“Jewish brothers and sisters are waking up.”

I wish I shared your optimism, but because one non-commie (actually a true American in the historical sense) in a Reform Jewish “temple” invokes the Golden Rule (he who has the gold ...) is almost certainly no reason to assume the Jewish devotion to things collectivist is actually coming to an end.

My father was probably the only Republican Jew in Tampa when I was growing up. The Miami Jewish population had a few, but they were people like Robert Russel and others who had understood the essential aspects of America sufficiently to become financially successful in business.

I note with regret that most Jews with some financial success are in professions either directly part of the government or are professionals hired by government.

Lawyers are, of course, part of what I would dub “government”.

With so many involved with government, it is little wonder they see government as, in its essence good, and want more of it.

To support, let alone profit from, government acting outside the strict limits defined by the Founders is, arguably, treason.

Though what you say is true to a certain extent, you are exaggerating a bit, GladesGuru.

I know of a Jewish lawyer who is a constitutionalist, Republican, and member of the Federalist Society who litigates cases against government in an earnest effort to vindicate the constitutional rights of his clients. Challenging government in the courtroom, though not always successful, is preferable to supporting government tyranny schemes or doing nothing to stop them.

Certainly Jewish doctors as a whole are not working with government and by and large oppose ObamaCare and similar socialist medicine schemes.

...one non-commie (actually a true American in the historical sense) in a Reform Jewish “temple” invokes the Golden Rule (he who has the gold ...)

Invoking the "Golden Rule" in this instance is to to be applauded. We need more Jews - and more non-Jews - to invoke the "Golden Rule" against the left and their propagandists like Wasserman-Schultz. Too many well-to-do folks either sit on their hands or even financially support the destruction of the very society which enabled them to gain their wealth in the first place.
