THE PROGRESSIVE MIND has never moved beyond the 'terrible twos'.

Demanding that government step in and give us "free stuff" is clinging to a childish vision of life. It is always a guaranteed recipe for waste, high costs, rationing, and low quality. So yes, indeed, Bernie and Elizabeth and Mayor Pete, I say, grow up; get a job; run a donut shop; pay some light bills and employee salaries and some depreciation and service contracts before you leap on that stage and spout your foolish, utterly childish notions about all this free stuff you kind, compassionate woke folks of government are going to give us. It's just a Disney fantasy, and most American adults still have the sense to change the channel. They changed that channel in 2016 and hopefully will do it again in 2020.

The only difference is that actual two-year-olds aren't as destructive.
