Good stuff.

Ultimately, money goes where it is treated well.

And so do jobs.

The way AOC and her pack of "progressives" ran off Amazon and several thousand jobs that AVERAGED $150,000 was disturbing, naive and narcissistic.

The "progressives" are to the Democrats, what the "tea party" is to the GOP - ideological-absolutist nut-jobs.

The tea party movement was healthy for the country as, born out of frustration, it established a voice for a group who was producing for those who were not. "Progressives" (which is the most deliberately misleading title in the history of the English language) hate the concept of true freedom, liberty and equality. They describe anything resembling those things as immoral, when in fact progressive Democratic policies are immoral to the core. Americans should be able to do what they wish with what they earn. They should be able to like who they like and dislike who they want too. Republicans lose sight of these concepts as well. Their social ideas fly in the face of liberty and free choice. America was not built on Christian values. The colonists fled their countries of origin to rid themselves from oppression. This country wasn't established by the pilgrims though, it was established by our founding fathers in the 1770s, and while most of them were indeed Christian,the principles which were memorialized both in the declaration of Independence and in our constitution were based on liberty, or in other words, allowing American citizens to be who they wanted to be, pray to who they wanted to pray to, support themselves and their families how they wanted to support them, as long as it did not infringe on the rights of others.

Progressives want to completely eliminate those concepts. Those are the values that we need to protect. They need to be protected from both the Democrats and the Republicans. Mostly the Democrats though. LOL.

Unfortunately, the extreme hardcore left is not at all a fringe within the Democratic party. The Democratic party has become the party of hardcore extreme left-wingers who describe themselves now as progressive, which is a positive sounding word translating to "anti-American". John F Kennedy would be appalled at these concepts, and most assuredly wood separate himself from any of what is being pitched by virtually every Democratic politician in federal government for sure.

The schools and the media have brainwashed Americans in a way perhaps most akin to the Chinese re-education camps. It may take Venezuela like reality to change things. Unfortunately, is history has proven too many times already, that is too late.

What brovol said. I don't equate the Tea Party with the far Left which controls the Democrat Party now. And the GOP is broad based, we have no wing of extremists controlling the dialogue.
