Why do people often vote against their own interests?
The Republicans' shock victory in the election for the US Senate seat in Massachusetts meant the Democrats lost their supermajority in the Senate. This makes it even harder for the Obama administration to get healthcare reform passed in the US.
Political scientist Dr David Runciman looks at why is there often such deep opposition to reforms that appear to be of obvious benefit to voters.
Last year, in a series of "town-hall meetings" across the country, Americans got the chance to debate President Obama's proposed healthcare reforms.
What happened was an explosion of rage and barely suppressed violence.
Polling evidence suggests that the numbers who think the reforms go too far are nearly matched by those who think they do not go far enough.
But it is striking that the people who most dislike the whole idea of healthcare reform - the ones who think it is socialist, godless, a step on the road to a police state - are often the ones it seems designed to help.
In Texas, where barely two-thirds of the population have full health insurance and over a fifth of all children have no cover at all, opposition to the legislation is currently running at 87%.
Anger
Instead, to many of those who lose out under the existing system, reform still seems like the ultimate betrayal.
Why are so many American voters enraged by attempts to change a horribly inefficient system that leaves them with premiums they often cannot afford?
Why are they manning the barricades to defend insurance companies that routinely deny claims and cancel policies?
It might be tempting to put the whole thing down to what the historian Richard Hofstadter back in the 1960s called "the paranoid style" of American politics, in which God, guns and race get mixed into a toxic stew of resentment at anything coming out of Washington.
But that would be a mistake.
If people vote against their own interests, it is not because they do not understand what is in their interest or have not yet had it properly explained to them.
They do it because they resent having their interests decided for them by politicians who think they know best.
There is nothing voters hate more than having things explained to them as though they were idiots.
As the saying goes, in politics, when you are explaining, you are losing. And that makes anything as complex or as messy as healthcare reform a very hard sell.
Stories not facts
In his book The Political Brain, psychologist Drew Westen, an exasperated Democrat, tried to show why the Right often wins the argument even when the Left is confident that it has the facts on its side.
He uses the following exchange from the first presidential debate between Al Gore and George Bush in 2000 to illustrate the perils of trying to explain to voters what will make them better off:
Gore: "Under the governor's plan, if you kept the same fee for service that you have now under Medicare, your premiums would go up by between 18% and 47%, and that is the study of the Congressional plan that he's modelled his proposal on by the Medicare actuaries."
Bush: "Look, this is a man who has great numbers. He talks about numbers.
"I'm beginning to think not only did he invent the internet, but he invented the calculator. It's fuzzy math. It's trying to scare people in the voting booth."
Mr Gore was talking sense and Mr Bush nonsense - but Mr Bush won the debate. With statistics, the voters just hear a patronising policy wonk, and switch off.
For Mr Westen, stories always trump statistics, which means the politician with the best stories is going to win: "One of the fallacies that politicians often have on the Left is that things are obvious, when they are not obvious.
"Obama's administration made a tremendous mistake by not immediately branding the economic collapse that we had just had as the Republicans' Depression, caused by the Bush administration's ideology of unregulated greed. The result is that now people blame him."
Reverse revolution
Thomas Frank, the author of the best-selling book What's The Matter with Kansas, is an even more exasperated Democrat and he goes further than Mr Westen.
He believes that the voters' preference for emotional engagement over reasonable argument has allowed the Republican Party to blind them to their own real interests.
The Republicans have learnt how to stoke up resentment against the patronising liberal elite, all those do-gooders who assume they know what poor people ought to be thinking.
Right-wing politics has become a vehicle for channelling this popular anger against intellectual snobs. The result is that many of America's poorest citizens have a deep emotional attachment to a party that serves the interests of its richest.
Thomas Frank says that whatever disadvantaged Americans think they are voting for, they get something quite different:
"You vote to strike a blow against elitism and you receive a social order in which wealth is more concentrated than ever before in our life times, workers have been stripped of power, and CEOs are rewarded in a manner that is beyond imagining.
"It's like a French Revolution in reverse in which the workers come pouring down the street screaming more power to the aristocracy."
As Mr Frank sees it, authenticity has replaced economics as the driving force of modern politics. The authentic politicians are the ones who sound like they are speaking from the gut, not the cerebral cortex. Of course, they might be faking it, but it is no joke to say that in contemporary politics, if you can fake sincerity, you have got it made.
And the ultimate sin in modern politics is appearing to take the voters for granted.
This is a culture war but it is not simply being driven by differences over abortion, or religion, or patriotism. And it is not simply Red states vs. Blue states any more. It is a war on the entire political culture, on the arrogance of politicians, on their slipperiness and lack of principle, on their endless deal making and compromises.
And when the politicians say to the people protesting: 'But we're doing this for you', that just makes it worse. In fact, that seems to be what makes them angriest of all.
Interesting piece.
I'm often bemused when I see people acting... well, I won't say idiotically here even though that's what I often think.
Like, playing the lottery or gambling in general: In the long run the house always wins so in one sense no gamblers ever win anything, on average. Fair enough, some people like gambling so good luck to them.
It's sad to see emotive rhetoric overwhelm reasoned debate come election time.
Here, the last election John Howard won was won in an atmosphere of extreme hype over refugees arriving by boat. The zeitgeist was very much xenophobia thinly disguised as the perceived national interest with a liberal splash of curmudgeonly sticking to the letter of the law, succinctly and unforgettably put by Howard:
"We will decide who comes to this country and the circumstances in which they come."
The nonsensical thing about it was, and still is to the extent the issue is still (?) hyped by the media, that the number of refugees arriving in this manner are a ridiculously small fraction of our quota. |

HeyBuddy Salvaged from Archive | Posted: 30 Jan 2010, 20:29 · [Salvaged from Archive] Here's what you need to understand. Our Constitution allows certain powers to the Federal Government. All other powers are that are not given to the Federal Government, and not prohibited to the states are the responsibility of the states. That's the 10th amendment in a nutshell. Massachusetts wanted a government run health care system, and they have it. It's run by the State Government. Not every state wants that, and the Federal Government does not have the Constitutional authority to do so. If they go ahead and do it anyway, Massachusetts would have to comply with Federal standards and so would the states that don't want ANY intervention. You would get a blanket system for the entire country, and lets face it. Not all states are created equally. |

Within a few days the man tossed ol Brownie under the proverbial bus. The same thing is going to happen to the freshman Senator from MA, he's fiercely independent and will eventually go against the republicans, at that time they'll label him a rino and work to find someone further right for that Senate seat.
rino, for our international members, is a cop out term where the republicans attempt to ditch ownership of republicans that are not in lock step with their party. But make no mistake the so called rino is elected by the majority of republicans, much like they fell behind McCain in 08. |

yea...i think it was around $500 billion under the bush administration that didnt last a fuckin month before it got sucked into companies with no oversight of the spending
and now: hussein fucking obama has done SHIT to at least try to instill oversight into the spending of the rest of the money given to him from the bush admin.

capitalism has cycles as well
remember the great depression?
the japanese recession?
yea and the world economy still bounced back, i dont see how a failing market is a sign or step towards marxism (in the world we live now), i see it as a part of the cycle that capitalism goes through
and i like that comment about the class war but i dont agree with it
i dont think theres many countries that ID the middle class the same way we do here
in all honesty it seems that in our culture and the development of this current country has erased "the middle class"

The GM bailout transferred a controlling share of ownership to the government, and also to the Unions. It broke contracts with the bond holders, who had rights to ownership. The government executed the bailout under the context that it would help GM avoid bankruptcy. They still filed bankruptcy.
On the other hand, Ford was in bad shape and they didn't want to be part of the bailout. They didn't end up filing bankruptcy, and are in fact doing very well right now. Their performance is well above that of GM or Chrysler, and they are still publicly owned and traded. Whereas GM had their CEO run out by the government and replaced by an under-qualified candidate that was hand picked by government officials, and broke agreements with bond holders that are essential, Ford did it the right way. |
