I think it is sad that those that have fallen behind still look for politics to bring them up. The opportunity for upward mobility doesn't rest with a political party, but with the desire of one's self. Sacrifice and patience goes a long way, that's what my grandmother did and several of her children are worth millions.

Absolutely agree. 1,000%. Until you realize that YOU are responsible for YOUR own success, you'll be at the mercy of strangers who only want your vote. By all means, vote for your principles, but don't count on elected appointees to put in the work and stack paper for you.
That goes whether you're republican, democrat, independent, or whatever.

That's awesome. That's the kind of family legacy we should foster

My friend Richard is a self styled country boy from Alabama. His mother raised 6 kids alone, working 3 jobs after their dad split.
Growing up in the South, I had more in common with Black Country folks than I did urban white people.
