>Age adjusted mortality rates have declined 60% over the past 75 years courtesy of those "assholes" in health care, pharmaceuticals and Wall Street who financed them. Without regulations on insurance and socialized health care almost no one would receive the supposed benevolence of those assholes in health care. >College enrollment has increased by more than 1000% and graduation rates have increased by 10% thanks to those "assholes" who run colleges and those "jerks" who underwrite college loans. Colleges stand to profit from enrollment rates, college loans are a debt factory, college costs have skyrocketed while relative incomes have shrunk dramatically. Those assholes and jerks have laughed their way to the bank with winfall profits from this "everyone needs to go to college" propaganda. >Those "assholes" in the environmental industry and their "criminal" counterparts in government have cut by about 2/3 air pollution in the US since 1900, while the population has exploded. Not sure what your point about this is considering that the EPA is a liberal construct in the first place. In libertarian society there would be no EPA. >Progressives have an important role to play in demonizing business, finance and government. It gets the ball rolling for reform that sometimes creates new businesses. Thank you progressives. I can just feel the aggression oozing off of your comment here. Progressives also have an important role to play in civil rights, social systems that everyone relies on, and supporting and funding an infrastructure that allows equal footing for the poor and the rich. But I see you're sticking to the "big gubment stay out of my life" narrative and I can tell that you would probably benefit from that being the case. >They don't know when to stop and the hysteria/drama engine chugs along causing government to over-reach with feel good legislation and regulation & boondoggles that rob the treasury and business of funds needed to train, hire and maintain a vibrant work force... of good paying jobs... not retail and fast food gigs. You know who robs the treasury of more funds than social programs? Businesses that don't pay taxes. Do you know who robs businesses of money? No one because when you go into business and fail that's no one's fault but your own. What's a good paying job without socialism anyway?
