> - extremes make extremes and neither is good for the US Which would be more salient if there were, in fact, an extreme left in the US. Think about this for just a minute: What would extremes on both sides look like? On the left, it would likely look like a platform of jailing or murdering all billionaires, confiscating the wealth of everyone above, say, $10M and redistributing it to the populace, nationalizing all major businesses, etc. On the right, it would likely look like a platform of jailing, deporting, or murdering all non-white people, enforcing a specific view of Christianity on everyone, and redistributing wealth from the poor to the wealthy. One of these sounds a hell of a lot like the platform of one of our major parties, and it sure as hell isn't the Democratic Party.
