I prefer to think of them as greedy assholes rather than stingy. Folks who want for nothing screaming over having to spend a few pennies for the good of others. I've got mine...screw you in other words.

Long form Conservative mantra;
"Nobody will take away my God-given right to take whatever I want from whomever I please by whatever means necessary for whatever purpose I may choose."
Short form mantra, "I've got mine, fuck you."

The GOP solution. Poison the little people so the ruling class won't have to pay taxes.

Flint Michigan: 57% black, 42% poverty rate.

The same old story.

This morning I took a drive that went through one of the poorer sections of Mobile. The area is called Maysville. It's mostly black and very poor. What you notice right away is the condition of the city streets. The pavement is full of cracks and potholes and the drainage sucks. We had rain last night and there were many areas with standing water. Your vehicle really takes a beating driving through there. You don't see shit like that in the white areas. It's obvious how the maintenance bucks are allocated here.

Or, in the case of Flint, don't vote GOP and get GOP'd on anyway.

Several Michigan Republicans have described the water crisis in Flint "a hoax."

Very classy.
