What's up y'all, I am currently conducting research in regards to the devastating effect liberal policies have had on western societies post-WW2.

I am seeking anti-liberals who could discuss their views about which liberal policies they believe have aided in the destruction of America and liberals who would like to discuss policies that they support.

I will start off with the Great Society programs (thanks LBJ) that have reduced a once self-reliant, family-oriented society to a nation of dependent, entitled socialists. These policies have stripped many of their humanity and incentivized out of wedlock births and sloth and cultivated an external locus of control within the population.

Your mostly talking about the so called "silent generation" those born before 1946. When the pill came out in the early 60s they loved the new freedom. The age of divorce started with them. Now they are well past their 60s and are enjoying every lung, heart, liver, knee, and hip transplant that is available. I think you came to the right place though lots of them post here and they hate liberals..

Are you also interested in conservative policies that aided in the destruction of America?

Maybe like the regulations that were fought against tooth and nail on collateralized debt obligations, credit default swaps, and other derivatives with regards to their impact on the recession.

Wasn't it liberals who help end exploitation child labor in the US in the early 20th Century. How about safety standards in the workplace for employees ... wasn't that also done by liberals.

Oh well, I guess there are just some folks who hate "libruls" so much they will never recognize those achievements.

Pfft. Read World Net Daily like it's your Bible and you'll have no problem regurgitating the brain-dead talking points of right-wingers. They've been using the same lines for the last 50 years and I'm sure they'll continue using the same lines for the next 50.

When you say 'western societies' in the plural, are you including the many European nations who have embraced liberal policies, or focusing purely on the US?
