15. The March of history is in our favor
Things are becoming more and more progressive, 150 years ago there was still slavery. Just 40 years ago racism was legally enshrined.Today it is not socially acceptable to be racist. Until the 60' poor people just starved. The march of history is toward more popular involvement, more economic security. All the things the right wing hates. I agree with this post. It may not happen in our lifetime but it WILL happen. History may have many pendulum swings but the overall trend is toward more progressive societies.
