When Left is Right
When most of the world talks of the extreme political Left they are talking about all people in Society being equal everyone having the same wealth and human rights. When they talk about the extreme Right they are talking about the individual actually meaning corporate right to rule society for the benefit of the elite Class. Now in America we certainly have the Right wing part, but since the 1950’s persecution of the Communist and even the Socialist who in our history have been responsible for many of the rights that us common working class people have today there really isn’t any Left wing that is allowed into mainstream politics in America since the 1950’s.
Some think that the Liberals are our Left wing, but look at who are our leading “Liberals” Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, Al Gore, Hillary Clinton all members of the elite class. How can they relate to the common old working class? They are certainly not Left wing they are just to the right of center. This does not mean that they are not doing some good, yes! Ted Kennedy and Hillary Clinton you have them to thank anytime you see a Doctor or go Hospital for your rights. Al Gore is doing a lot to bring Global Warming out into the open and pressure Congress and the President to do something about it. I am not sure what John Kerry has done, except give George W Bush a second term. This is not good against evil, but of different contradictory interests Corporate Leaders want to maximize their profits while the common old working person wants a good living for them and their families. When it come to spending money to benefit other people a lot of people turn conservative and when it comes to spending money to benefit them and their families they turn Liberal.
The real Left wing has an up hill battle to fight in America, the Socialist have to reeducate the American People as to what Socialism is all about. Then there is our system of Government that prevents third parties from having a real shot at power.
