Honestly i really think it is a different understanding of the politics in general, and that those who understand or have the more educated perspective are those perhaps being referred to, or maybe it's just workers who belong to functioning unions that know, together they are more powerful than alone against a rude capitalist machine that cares not for people but only profit. "Ultimately, power to the people is what all of our progressive efforts have to be about."

Agreed most americans have little understanding of socialism or progressive politics, and indeed i put you in that group as well. I hope one day you will understand.<br /><br />peac.GEFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01146744056187558931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3311142607743131364.post-32684675918355004062010-06-16T11:38:03.632-04:002010-06-16T11:38:03.632-04:00Glen, you honestly believe that Americans truly un...Glen, you honestly believe that Americans truly understand what progressivism is all about? What about socialism? Where has socialism worked to the point that you are willing to bring it to the US? When has government intervention into our lives ever been a good thing? Even though it is not what socialism stands for, it can only be implemented through strong governmental intrusion on personal freedoms.Sethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17372220827039035848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3311142607743131364.post-12636649651980211402010-06-16T09:58:12.278-04:002010-06-16T09:58:12.278-04:00seth i believe you are wrong on all accounts. your...seth i believe you are wrong on all accounts. your opinion is appreciated but your indoctrination... i don't agree with anything you said.GEFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01146744056187558931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3311142607743131364.post-3782284949993762562010-06-16T09:22:55.835-04:002010-06-16T09:22:55.835-04:00Because it has worked everywhere else it has been ...Because it has worked everywhere else it has been implemented... Socialism takes away personal responsibility and everything falls after that. The current system may not be the answer, but socialism certainly isn't.<br /><br />About the term progressive, I doubt the average American even knows the meaning of that term in a political sense and react positively to it because 'progress' tends to have a positive connotation. Don't forget, George W. Bush and John McCain are just as progressive as Barack Obama is, he is just open about it.Sethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17372220827039035848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3311142607743131364.post-92132322035518224302010-06-16T03:11:44.021-04:002010-06-16T03:11:44.021-04:00Very informative post.
