frick this

quote:

In a poll conducted a few days ago by NBC News / Wall Street Journal, a record 57% of Americans responded that they want MORE government in their lives, and that the government should be doing more to solve people’s problems.

That’s the highest percentage since they started asking this question in 1995.

In fact, 57% is nearly double what people responded in the mid-90s.

The number is probably closer to 90%.

The differences are in how different people want their "more government" manifested.

Sad. I need to be supported more important than I support myself.

We have likely reached the point of no return

Trump as president is a nice reprieve, but I'm struggling to see if last...

It's no surprise that people indoctrinated in Government Public Schools will grow up to vote for more government in their lives.

During the GE I got into a deep political discussion with 2 Bernie Bots at a backyard BBQ, when it was all hashed out they finally admitted they wanted socialism.
