AMERICA NEEDS TO BECOME INFORMED OF THE GOP'S TRUE AGENDA

AMERICA NEEDS TO BECOME INFORMED OF THE GOP'S TRUE AGENDA
.
One of the biggest problems that we have in the country today is that far too many Americans are less than informed about the Republican Party’s true agenda. Conservatives aren’t simply out to modify public policy, they’re out to completely change our form of government, and that has ALWAYS been the case since the days of our founding fathers. One angry liberal told me the following:

“The problems are not being caused by the GOP only, Democrats have also helped them strip you of your rights.”

Response:

Dorian, you're talking politics -You don't like neo-liberalism, and neither do I - but what I'm talking about is a historic philosophy that goes far beyond the intra-Democratic fight between the neo-liberal and Social Democratic factions within the Democratic Party. What I'm talking about is the fact that conservatives have ALWAYS been the domestic enemy of working class Americans. It goes all the way back to our founding fathers. So what the Democrats are squabbling over is insignificant compared to the GOP. The GOP is not simply out to change public policy, conservatives don't believe in democracy as a philosophical concept at all (except among the ruling class), so they’re out to change our fundamental  way of life. The leaders of the conservative movement believe that an aristocratic class should control the nation, and that working-class Americans were only put here to attend to their comfort and needs, and they ALWAYS have. Working class conservatives have just been duped. That's why they're primarily made up of the undereducated.
.
Alexander Hamilton, one of this nation’s leading conservative thinkers among our founding fathers believed that the rich and "wellborn" should be given a permanent share in government. He said:
.
“All communities divide themselves into the few and the many. The first are the rich and wellborn, the other the mass of the people…. The people are turbulent and changing; they seldom judge or determine right. Give therefore to the first class a distinct, permanent share in government. They will check the unsteadiness of the second, and as they cannot receive any advantage by a change, they therefore will ever maintain good government.”
.
Hamilton supported a lifetime appointment of the President after being selected by congress (or "the rich and wellborn"), instead of the people as a whole - can you just imagine that, Donald Trump FOR LIFE!!!? But America dodged that bullet during the Federalist Convention that took place between May 14 and September 17, 1787.
.
Since most of the founding fathers came to America to escape the aristocratic class system in Europe, Hamilton’s desire to preserve the class system was resoundingly defeated in favor of an unfettered democracy, but that didn’t mean that people of Hamilton’s point of view would quietly go away. Instead, they lowered their profile and continued to pursue their agenda by using their wealth, power, and various strategies to divide the people to achieve their goal, and that’s what we see today. That accounts for why conservatives tend to specialize in obstruction, greed, anger, and division, and that's also why the American people ALWAYS suffer under conservative governance.

So make no mistake about it, there's a huge difference between the Democrats and Republicans. At least Democrats have to PRETEND to believe in equality, but conservatives have NEVER bought into true democracy. That's why they have absolutely no problem with voter suppression, giving themselves a $1.5 trillion tax cut and making the working class pay for it by taking away their Social Security and Medicare, and many other grossly undemocratic policies. Again, they're out to create an aristocratic class and turn the average American into part of a proletariat with the primary function of attending to their needs. Any American who wants to see a perfect model of the conservative vision in action need only look back to the Great Depression, or within the class system of our current corporations.
