THE REVOLT AGAINST THE MASSES: HOW LIBERALISM HAS UNDERMINED THE MIDDLE CLASS
In his new book, Fred Siegel rewrites the history of modern American liberalism. He posits that what we think of liberalism today began not with Progressivism or the New Deal but rather in the wake of the post-WWI disillusionment with American society.
In the 1920s, the first writers and thinkers to call themselves liberals adopted the hostility to bourgeois life that had long characterized European intellectuals of both the left and the right. The aim of liberalism’s foundational writers and thinkers was to create an American aristocracy of sorts, to provide a sense of hierarchy and order associated with European statism.
caution: we have entered the new liberal zone and our grandkids will be paying for it along with kids yet unborn.
ReplyDeleteThis is just more Communist Propaganda.."income gaps"...."the gilded age" "self funded" - (YOUR taxes paying for someone else's benefits). The radicals are moral radicals who want to remove all of the foundations upon which this unbelievably successful society was built upon. The liberals at heart, are anti-religious. Through the super wealthy Eastern European Socialist George Soros...Mr. "Captialism for me Socialism for you... ($70 million or so just to lobby for legalizing pot smoking more stoned drivers killing people and more young lives ruined).
ReplyDeleteThe deficit is declining under Obama......well after spiking spending to levels that would have been considered insane just ten years prior and then stopping additional spikes....I guess he lowered the deficit - after he raised the deficit.....Hmmm kinda like your wife spends $1,000 more to your credit card for five straight months and then says oh good news honey.. I only spent $500 more this month. I am really cutting back.
Liberals like to say that the economy is better when it is run by them. Them are typically lawyers, and career politicians. People who have never launched a successful business and had to meet payrolls, cut costs, and keep cusomers happy. They just leverage votes to get in office and hand out other peoples money as goodie bags for the masses. Then they try to tell you that either the Republican who runs and is pro-business and likely has run one or several businesses successfully - that they DONT know what it takes to create a climate for business in the state or country? Makes no sense. Oberweis has been a very successful business owner by providing excellent quality products that people CHOOSE to buy. Does anyone think that Dick Durbin, or the State of ILLinois could provide such a high quality product so efficiently and so cheaply? Of course not. Milk would be available Mondays and Thursdays only and you could only buy two gallons and they would cost $15. per gallon. Capitalism WORKS and socialism has NEVER worked...as Cubans, Nicaraguans, Ukrainians, Russians, Czechs, Polish.....and list goes on and on and on and on....and by the way if Democrats are the party of the little guy then why do they enthusiastically support slicing babies into little pieces while still in the womb...to be thrown in the trash? ...all for someone elses convenience?
The leftist Demonrat plan is to dumb down the masses which they are achieving quite well through our horrible public schools. Open the borders to Central and South Americans who will come to get benefits in this country that would be unheard of in their own. Once they are here and have been herded into a block of people they will be given amnesty, voting rights and will deliver votes to the Democrats. The Democrats are using "diversity" as a tool to craft what they hope to be a minority majority coalition. It is at its core anti-white, anti-American. This is their plan. The Prez himself was a community organizer. Now that community is the entire country. I thought Democrats cared about the average Joe? Why are they supporting importing more largely unskilled and uneducated workers into this country? Especially when we have unemployment so much higher than in the past thirty years? They are demented and we need to vote them out!
