I've never understood how a person pledges blind support to a political party, because in reality they don't care about you in any form what so ever.

I rarely find myself agreeing with the Republican Party on any issue, same thing with the Democrat Party. Look at Juneau, every single elected representative deserves to be thrown out. But it will never happen because voters, no matter how much they complain, don't want to give up a single thing.

Look at the outcry over freezing state employees pay, you would think that some are going to be forced into poverty by the reactions. Same with ending corporate welfare to oil companies, or the state subsidizing GCI's profits. People act like by ending, or at least scaling back the amount, is going to make the state fail.

We are going to be in a world of hurt because of  people  who cling to their own self interests.
