As near as I can tell, in the world the Republicans are fighting for there will be:
- no funding above sequester levels
- no reproductive choices for women
- no raises in the minimum wage
- no Social Security
- no Medicare
- repeal of the Affordable Care Act (millions will again be at the mercy of insurance companies or have no insurance)
- as little funding for social programs as possible (after all, food stamps and unemployment only make people lazier)
- no same sex marriage
- no voting rights act
- no additional funding for service people, their families or veterans programs
- an end to public education (charters are not better, but they are for-profit)
- no unions to help people get better pay or benefits
- no pollution or safety regulations on industry (no legal protection for citizens)
HOWEVER, there will also be:
- politicians who have a license to lie in political campaigns
- guns everywhere and anywhere
- license to shoot at anyone you say you don't like the looks of
- PLENTY of money for military defense contractors like Blackwell (who do shoddy work for billions of taxpayer money)
- lots of tax breaks so corporations and rich people get richer
Democrats need to vote if they don't want the world the Republicans want.
