Getting older rule

Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
Rule: You must post before you leave.
Basically, "people are selfish and will do what benefits them"
Except when they vote against their own interest
“Will do what they believe benefits them”
Which I'd say is a pretty right-wing sentiment
There's nothing selfish about wanting a home and a viable retirement plan. Everyone should have those things.
The way I see it, being selfish isn't inherently bad -- there's nothing wrong with looking out for number 1, provided it's not at the expense of others. There's a difference between being selfish and being greedy, of course. The latter is a pretty bad character trait, IMO.
