Myth 1: Traditionally, Americans have opted for small government, focusing the public sector only on absolute necessities, and privatizing most societal functions.
Myth 2: The subject known as “civics” has been removed from our high schools in order to make young people unaware of the proper (small) role of government.
Truth: Shown at left is a page taken from a civics textbook just after the close of the Second World War. Notice how it jibes with the major theme of both parties’ platforms of that time, through the Eisenhower administration, right up until Reagan came along in 1980 and turned all this on its head.
I suppose there are people who believe that the radical left is on a path to make Christianity illegal, and perhaps to install Islam as the official religion of the United States. This is remarkable for two reasons:
a) Every schoolchild in America learns about the First Amendment’s guarantee of freedom of religion at a very young age, and
b) This country made it successfully though 250 years with no one being ignorant enough to bring up this ridiculous concern.
One would hope that this figure of near 60% would indirectly translate into Trump’s ouster before he can take full control of the U.S. government.
We vote Trump’s stooges out of office in November and replace them people of honor. Trump is impeached, convicted and removed. From there, justice takes its course.
