On it's face they mean well. In execution it pretty much turns into whatever they want will be forced on you through the gov't. It's a very elitist and narcissistic ideology no matter how much they try to convince you they're looking out for the little guy.

Another comment that is spot on. One reason Progressivism is so popular is that in whatever "cause" you are behind, you are the enlightened one while everyone else that doesnt support your cause is backwards, ignorant, and/or stupid.
You dont get the same kind of feelings for supporting individual liberty(although I will admit some libertarians do come across as condescending at times). What you are judged on is your merit. If you have nothing to show for your own self, you have no way to feel like you are above anyone else. This doesnt fly with most people nowadays.
