You'd think that common sense would prevail, but it does not. They - I am a few levels removed from ever considering myself "rich" - feel as if they are carrying the burden of a bigger government due to the new administration without looking at the trend that the government was already getting bigger in the last decade.

Thus, the rich feel as if they are funding something they fundamentally do not believe in, nor wish to support.

Same for healthcare. They feel as if things are fine. They're covered. So everything with everybody is ok. Only a small percentage of people are uncovered according to misinformed people.
