Progressive thought by the current leader of the pack:ThomasFremont said:Southerndawg said:

I am sure you and I would find plenty of areas of agreement in criticizing the progressive left and overreach by the federal government, but I would argue that there's nothing necessary incompatible between strong central government and classical western liberal principles. How many times in the history of the Republic did the federal government have to defend life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness from tyrannies of the majority at the state and local level? Hell, our own Constitution came about as a result of to weak of a centralized government.Southerndawg said:
That's one issue, I totally agree. However, progressivism is not rooted in classical western liberalism, and it's fair to say that progressive attitudes towards strong centralized government are akin to those Islam harbors towards strong theocracies. Both believe the masses need "help" in making decisions on their own and share a belief in control of the masses by a few in power. I agree with you, this is not why they're sympathetic to one another, but it's true nonetheless.YellowSnow said:

" ......."Obama in his interview disparages the Constitution as merely "a charter of negative liberties. It says what the states can't do to you. Says what the federal government can't do to you but doesn't say what the federal government or state government must do on your behalf." .....................
But Obama, like many leftists before him, is unhappy with the constraints of our Constitution. He wants to turn voluntary responsibilities and moral obligations that citizens choose to undertake into so-called affirmative rights. That idea is sugarcoated as "what the government must do on your behalf." But that sort of thinking—that government should do it—is precisely what saps volunteerism and helps explain why both the Obamas' and the Bidens' charitable contributions are so pitiful.

The contemporary common political conception of progressivism in the culture of the Western world emerged from the vast social changes brought about by industrialization in the Western world in the late 19th century, particularly out of the view that progress was being stifled by vast economic inequality between the rich and the poor; minimally regulated laissez-faire capitalism with monopolistic corporations; and intense and often violent conflict between workers and capitalists, thus claiming that measures were needed to address these problems.salemcoog said:

Classically liberal is almost as meaningless today as the term "doog", in that the "liberal" part has been co-opted. I think you're better off with "libertarian" ... at least we know what that's supposed to mean.
On the other side of the isle, my Republican heroes have committed the hubris of encouraging big government for all kinds of their own reasons. Certainly they don't advocate expansion of the welfare state, unless, like me, you count the military, because it does, after all, provide an employment outlet for our worst and dumbest. But they do seem to not mind the guvment regulating where you can put your cock, whether you can employ a vacuum cleaner to take care of a little mistake, and whether schools should have to teach mysticism as a core subject along side evolution, among other things. Apparently, the government should be regulating all manner of behavior, as it turns out. I don't know what makes them conservative any more, and I'm not sure I can even articulate what that term means. -

I don't think there is a coherent "hate" of capitalism any more than there is a collective fear of communism, the latter of which died with my generation, the children of the cold war era, becoming too old to give a shit anymore.
