Party of Paternalism

The Democrats have become the party that believes the people are too stupid to take care of themselves. I think the beginning of this went as far back as Woodrow Wilson and was reinforced by FDR. President Johnson advanced interference in our lives still further with his "Guns and Butter" advance toward socialism. Obama tried to reach still farther into controlling us with his Obama Care attempt at national health care. Republican politicians still think Americans are mostly able to take care of ourselves.
