Republican
A political party in the United States of America that specifically caters to the rich, wealthy and super-wealthy (all part of the upper 1% income bracket), yet the poor, the working class, and the middle class still occasionally vote for them. This phenomenon can be attributed to the extensive propaganda campaign that is blasted at unsuspecting citizens from the corporately owned T.V., radio, and publishing media outlets, esp. Fox News. Their political agenda is to abolish taxes for the wealthy and offload the taxation burden to those who are least able to pay. This encourages a system of perpetual debt where the rich richer, the poor poorer, effectively destroying the middle class and imposing a new slave class a.k.a. wage slave or 'working poor.' To them 'freedom' means the ability to establish and maintain such a system (domestically and internationally) that benefits only the rich, wealthy and super-wealthy and their subsequent successors for generations.
Having the poor, working class, and middle class vote for a Republican is like having hens and roosters vote for Colonel Sanders.
