As I have been writing here, the resistance to the Progressive agenda has to do with the nature of the American people. The ancestors of most Americans left Feudal or Elitist regimes, to come here for freedom. By nature Americans don’t like totalitarian movements and agendas of control. This is an ingrained instinct the Progressives had underestimated, when they attempted to impose their Eugenics based Health-Care agenda.
WASHINGTON — Recent town-hall uproars weren’t just about health care. They were also eruptions of concern that the government is taking on too much at once.
That suggests trouble for the president and his party, and fears of losses in next year’s midterm election are likely to shape the Democrats’ fall agenda.
At August’s town-hall meetings, voters often started with complaints about health care, only to shift to frustrations about all the other things President Barack Obama and the Democrats have done or tried to do since January. The $787 billion economic-stimulus package, the government-led rescue of General Motors Corp. and climate-change legislation all came in for criticism.
Read the rest.
Americans don’t trust the concept of an intrusive Government in their lives. Progressives have tried to spin it as if they want to help people. In reality, many realize then this is an attempt by an elite to impose control on us. It is being rejected because Americans don’t want Neo-Feudalism.
