Progressivism as Democratic Totalitarianism

The fact is that all fascism is simply non-Soviet socialism that maintains an appearance of private ownership. It’s also a loaded word devoid of meaning today other than to attack others. All forms of socialism sacrifice individual freedom and liberty for the “collective good.” Many make the excuse America is a “mixed” economy and not totally socialist. But at what point does government taxation, regulation, public-private partnerships, and government contracting-spending-employment make a socialist nation? Socialism by its very nature is totalitarian. And when all of their efforts at “social justice” and other various forms of “justice” start constituting a police state? The Pew poll above illustrates that most of the American people distrust and fear the government and for good reasons. We must look back at the record of those early 20th Century Progressives Hillary so admires.
