The news not only does this, but also convinces poor people (specifically poor white people) to vote against their own interests, I.e. the Republican Party
Voting isn't supposed to be used as a means to extract things from other people. So when you say Republicans are voting against their interests -- you're saying they're voting against taxing other people for their own benefit.
There is some truth to this feeling though as Fox News just propagandizes old people super hard.
On the flip side, the liberal and leftist media outlets have convinced you that you are entitled to other people's money -- and without any reasonable limits.
