OK, since the entirety of my very rational arguments have been ignored and I don't want to have to repeat myself to someone unable to comprehend the logic thereof, I'll respond to your current post.
Saying the country was built upon a limited government is a pretty dumb way of addressing our reality. The country was also built on institutionalized bigotry too. Should that have remained our way of doing things? Consider, if you're capable of independent thought, how much every aspect of human culture has changed since the country was founded. This is why conservatives get accused of being delusionoids. They like to pretend that change is unnecessary or avoidable when it's clearly not.
Our country was FAR from perfect at it's founding and the way all of you clown-servatives keep ignoring that is a glaring indication of how ignorant and stagnant your thinking is. Furthermore, to talk about limited government after you guys put a man in the Whitehouse who recognizes NO limit to his authority is comically dumb.
So, why don't you, rather than making saints out of slavers and Christian dominionists, accept that this country is FAR better, in very many ways, than it was at it's founding and moving the country backwards is reckless, ignorant and literally reeks of nostalgia for a pre-human rights era.
Understand, I write these truths with absolutely ZERO hope that you will ever give a **** about making America great, only returning to a dumber, more hateful time.
There is no logic in your argument nor any understanding of the governments we have as you totally ignore state and local that is closest to the people. Because your state won't implement what you want you go to the federal bureaucrats for relief instead of realizing your state has term limits and you can change that state government every four years. Instead you buy what the left tells you and demands federal overreach and social engineering along with the 21 trillion dollar debt you want funded by those evil rich people. You have no understanding of what you ask because the rich can never fund your liberal spending appetite
Your lack of understanding of basic personal responsibility is staggering and a true federal bureaucrat. No understanding of our history or what our Founders created so you buy what you are told. Bigotry was indeed part of the problem but has been addressed. Liberalism had its place but now over steps its responsibilities as we have laws protecting bigotry
Unfortunately that perfect utopia you people want doesn't exist. This group of Progressives are having the same results as the past groups of progressives. when you create dependence you destroy incentive and destruction of incentive creates the economic malaise we had the last 8 years.
People are fighting to get into this country while people like you are tearing it down. There is no movement backwards unless you call instilling personal responsibility into this country moving backwards. You write a lot and say absolutely nothing. You write a lot and ignore the Constitution, basic civics, and history. Research is a foreign concept to you as is an understanding of the concept of neighbor helping neighbor. You are simply civics challenged and totally ignore personal responsibilities and the true role of the state and local governments. You write no truths but rather only opinions
