As any with awareness should recognize, the left today intends us to live crowded together in smaller spaces with less stuff, on simpler diets and driving smaller cars while using more public transportation and a lot less energy. Or put another way, to live in increasing poverty. That is happening. At the same time, our governors are awarding themselves much more information and control of our affairs while restricting the scope of our individual decisions. Americans can’t compete anymore, so we are being impoverished back into competition with the rest of the world. We’ve forgotten that we worked our way out of poverty by the efforts of free and creative individuals unrestricted by government, the opposite of our present direction. If you appreciate irony, note that both the rise and the present descent of the American middle class have been heralded as “progress.” It has been millennia since Esau’s ancient bargain, yet we still sell our birthrights for bowls of watery government stew, produced at our expense. And it pleases the Progressives.
