Why are most of the richest Billionaires "Liberal"?

[TheAntichrist666]

I was checking out the top 25 richest people in the world and the vast majority are Liberals, few were Conservatives. I have noticed this trend and found it interesting. If Conservatives are "correct" why aren't their that many of them in the top 25? I'm vote Libertarian myself, but my value system is Liberal. I believe this could be the reason why Liberals such as George Soros have more political clout than 1,000 Conservative middle class farmers from rural Kansas.

If we want to change America we the conservatives and libertarians we need to get up there and become America's Elite, so that our views are heard.

The simple answer is this: wealthy liberals blatantly use social liberalism and big government regulation to protect their relative position in society. Big government regulation and taxation thwarts the economic mobility of those trying to move up, allowing the elites to remain elite, while still seeming pious for all their apparent efforts to help the little people.

additionally its a method of passing out crumbs to the masses to appease and keep them at bay...

this is more or less described as economic and financial monopolism of the elite.

Oligarchy could be described this way.

The answer is really very simple.

Those 1000 farmers in Kansas go to church on Sunday and their pastor tells them to vote republican, so that's what they do.

And those same farmers, if you would ask them the name of the vice president they wouldn't know it,
and ask them who's the current president they would probably say: Bush?
And that's not only in Kansas, but also in Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, and a whole bunch of other states.

I disagree. I think they know full well
Who the prez is... It's that darkie feller from Islam .
They know this because faux told em so.
Preacher man says a white non Christian is more in line with their beliefs
Than the black Christian guy. It's a veiled racist agenda. Thinly veiled.

I don't care if the guy is purple.... He's still less scary than that RobMe fella.

Tell us how it's done there, then. I come from a major metroitan
Area.... And that's how it's done here .... In the buckle of the bible belt .

I'm not an attendee except for the occasional wedding or funeral.
I had enough of the lies and deception as a young adult.
I don't need some for profit preacher telling me how to
Think, feel or vote.

It's political pandering of the worst kind. I saw this behavior exhibited
Countless times at several different congregations before my eyes
Opened and saw the man begin the curtain...
It wasn't Jesus . Just a lot of non taxed Mercedes driving , custom suit wearing
Mouthpieces pushing for their own agenda and looking for
that power lusting fix.

I'm not sure your factual premise is correct. My guess is if you confine it to the US, you'll find probably 60/40 Republican to Democratic ratios among billionaires. But unlike most folks who give money, many in that group give to both sides (as do I, although my Republican donations are relatively small). But you just can't ignore important people in critical posirions in power who can do things for you.
