4 Ways Democrats Want to Ruin Your Life

President Ronald Reagan once said, “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.”
Perhaps now, more than at any other time recently, these words must be heeded. The foundation of American values and freedom is under assault. The attack is not from a foreign power, but from within. The Democrats, their media allies, and those who still wear the name “Never Trump” are attempting to fulfill President Barack Obama’s dream and transform America. They seek to redefine what it means to be an American and recalibrate the fundamentals of the American dream.
It is readily seen in four different spheres.
First, they want to take what’s yours and give it away. Steve Levy writing for Fox News’s blog notes, “U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., a self-described democratic socialist, claims that a 70 percent tax rate on multimillionaires will give us the funds needed to expand Medicare to every resident and supply free college.” He also notes that Sens. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), who despise those who succeed in business, believe that soaking the rich is social justice. It’s a vehicle to eradicate income inequality.
They continue to hold these positions despite the evidence that “overtaxing high earners backfires and actually hurts the working class and middle class.”
Jack Torry, in the Dayton Daily News, wrote succinctly, “New York Mayor Bill [d]e Blasio, who has not ruled out running for president, said last month on CNN ‘there’s plenty of money in this country’ for health coverage for everyone, but the money is ‘just in the wrong hands.'”
It’s clear that part of the radical transformation plan of the Democrats, aided by a complicit media, is to give your money to other people. An FAQ on the Green New Deal championed by Representative Ocasio-Cortez, now deleted, even advocated for giving “economic security even to those ‘unwilling’ to work.”
Second, they want to eliminate any connection our nation has to Judeo-Christian values. Brian Flood, for Fox News, reported February 9, 2019, “CBS sitcom The Big Bang Theory snuck another anti-Trump message into the popular show’s credits on Thursday night, taking aim at press secretary Sarah Sanders’ appearance and Christian faith. ‘God told me he hasn’t spoken to Sarah Sanders since she was fourteen years old and praying for her skin to clear up. I have no reason to doubt Him,’ an on-screen message during the show’s closing credits said.”
This is the unfortunate norm for Ms. Sanders. Her faith has been consistently mocked. Amber Athey, in The Daily Caller, on September 18, 2018, reported, “The New Yorker profiled White House press secretary Sarah Sanders on Monday, and people are not happy with how the publication handled Sanders’ Christian faith.”
