child molestors, they care about using them for political gain. They care about themselves and they will exploit whomever or whatever they have to in order to further their own sick agenda.
