Does The Left Believe In Choice?

Those that set the agenda for the Democrat party claim to have faith in the American people. Do they really mean it?  They constantly demand that women should have control of their bodies when it comes to abortion.  They call themselves "pro-choice".  But, are they?

These are the same elites who do not believe that you can be trusted to know what job and what job conditions are good for you. They must meddle, because you are not smart enough to walk away from low pay, long hours and unsafe conditions. They must interject themselves into the individual contractual relationship between employer and employee.

These elites do not trust you to make the right decision on what vehicle to purchase. Instead of realizing that car manufacturers make the cars and trucks that consumers want to buy, they want to restrict the types of automobiles that can be sold. Why? Because car makers are greedy and you are too stupid to purchase a safe, fuel efficient, environmentally friendly car.  If left alone, you might not make a wise choice.

These elites do not believe that you can make proper choices concerning what you eat. They seek to regulate McDonald's and other fast food places to the extent that their advertising would be restricted and their exposure to liability is increased. Why? Because you are incapable of making appropriate food choices for you and your children. 

These same elites want more Federal standards for education and oppose vouchers to encourage school choice. They don't even believe that you can decide what is best for your child's learning.

They oppose lower taxes because the Great White Father in Washington can spend YOUR money better than you can. In fact most domestic governmental programs are full of "Father Knows Best" paternalism.

These elites claim to "trust the people". They really only trust you when it comes to killing a baby.  Otherwise, they know best.

The NEODEMOCRATS and NEOLIBERALS profess to be of the "let the people choose" mindset, but they really aren't. What they say is not always what they mean:
WHEN THEY SAY/THIS IS WHAT THEY MEAN:
"Pro-choice"/"Get an abortion."
"Disenfranchised"/"We need MORE social programs."
"The President has failed miserably..."/"Elect ANYBODY but Bush."
The NEODEMOCRATS & NEOLIBERALS cannot be trusted. Period.

Good post Steve, the Democrat Party is too leftwing. If the Democrats were able to start running the whole show the USA would look like the old Russia, probably even worse!
