k rant over!🙁
This happened because back in the 50s and 60s we allowed our institutions of higher learning to be infiltrated by American hating leftists. Those institutions propagated our public school system with American hating leftists teachers. Now the entire education system turns out American Hating leftists who go on to create the new companies etc.
Because, to be fair, a lot of these ideas were turned down by conservatives. Remember, a lot of traditional conservatives (the kind now running around clutching pearls and ‘viewing [Trump] with alarm’ and having fainting spells about the lack of civility) actually are totally conservative as in not wanting to even entertain new ideas.
Case in point: HP decided that they didn’t want that ‘microcomputer thing’ that Steve Wozniak, an HP employee at the time was proposing. HP’s very conservative management said that Wozniak’s invention was ‘non-viable’ and nobody would ever buy it. Wozniak said later, “HP rejected five separate proposals of mine for a PC. To HP, the people who would buy a computer were the people already using computers—and they already had $10,000 machines for that corporate market. They couldn’t see why consumers would ever want one.”
Steve Wozniak took his rejection, went into business with a couple of other guys, including one Steve Jobs, and decided to make them on his own. Maybe you’ve heard of the company he started? It’s called Apple.
Fortunately, *because* of Apple and others, that stuck-in-the-mud syndrome is rapidly diminishing, just like the GOPe is.
It is because they crave that power over others... and then produce a “product” that enables them to do so.
Conservatives seek to mind their own business, not others’, so they try to make a tangible product.
Trump is not an ideological conservative; he is an instinctual conservative: He is pragmatic, and productive. He does not produce phony paper profits like Wall Street Willard (The Rat) Romney. No, he is Main Street Donald Trump, and he builds real buildings: actual real estate, actual physical product, actual inherent value.
Facebook is what? It is essentially collectivistic narcissism masquerading as a real product. It is enormously overvalued (and its value would be determined more realistically if it were owned by a flaming conservative).
Also, despite their Big Lies, leftists absolutely love not only power but money: They love it so much that they want to take all of it from everyone. It is called communism.
The most wealthy national politicians are predominantly Democrats, not Republicans.
Finally, there is the long-known principle that any organization that is not explicitly conservative inevitably becomes leftist. That is because leftists exist to infiltrate and subvert; conservatives do not.
