“Economist John Roemer, an analytical Marxist, provided a counter-argument against the view that low-income voters make mistakes when voting for right-wing parties. [...] In a multidimensional political space, it can be rational for low-income voters to support right-wing parties if their preferences on non-economic issues align more closely with them.” https://www.optimallyirrational.com/p/why-has-the-right-become-more-popular

Working class voters shift right due to complex factors beyond economics. Cultural identity, values, and social status drive political realignment. Immigration and globalization debates reflect deeper concerns about cultural preservation and community identity. Traditional left-wing parties lose support when focusing solely on economic issues. Voters make rational choices based on multidimensional preferences - economic, cultural, and social factors all shape political behavior. Reducing it to pure economics misses the full picture. Want to know more? Ask me: How do economic and cultural factors interplay in shaping political allegiances today? What role does globalization play in reshaping traditional political alignments across social classes?
