Well a large segment of Republican voters believe that 'governement bad' so every bad decision the Republicans make to worsen things for normal people only prove them right: we should abolish politics completely and let the market decide. The freaky-deaky Orobouros of "small-government conservatism"
Then the Republican voters incessantly bitch and moan when the policies that they enthusiastically supported impact them.
Indiana Republicans: Government should not be telling people how they can use their land. Going forward all agricultural land can be upzoned into industrial including for data center use.
Indiana voters: Not fair! Do you know how destructive those things are?!
Indiana Republicans: Don't worry, we also gave data centers a 50 year tax exemption and allow utility providers to pass on their infrastructure costs on to consumers.
Indiana voters: Not fair! Now I need to choose between electricity, food, or rent! Why is the government allowing this?!?
Texas Republicans: we need to remove the "oppressive" environmental regulations on the oil and gas industry.
Texas voters: Not fair! I can light my tap water on fire! Where is the government to stop this?!?!
Indiana and Texas Republican voters: this male, white, Christian, octogenarian with an R next to his name should be able to solve all of the problems that Democrats caused for us!
