I stumbled upon this trick by accident. I needed a new dentist, I had driven by a sign for a dentist that looked good. But then I searched her name and one of the top results was a website that tells you everyone’s address and political party. Since my state makes public your party registration, it didn’t surprise me too much.
I had assumes that most dentists would be Democrats (or further left) since, you know, their job is based in the fundamental belief of science. Turns out, most dentists in my area are Republican.
I went through 15-20 dentists finding they were Republican before I decided to search for “LGBT friendly dentist near me”. The first result brought up a dentist office with both dentists being Democrats. It is genuinely the best dentist office I’ve been to. There was a clear focus on training, professionalism, and ultimately doing what was right by my teeth.
I’ve been slowly switching my entire care team over to registered democrats only ever since, and I’m liking the care.
Ehh, it kind of depends on your tax bracket. Some businesses might vicariously do slightly better because Democrats tend to have healthier economies. However, that is a small bump compared to the massive tax cuts these business owners and high income earners get from Republicans.
Most local businesses aren’t getting massive cuts. They’re nowhere near the income needed to get benefits. They actually have a harder time competing against monopolistic companies because of Republicans
Not really a problem with the types of businesses we were discussing. All the struggling physicians owned clinics are already gone, what’s left are generally very successful specially clinics. Dentists are also doing very well for themselves as it’s a hard sector for any single company to monopolize. Since most of the cost is being covered by the patients themselves they have more control where they end up getting care.
Physicians and dentists are most definitely in the tax brackets that are getting the most out of the cuts. Small businesses in general got a 20% cut, and then they also got income tax reductions on top of that.
