When our Founding Fathers established America, we were divided evenly Left and Right. The Founders knew that having no government would create chaos and anarchy. Likewise, BIG GOVERNMENT (total government) would create a totalitarian state where the government ruled over your lives. The Founders established America about in the middle of the political spectrum. This gave Americans the most freedom without too much government control over us. For simplification, we use the following diagram:
We know that there was no Democratic or Republican Party in 1776, but this diagram is just for the sake of illustration. America was evenly divided ideologically. We started with government placed in the middle. Not too big, and not too small. Just right!
The Progressive Movement
Over time the American government grew. As it did, there was a shift ideologically towards the Left (they want big government). During the Progressive movement, ideologically, American culture began shifting faster towards the left. This was roughly between the 1890s through the 1920s. Here is a diagram to illustrate this shift:
Note: When the Progressive Era ended, America did NOT rebound back to its starting point in the middle, but rather it stayed just where it was ideologically in the diagram. The net result was a change in our culture. We had shifted towards the left and we accepted more government interventions and government controls over our lives. This was gradual, so Americans didn't feel threatened.
America Today
Progressives never went away. Progressives are in every part of our daily lives today! They have continued to have their influence over wanting Big Government and more centralized control. Consequently, America has continued our gradual shift leftwards towards Totalitarianism. However, in the 1960s this shift was much more radical and we, as Americans, resisted. The change was too fast and the Progressive change wanted a violent revolution. But the Progressives never gave up. Instead, they began following their agenda of promoting their changes into our society. They have permeated all facets of our culture slowly over time. Since the 1960s the shift has continued to the following:
This is where we are today. No wonder we don't like both political parties! They have morphed over time and no longer reflect their original ideological beliefs. There has been a huge shift leftwards over time. This has taken over 100 years. Americans haven't felt threatened because this has been a gradual eating away of our original culture.
Thank Obama
When we elected the most radical (Marxist) President in the history of America, we began to notice this shift because Obama is pushing the Progressive philosophy harder and faster than ever before. Jamming ObamaCare down our throats, nationalizing Banks and the automobile industry all helped wake up Americans. Now we notice this change and feel that HE is taking America in the wrong direction.
It's NOT just Obama. Look around you. It's our whole culture that's changing. Obama is just accelerating it so he can take us to HIS vision of TOTAL GOVERNMENT and what comes with it!
It's Not TOO LATE!
We are getting very close to the point of no return. If we do not stop this Progressive/Marxist change America as we know it will no longer exist! Our freedoms and our liberties will be stolen and we will all be under the control of the government. It's all there in plain sight.
Action To Take
Start re-educating your kids. They are being filled with Progressive propaganda in public schools like gay education in elementary school and that Capitalism is bad. Talk to your friends, family and co-workers. Discuss the importance of this shift and make it clear that America is being dismantled a piece at a time - only if we allow it to happen! Stand up for what you believe in and don't accept these Progressive values. Unite and stick-up for YOUR beliefs. Otherwise, it will be YOUR OWN FAULT.
WAKE UP NOW or face the consequences of your apathy!
