The Partisan Divide on Issues

Neo-liberalism as enacted by Reagan, Bush and Thatcher is the ideology that primarily says laziness or lack of character causes personal economic failure, so taxes should be limited or repealed for welfare programs.

I wouldn't have signed those trade deals either, so that opinion of yours does nothing to define the difference between you and such liberals as myself.

You falsely label your ideology as "American," and then ask whether we need New England. Last time I checked, they were among the most American of all parts of the USA, given that they started the Revolution and were some of the first colonial settlements. If anything is most-truly American, it is the Native American settlements that have been restricted to federally-dominated reservations. "America" is not any particular race, ancestry or religion or any particular political party or ideology. The USA is the constitution and declaration of independence, and it is liberal values.

You have definite opinions, but you don't know how to label or define them.

I don't have much of a stake in the global economy. I don't do any business with China. I know that the cost of a Honeywell product remained the same and increased annually as it did before after they uprooted and moved they're factories to Mexico. Yes, New England still has historical significance as mentioned. Right now, we are doing what's right to keep loved ones alive like we did after 9/11. I figure we'll be back at it again and fucking each other over as much as we can and continue having it both ways until progressive system can no longer function. It looks like the stars were right. I have to give credit for being right. I think the progressives are going to drag their feet and cause all kinds of issues and problems.
