If the leftist elites still believe that the USA is the sole obstacle to world socialism, they won’t stop destroying it.
This nonsense where the heads of the Republicrats think they can govern by appeasing 50.1% of the voting population is ridiculous.
I heard the most disturbing commercial yesterday pitching ObamaCare (it sounded like one of the state-sponsored plans, possibly for NY); the propagandist/sales bimbo went through some “frequently asked questions”, and didn’t miss a beat when describing that health insurance was now required for everyone. As I heard that, I wondered how many people were realizing for the first time how this expensive new tax was going to impact them (thankfully I’m OK - for now).
Unfortunately, I’ve come to the same assessment.
Also unfortunately, we appear to be headed for the future of which you speak.
