Other way around. The Overton window has shifted so far to the Conservative side that Democrats in the US are Center-Right anywhere else in the developed world. Our Far Right are basically political neandertals. US Conservatives have more in common with fascist dictatorships.

>I fall right where the American Founding Father's stood. Just enough government to keep things like interstate trade and travel running smoothly, and that's about it. Most everything else is governed by the individual States and localities, and the people themselves. Yeah except that wasn't how the Founders envisioned it. *Some* of the founders felt that way, they were in the minority. Federal Supremacy v State Supremacy was an issue from literally day one. >Basically, how we governed ourselves for the first 120 or so years. Uhh.. whut? We barely made it 70 years before Federal Supremacy was clearly established by the Civil War. It would help your position if you had even the slightest clue what the fuck you were talking about. >not the ability of Congress to create a nanny welfare state Governing for the common good was literally one of the very few things that all the Founders *actually agreed on.* Including such nanny-state things as mandatory quarantines on pain of death, mandatory innoculation (precursor to vaccination), and forcible taxation via violence/death (within 4 years of the founding). You have such a patently ahistorical view that i can only assume you're taking the piss or just massively fucking retarded. Trying to "conserve" being the only developed nation that enshrines "fuck you, i got mine" and lets its citizen die in the street of preventable disease while capitalism literally ruins their fellow citizens makes you a fucking steaming pile of un-American shit.

"We do not want the immoral to participate here". Funny, given how immoral the mods and posts in general are.
