A few days ago I posted that the Teamsters are polling their members to see who they should support for president. This is the result of that poll.

I was a member of a union. At least half of the membership were conservative in their leanings, but the union leadership were all liberal. Why was that? I will tell you from experience it was from the conservatives being so indignant over the "leadership" of the left, and so God-damned lazy, that they rolled over and let it happen, being content to carp about it---but not being willing to do anything about it.
We have seen the same thing happening in all of our social institutions: local governments, school systems, churches. The leftists are active and the conservatives are passive carpers. The schools are a sore point. Nothing is a greater target locally for conservatives than the schools. To whom I would ask, "Where the hell were you for the past 30-40 years?." Too fucking much complacency and consequent negligence. You ignore your garden for a large part of a century and you no longer have a garden, but an invasive jungle.
One of the reasons for this are conservatives don't believe government nor any organized group has the right to tell others how to live. No matter the size or scale, fundamentally that's what these groups do. Decides how it will be for everyone else.
Just as pedos flock to children. The liberal will flock to other peoples money, and levers of control.
But you are right that we must wake up to the fact, to protect ourselves, we must get involved. We got to get our hands dirty.
Well, there is the right to lay down the law against theft, assault, murder, and trespass. The border between law and freedom is delicate. The free market hinders no one's freedom, nor do contracts. There is little freedom if there is no obligation to fulfill bargains.
But getting our hands dirty cleans the soul.
