In the 180 years prior to the signing of the constitution our founding fathers gave us the answers to everything we need to solve our problems, its called the damn constitution it is the anchor that is supposed to keep Us from going to far left or to far right. Not only that you are all looking at the political spectrum wrong. It is not Socialism-------- Fascism.

Total government ---------- No government

Socialism, Fascism, communism, and Monarchies are all total government what our founding fathers called Rulers law, The American government is Peoples law and our constitution anchors us between total government and no government!

The simple fact is that both parties are moving two far left to total government, which will eventually like it always does swing back the other way when people get fed up, and then we have anarchy from there it will swing back to total government and we will get stuck in the same damn cycle that the rest of the world is in!

Why is our country so great, when the first settlers came to America they where using the same technology to Cultivate the land, transport them goods and their selves. we had made little advancement in 5000 years. in just 200 years of freedom we went from riding horse drawn buggies to riding rocket ships to the moon! its what is called the 5000 year leap!

Because in America the people where able to enjoy the fruits of their labor we advanced as a species more in 200 years then we ever had in the previous 5000 years!

That is an amusing take on it especially when you consider that regardless of what they call themselves all the authoritarian regimes that I know of are right wing establishments... not left.
