right-wing ideology. I have a feeling this is just a pre-cursor to what will happen if Trump wins the next election. Why so many people want someone to tell them what they can and cannot do amazes me.

Here in Texas this is the ideology and the result is that even for issues that have 70+% of public support it doesn't matter if State leadership does not agree. No referendums allowed, no recourse, and a State government that can do anything they want. All based on who controls the legislature and AG's office.

We are definately going backwards in America and like Climate Change faster than anticipated.
