The place where progressive ideals die

3. Or as John McCain has said for the last 21 years, "the system is broken."

And this is not meant to imply I have anything but disgust for McCain, just remembering those who've helped bring about the corporate-corrupted government know what they've done - they broke it and aren't about to fix it!

4. Progressive ideals die when progressives don't organize grassroots movements to fight back

The gains of the Progressive Era were not obtained by people complaining to the folk at the top about the Robber Barons of the Gilded Age: the gains of the Progressive Era were obtained by people who were angered enough, by the abuses of the Gilded Age, to fight back
