Tocqueville observed how liberty and the need for social cooperation give people incentives to be virtuous. “I have often seen Americans make great and real sacrifices to the public welfare; and I have noticed a hundred instances in which they hardly ever failed to lend faithful support to one another."

IOW, the civil society as Mark Levin reminds us.

FDR, LBJ, Bam and decades of horrible laws and court decisions have nearly destroyed the civil society and blown a wide gap in the front lines of our freedom; the rat hordes are pouring through.

There has been a concerted effort to replace “inalienable rights” with rights granted by Man.

It’s a question of Faith.

Faith in man or Faith in Government.

Undermining faith in man has been extremely effective by creating uncertainly through relativism, multiculturalism and political correctness.

Teaching generations of our youth that you can’t “judge” and right and wrong are a matter of perspective, has left them without the structure of authority. A parent if you will.

Therefore the desire for structure has left them with a choice between the two evils of government control.

Their choice is between a euro-centric socialism (all caring providers) and what has been effectively miss categorized as Fascism. And we all know Fascism is evil.

The left no longer believes that individuals can manage their own affairs. This is not to suggest that they think “they” need help, it suggests the acceptance of the “narcissist within” and the elitism that follows.
