Empiricism here is not on your side (as it has rarely ever been). The most expensive housing in New England is not in the cities - unless you count Newport. It's in the suburbs and the exburbs. The people who live in the inner cities (where housing is cheaper) tend to vote overwhelmingly Democratic. The people who live in the expensive suburban homes tend to work for defence contract companies and by and large vote Republican.

The places I've seen the most malls and vulgar shops has not been in New England (where I live now) or in California or New Mexico (where I lived for a year) or in Wisconsin (where I lived for 16 years of my life). It's been in the red states: South Dakota, Utah, Ohio. Again, empiricism so far favours the blues.

Maybe not in Hollywood, but in Pasadena (and I'm willing to bet in inner Los Angeles) apartments aren't that expensive. I lived in one for four months while my father (not to be considered upper-class) worked at CalTech. Experience has been my guide here as well. Also, I have yet to meet the Democrat who took Marxism at face-value, or who lived a hedonistic lifestyle (or could afford it). Again, experience.

C'mon man, that is a fact.
No, it is a bigoted and vicious stereotype, and it is utterly inapplicable. You haven't proven it yet, and I have plenty of hard data to disprove it.
Outlawing churches from helping the poor and needy? The Democrats I know
participate in churches helping the poor and needy. Check out the website of the 'Madison Christian Community' on Google sometime. Taking money from good and honest people to fund degenerate behaviour? I doubt it - most of the fiscal conservatives have drifted over to the Democratic Party because raising taxes will help us decrease national debt. Take a look at Clinton's fiscal policies.
That's a fact. Republicans just want to bankrupt us and rape the economy while they're at it with their reckless spending and low taxation, Reagan-style.

You should read
Soul and Society by Gary Dorrien, especially the parts pertaining to Walter Rauschenbusch, the original Social Gospeller. Communism was abhorrent to Christianity, but milder forms of Marxism were most definitely not. More abhorrent in a moral sense to the classic Christian was the idea behind capitalism that the market is God and that the poor deserve their poverty because they didn't try hard enough. Rauschenbusch was a Baptist minister who worked in Hell's Kitchen in New York City - it was during his social service ministry there that he came to embrace a Gospel-based socialism. He tried to facilitate a dialogue between the workers and their employers, but when the employers refused to sit down and talk it out, Rauschenbusch drifted toward a more unionist socialism. He thought of Christian socialism as being the great equalising factor and the basis for a humane society, as writ in his book,
Christianity and the Social Crisis.

What the heck does that mean? Morality means not going to war to further our national imperial designs, morality means funding social programmes which aid the poor, morality means defending the natural world from corporate and private predations and investing in our environment. I have yet to see the Democratic Party attack one of those on the basis of relativism, and I have yet to see the Republican Party defend them on any basis.
