What everyone here needs to begin to understand is that is isn't between Conservatives and Democrats. The fight is between two factions of the Administrative State.
One side believes we the people are incapable of thinking for ourselves and therefore they need to take over every aspect of our lives and make our decisions for us because they know better. No need for us to even vote which is why they fix it.
The other side believes if we are informed we can still make decision for ourselves and should be allowed to vote on these decisions although I believe this side has shrunk considerably in the last 20 years. Also they still believe they should have the power to overrule and in the end decide if the people go against their goals.
Everyone should read this book. It is about how the progressives took over at the end of the 19th Century and installed the 4th branch of government. The Administrative state.
