How Far Left Have the Dems Gone


Hagar

Recommended Posts

The answer is probably different depending on who you ask.  The real answer needs to be based on pertinent information.  For me it’s as simple as this - When a man who I considered a flaming liberal, Bill Maher, sounds like a conservative talking negatively about the Democrat Party, they’ve gone w a y to far left.  Imo, the Dems are off the Right/Left scale.  Left has historically identified liberals.  What the Dems are today is simply Socialist/Communist.  To them a liberal is a conservative.

Remember 20 years ago Bernie Sanders was considered a far left loon even by democrats.  Now he's the poster boy for them.

No doubt.  Probably fill up this Forum.

So far left that if the earth was flat, they’d be off the edge.

kind of a loaded question.  there are a lot of moderate democrats still out there, and the ultra left faction in the democratic party is causing a rift that is going to lead to the right taking back control this midterm.  the problem we're running into is that the youngest generations of liberals are generally going the farthest left, meaning they've still got 50+ years to vote (and 20+ years to birth new ultra-liberals).

By then the Gulags will be in operation - unless the old saying, “You’re a liberal in your 20’s or you don’t have a heart, and a conservative in your 30’s or you don’t have a brain” holds true.  We can only hope.

Democrats want to federalize elections so they can secure the right to cheat, not the right to vote.

That’s my opinion also.  Only 10 years ago I’d thought this opinion lunacy. Today, and after listening to Biden’s speech yesterday, there’s no doubt in my mind.  Ironic that to enter the Dem Nat Convention, you’re required to show ID, but they want to say you’re for voter suppression to require an ID to vote.  Their resistance to Voter ID has, to my knowledge, only one purpose, as you said, to secure the right to cheat. 
I’ve ask before with no response, but if any of you can think of another reason to not require ID, please post it.

I would actually venture to guess that the majority of democratic voters are what we would call moderate or not extreme left.

The problem is that they are so eaten up with party affiliation, just like pulling for your favorite football team, but they are blinded to what is happening.

There was a time going back to the Great Depression that  the Democrats claimed to be the party of the “working man”. They were for unionization and the Republicans were for a big business and not having forced unions. My best friend growing up and his family were absolutely Democrats and I heard his father say how could a working man ever vote for a Republican.

I think that much of that thought continues through this day even with evidence to the contrary. I think the problem is not what the average working democrat believes but what he is told is the truth. Like in the Wizard of Oz, ignore the man behind the curtain….

Would any Democrats or Biden Voters like to publicly thank the Biden Regime for the 7% tax increase they received this past year. 7% is the highest inflation increase in a year since 1982. Let’s Go Brandon!

Biden is wrecking the US economy!

 

Price increases over last year (CPI report)...

Gasoline: +49.6%

Used Cars: +37.3%

Gas Utilities: +24.1%

Meats/Fish/Eggs: +12.5%

New Cars: +11.8%

Food at home: +6.5%

Electricity: +6.3%

Food away from home: +6.0%

Apparel: +5.8%

Transportation: +4.2%

Shelter: +4.1%

 

Overall CPI: +7%

    • That there’s not a single thread on the fact that the Republican nominee is on trial for paying off a porn star with whom he had an affair while the future First Lady was carrying said nominee’s child.    I remember back when the dirty, no-good Dems sacked Gary Hart over something similar. Same thing with John Edwards and later Anthony Weiner.    But y’all keep pretending God is on your side, lol. 
    • I hear what you’re saying, BUT… that hammers the hell out of poor people and the ones with multiple properties don’t eat any more than the poor ones. In fact, you’d basically just be taxing a lot of peoples’ EBT payments. The government  can’t get ahead by taxing what they’re already borrowing to give to people.    I think well off people should pay more… but the scale as it exists is broken.    For the sake of argument, my mom’s house in Groves is valued at $125k. 2/1/1 on a slab.  Her tax bill is $850/year. Without exemptions, her bill would be 3200. It’s right on JCAD’s website. The problem is this…. If someone tries to rent out an identical house, they’d expect to get, what… $1200/month? If you take into account that homeowners/windstorm/flood is a minimum of another $2k per year, you’d need $5k a year just to cover the taxes and insurance. That’s four months (1/3 of the year) just to cover those costs, not counting a potential mortgage payment. But then everybody cries about how expensive rents are… you can’t tax the hell out of non-homestead property to make up for gifts given to homeowners in the form of big tax cuts. It just doesn’t work.    Ten acres in Lumberton? I’ve got a buddy with 10 acres in Lumberton on HWY 69. Prime property… it’s his retirement plan. Sale it one day and cash in. The CAD decided that it no longer qualifies for a special use valuation (timber) and stripped his “exemption.” His 2023 tax bill jumped from $25 to $22,000…. It’s insane.  
    • I’m curious what happened… they aren’t even in full pads yet. 
    • They’re going to have win almost all remaining games and get finals of tournament to think about an at-large. When LU was in the WAC, Grand Canyon got an at-large after New Mexico St came out of nowhere to win conference tournament. Grand Canyon had a dang good resume that year. It can happen, but resume wise isn’t in their favor.
