- HELLO! Remember the coup? Remember Gorbachev getting kidnapped? Remember
- the breakup of the Soviet Union? It happened because a RIGHT-wing faction
- of the government, that is, the old guard of Brezhnev/Lenin ideology,
- opposed Gorbachev's progressivism and willingness to allow state's rights.
- Calling Soviet government fascist left-wingers is way too convenient.

- Liberals derive their support from those who realize that the Horatio Alger
- "bootstrap" myth has little if any basis in reality. Poor people are not
- lazy, they are disadvantaged. Minorities are not lazy, they are disadvantaged.
- The power base is the property of rich, white, conservative corporations and
- politicians. Those who are not in power are kept there, victimized by a
- vicious Catch-22 (won't hire you because you're not qualified, you're not
- qualified because we won't hire you). The disadvantaged are greater in number
- than ever before: today the top 4 percent of the country earn as much as the
- bottom 50 percent of the country. Liberalism is designed, among other things,
- to give power to those who are denied access to power, so that they are able
- to make their own mark on their own.
