IMO we're no longer dealing with ideologues chasing Utopia....The left, along with an alarming number of the alleged "right", seek the power as an end unto itself.....We're living in the historical point at which all empires have flamed out.1.You’ve heard the saying…'Going to hell in a handbasket'? Meaning: To be 'going to hell in a handbasket' is to be rapidly deteriorating - on course for disaster. It has never been more appropriate than now, under Democrat auspices.

2. Even a superficial perusal would indicate that the reason for the bulk of the Democrat policies is simply to reverse everything that Trump did……with no consideration as to whether those policies benefitted America and Americans.
And the wording above, ‘going to Hell,’ is the very same reversal, in this case, of the traditions and values of our Founders, of Judeo-Christian guidance. One side champions life, while the other side, the Democrats, have no problem with slaughter, chaos, and death.
3. In that ‘basket,’ we begin with pagan and medieval values, and follow Western Civilization’s movement toward esteeming every life, and empowering individualism over a monarchy. But remember where we started, because the Left/Democrats/Progressives are using that basket to return us to pre-history times.
4. “Unfortunately for humanity, millions of people have died trying to capture Marx’s elusive utopia. Even worse, his false prophecy of a classless world is making a dramatic comeback in the Unites States. To the social science professors, the fifty-million deaths in Russia and China had nothing to do with Marxism. No, the deaths happened because “the people in charge didn’t do things the right way.” No economic system is perfect, but once the Marxists win over the masses, the storyline becomes very predictable:
•There is initial glee once the capitalist elites are strung up on poles.
•Shortly thereafter, economic shortages begin, private companies are nationalized, and inflation skyrockets.
•Political killings occur, and the elites flee the country.
The strongman takes control under the guise of restoring social order.
•In the final chapter, there are no rich people left because everyone is poor—
except for the dictator and his cronies.”
“An American Divorce,” JN Welch.
5. Beginning with Marx, we can fill that basket with devotee’s such as Saul Alinsky, Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton….and the numerous doctrines of the Democrats that are identical to the Marxists.
Nope.....it sure isn't a 'gift basket.'

Why the Worst Get on Top - FEE
There are strong reasons for believing that what to us appear the worst features of the existing totalitarian systems are not accidental byproducts, but phenomena which totalitarianism is certain sooner or later to produce.
