America: a land of liberals governed by conservatives? editorial 10/4/13

In Oliver Burkemans blog he explains his true befuddlemt of how the far right wing faction of the government can seemingly convince a whole party on how to vote and how it all revolves around one thing, money. Today in society money is everything, it is the same in politics, money equals power. The Republican party seems to have wealthier members and their beliefs adhere to those who have made money by themselves and in the private sector. So when a republican politician speaks and they have money their party will listen and probably agree becaue they know that that person is some kind of succesful in their eyes.

I agree with Burkeman's evaluation of the Republican Party. Now that the Government Shutdown has begun the Conservative's true colors have been shown. Mitt Romney lost the presidential election and his main goal of that campaign was to get rid of Obamacare. Sorry Republicans but the population of America voted for Obama and with that comes his beliefs on health care too. Your money and power will not let you get what you want as you seemingly think it will. The conservative party must unerstand that the entire country is not millionares and some people were not as privaleged as them growing up. The Affordable care act helps those people.  The millionares of the Republican party  are trying to speak for the poor, i on understand why some of them listen.
