Fiscally Sound and Culturally Affirmative Progressivism

          Progressive and liberal insurgencies have served us well as a country by promoting independence, universal suffrage, emancipation, integration, free speech, civil rights, industrialization, public education, environmentalism, and innovation etc. They are not incompatible with individual liberty, nor fiscal responsibility.

          For every progressive initiative, there is a fiscally sound and culturally affirmative approach to advancing its goals.

          Never lose sight of the fact that if we desire to progress as a society, by consistently improving our quality of life in all respects, we must be careful not to create an elusive ideal that impoverishes both the spirit and the pocket.
