What Republicans do
Nothing is more dangerous today than the libertarian economics credos that people like Galen have been pushing these last 40 years. I think it's the main reason people vote Republican, although the religious right and fear of foreigners aspects are also major factors. When the people vote Republican, the government cannot act to protect the people from the misdeeds of big business, and it cannot provide leadership on national priorities. Corruption and incompetence are rewarded, because the only priority is lower taxes and upholding the myths of self-reliance and less government. Because these ideas are so attractive, this libertarian-economics ideology is the most dangerous. Who wants to be in favor of "big government" that "uses force" to "steal my money to create dependency?" And yet it's really the big bosses who keep our society poor and stagnant for most people, our environment and climate polluted, and our politics corrupted. Ethnic groups are scapegoated and blamed for high taxes and regulations and for all our problems. A government run by liberals and prodded by the people is not our only safeguard of a prosperous, rewarding and safe society, but without it we are left at the mercy of the wolves and brigands.
