(10,942 posts)no interest to people like Limbaugh and the rightwing. Given the OP's age and cardiac problems finding a job is likely impossible unless employment becomes so full that companies are forced to give older workers serious employment consideration. Sadly, the OP is likely going to need the social safety net for the rest of his life. So, Limbaugh, Romney, Ryan, Christy, et al, have no interest in what the OP thinks or feel, the OP is just another "taker" to them. I truly don't understand why a poor or middle class person ever vote republican. But a lot of people that are one lost job or illness away from economic destitution vote incessantly for republicans, even as they get nothing back for their votes even when they are still part of the "maker" class. But win a republican voting American falls out of the "maker" class, that person dies as far as the republican party is concerned.
