Changing Democrats

 

It would appear that not only have the Democrats moved from being moderate to liberal to radical to socialistic and have no problem stating that the people they dislike or do not agree with should be assassinated...  while at the same time, vehemently state that President Trump is destroying Democracy.


I was a Kennedy DEMOCRAT back in the 1960s and while in 1981, after receiving my MBA from the Babcock Graduate School of Management at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, I realized that my mentality and beliefs shifted from being liberal to being conservative.


My conservative beliefs revolved around:

  • Low Taxes
  • Small Federal Government
  • Greater States Rights
  • Strong Military
  • Balanced Budget
  • Low to No National Debt


I understand, to some degree, why the Democrats believe what they do, but I don't think their beliefs are viable.


But, what really bothers me about the Democrats is the fact they want to DESTROY CONSERVATIVES, to the point that the Democrats will never lose control to them in any elections where the Democrats lose their majority control.


We need BALANCED POLITICAL PARTIES and let the people decide who they want to govern them.  We don't need a system where the people can only elect one party to govern them.


However, while I am against SOCIALISM, I am also against:

  • The Second Amendment
  • Tax Shelters for the Wealthy
  • Large Non-profits not paying taxes
  • Biased Media
  • Biased Colleges and Universities

My concern is also undermined by the direction our country and the world is taking with AI and humanoid robots.  Because we are moving in this direction, it is obvious that robots will replace a substantial number of jobs, that will force the government to offer a guaranteed annual income.


That income guarantee will move us closer into the realm of socialism but not because of the Democrats but because of technology.
