@nityanandapillai8524 US law that has existed for at least 100 years.
Let's be clear based on the FACTS of HISTORY:
1. Hitler came to power when he explained to the German aristocracy and industrialists that the alternative to him was the COMMUNISTS.
2. Before he went after the Jews, Hitler targeted for extermination --
A. Communists -- which are far-LEFT politically.
B. Socialists -- which are Left of Liberal but to the Right of Communists.
Because, the name of his political party notwithstanding, Hitler was not a socialist. He was a FASCIST, which is far-RIGHT.
3. Trade unionists/union organizers. Because organized wealth and dictators want the masses to be DISORGANIZED.
4. Hitler ALSO -- OBVIOUSLY -- hated LIBERALS, who are to the Right of Socialists. Liberals are the MODERATE CENTER.
The Western democracies were founded on the ENLIGHTENMENT -- "woke" -- philosophers; LIBERALISM. The United States, specifically, was established during a time when all the gov'ts were "divine right monarchies and dictatorship. But it was established as a SELF-GOVERNED DEMOCRACY, in which "We the people" -- the ELECTORATE, through ELECTED representatives -- is the gov't.
By ANY measure that is PROGRESSIVE.
And the US Constitution also incorporates the means to AMEND the Constitution in order to accommodate changes in political and legal reality -- which is also PROGRESSIVE.
What that means is that the purpose of the US gov't is to serve -- meet the needs of -- "We the people," as determined by "We the people" through elected representation. "We the people" pays its own way for the entirety of that through TAXATION.
