The End Of Equality (Mickey Kaus Dissects The Amnesty Push)

One of the most incisive, astute observers of the growing income inequality and stratification that characterizes large portions of this nation’s economy is writer Mickey Kaus. Unique among his colleagues for being a prominent voice within the mainstream media and yellow dog Democrat who opposes the mass, unskilled immigration which the institutional left and its press organs glorify, he know writes a regular column for the conservative Washington D.C. online news magazine The Daily Caller.

Kaus’s voice is essential, because it represents the last concrete manifestation of New Deal liberalism untethered to the Democratic Party’s post-1965 infatuation with empowering “new” minorities, even at the expense of the working class Americans who were once the indelible anchor of that party’s base. The historical transformation of the Democratic Party from an ostensible ally-if not tribune-of blue collar and impoverished Americans into a political force comprised primarily of servitors to corporate interests and ethnic lobbyists is no more apparent than in the current “debate” over enacting yet another sweeping legislative amnesty.

Consider this analysis of what drives collectivist/egalitarian "thought" processes:

Compassion Or Compulsion?

We are going to lose everything, unless we wake up and realize that there is nothing idealistic, altruistic, fair, kind or acceptable, in what the Left is promoting in place of an American future. Nothing! Nothing of benefit to anyone on the planet but demagogues & scoundrels.
