>> But that _is_ "conservatism" in the truest sense of the word -- go back to the "good old days." Undo progress. Bring back the robber barons.

Doesn't that make them "liberal", wanting to "Change" back? <gg>

Study the voter fraud that happened before the 1930's. That was the real problem: "Boss-ism". This was the Evolution of the Mafia. We had rulers in every city like "Boss" Tom Pendergast of Kansas City. How did they keep their power? By providing the welfare that no one else provided. They used their gambling profits to play robin hood.

A fascinating story of American political evolution. A story every right-winger should be required to study.
