One could only wish that liberalism would be crushed by its own dead weight. But the fact is, that like a growth of black mold or “red tide” algae, its expression keeps cropping up again and again, plaguing the less radical and more reserved among us, displaying behavior that may only be compared to that of a naughty child.

One of the things that the “Common Core” curriculum is supposed to address is “critical thinking”, but in fact, it is exactly for SUPPRESSION of critical thinking that the agenda is being introduced. Nonsense methods of teaching arithmetic, a scrubbed set of facts to be taught as “history”, and substitution of flexible thumbs for the rigors of practicing and comprehending the art of cursive writing may prepare an automaton for service in a highly regulated society, but humanity is not a beehive.

The greatest mischief that may be played upon a young child is to prepare that child for conformity in the modern world.

> Here’s Hard Truth Number 3: If you need government to set you a “living wage,” it’s because you have failed to make yourself worth a living wage. A higher minimum wage is merely a subsidy to ensure you don’t have to put in the effort necessary to earn what you want. I’m unclear why your failure to work hard, gain skills and not do the stupid things that lead a 30 year old to be making minimum wage morally compels me to give you my money.

***

That brings us to Hard Truth Number 5: Liberalism depends on a huge number of Americans being losers who can’t support themselves. Broken or nonexistent families are the root of most of society’s pathologies, and they are also essential to the Democrat demographic model. The party’s very existence depends on there being a pool of serfs desperate for handouts distributed by Democrat overlords. If 90% of Americans were self-sufficient and refused to trade their dignity for a few scraps in the form of various welfare payouts, there would be no modern Democrat Party.

^ TRUTH. Good suff...: )

"5: Liberalism depends on a huge number of Americans being losers who can’t support themselves."

5a. Therefore, because liberalism produces millions of losers who won't work, we must ignore border security so that we can exploit illegal aliens so we can have maids and hotel workers.
