There have been multiple examples over the years of "progressive" influence which have gradually eroded our nation's founding principles of checks and balances away from a strong representative republic. After all, that has been the Progressive's intent all along.
However, each of those instances - however small and seemingly insignificant - over time have gradually built up to the point today where the nation's very existence is threatened in its once seemingly indestructible form of protecting liberties and freedoms.
To anyone who claims otherwise, in my opinion, is simply either ignorant of the facts as they are today, or have been convinced in some way or another, that some other form of governance - such as Venezuela - is better.
The state of Connecticut is the latest example of what I refer to here. This type of action by states is counter to efforts by conservatives, who understand the consequences of such a trend, to exercise our Constitution's Article V provision to call for a Convention of States which would propose amendments to strengthen it.
If this type of movement is not stopped in its tracks, the chances of our nation dissolving into something akin to Venezuela in the future are good. How soon that would occur is anyone's guess. I just hope it's not while I'm still here, or things are going to get much, much worse than they already are!
