all facts. white people are inherently racist...no surprise here.
even if they are educated and intelligent.
but the doctors i have encountered have been more for the republican party than they are for trump. i've met some that are embarrassed by him but seem to be content that at least he's republican.
still though, even in houston most doctors i meet are democrats...especially the ones that aren't old as dirt

Not necessarily. Much more prone to racism yes and in very large numbers. But I grew up with an extremely racist father and I would argue I'm far from being anywhere near racist. I think one or more very racist family members can have 2 effects. Either you adopt their racist views as well, or you turn out the complete opposite.

Those poor homeless folks deserve it either way. If they had the right mentality, like the great dr. Ben Carson said, they would have pulled themselves up by da bootstraps without begging for handouts.

Usually the ones that have well paying jobs that support the Republican Party or Trump don't have social media or rarely use it js
Mainly I find them to agree with the tenants of low taxation and cutting off welfare, and also stricter immigration quotas.
Whenever I tell them that conservatism technically should include the decrease of spending in also military spending, I get differing responses in that. The usual response though is that "security is #1 priority", but how much security do you really need?
I find that our freedoms and rights have been sacrificed way too much for a sense of security in the recent decade and a half.

The correct qualifier for the people you describe is "authoritarian"
Do you know who the most paid public workers in dictatorships are? Law enforcement and military. They are the ones who get salary raises when every other sector of the economy gets a pay cut, and the reason for that is that in the absence of a strong institutional framework (that is weak laws, weak organizations protecting the public interest, and weak people), they control the only means to topple the ruling regime: weapons. So to keep them quiet and on the side of the ruling apparatus, their checks stay fat.
The "security first" argument only works here because people are too ignorant about the outside world to realize that all these countries America is bringing "freedom" and "democracy" to are exactly "security first" states.

does this include ending artificial, anti-capitalist pro-socialist programs such as rent control?
