To one degree or another, Democrats have always embraced socialism. From FDR’s 100% tax plan to the ObamaCare fiasco, Dems are perpetually searching for new ways to “spread the wealth around.” Looking back over the last hundred years, JFK’s cuts now stick out like a sore thumb – a brief, bizarro-world detour away from their discomfort with capitalism and their never-ending class warfare campaign to soak the rich.
These days, it’s more obvious than ever. The pretenses have been dropped and the socialists stand proudly front-and-center. They’re cheered as the face and future of the Democratic Party, and the base will destroy anyone who dares question the direction they’re moving. No dissent will be tolerated.
