Proper politics isn't to vote to "better" anyone, but to leave everyone alone to their own actions as much as possible.
Voting in this way (to try to better some group) means you are forcing someone to do what they don't want to do, or rather, you know better how they should live their lives and spend their money than they do.
Politics means deliberately making things better for a few by deliberately making them much worse for many.
