What MAGA really stands for

We recently heard the cry “MAGA”, make America great again. But what
was the main reason for our past greatness? Two things; a strong labor
movement that ensured economic gains were actually distributed to
working people and second a government (funded by progressive taxes)
that had the will to assist poor and rural folks with a strong social
safety net and laws requiring utilities and corporations to serve the
interests of the people, not just the wealthy.

Federal programs like FDR’s rural electrification act (REA) gave
farmers entree to the labor-saving devices of the twentieth century,
despite utilities resisting based on pure profit projections.

That is what really made America great, not just relying on “free”
markets or demonizing powerless minorities.
