Conservatives, and intelligent folks in general, operate via the former phrase.
Liberals and Democrats, the latter.
1.But don’t take my word for it….here, from the smartest Democrat in recent memory, Daniel Patrick Moynihan:
"Somehow liberals have been unable to acquire from birth what conservatives seem to be endowed with at birth: namely, a healthy skepticism of the powers of government to do good."
Daniel Patrick Moynihan
No matter the evidence or experience, Liberals just nod and accept.
2.Not as either brave nor persistent as we on the Right, the Lefts drones were beaten into submission by government school. Even with abundant evidenced that they were being lied to, they simply nodded their acquiescence, and devolved into the dolts, parroting the propaganda here, on the board.
3. Liberalism is all about turning over your ability to think to bureaucrats, experts, party bosses.
" ... there’s a tendency among bureaucrats, politicians, academics, and other members of the New Class to convince the people to hand over the major decisions of their lives to the “experts.” These experts aren’t all in the government, but they all collude with government to convince people that the experts have all the answers and that the people need to hand the reins over to them. They will tell us what to eat, what to drive, what to think.
It’s an approach that puts politics before economics. Because it is an attempt to politicize peoples’ lives.”
Nazis: Still Socialists, by Jonah Goldberg, National Review
4. Here is a glaring example of the above, one which has poisoned race relations, and doomed an emerging black middle class to poverty and incarceration on Uncle Sam’s plantation, i.e., the welfare system:
LBJ bought the black vote for the Democrats with a system that encouraged dependency, paying black women as long as they remained single and pregnant. It destroyed the nuclear family
1966 LBJ expanded the Aid to Families with Dependent Children program. Under FDR, AFDC had been limited to widows, those who had lost their husbands and now lacked a breadwinner at home to help support the children.
Then Democrats began to loosen and expand the rules of AFDC eligibility, eventually getting to the point where any woman living alone with children could take advantage of this program. In doing so, they not only bought a large number of new votes, they also incentivized out of wedlock births single motherhood.
But....they had their captive voters.
As Charles Murray described in “Losing Ground,” the Great Society incentivized the same negative behaviors that cause poverty in the first place.
Millions of women discovered that they could be better off financially by not marrying.
“Liberal experts” defended the system, denying the effects that were evident to all……and the Liberal dunces simply nodded and muttered ‘duh…yeah…yup!’
They simply accept what their masters tell them.
Proof ….coming right up.
