What Is the Left's Endgame?

By Scott Johnston on His blog "The Naked Dollar"

There's a thought experiment I like to play with liberal friends, which I call King for a Day. The idea is, you are the king, you control everything. Now go ahead: what does your America look like? 

What new laws will you make (or abolish)? 

What will tax rates look like? 

Will we bother with a Constitution or a Supreme Court?

Would you abolish "hate speech?" The Electoral College?

Please, be specific.

It's a pleasing yet confounding game for leftists. Pleasing because they get to play out their progressive fantasies; confounding, because they discover they don't know where to stop. You see, that's the thing: progressivism has no philosophical limits. It always wants more. More government, higher taxes, more regulations...more.

When an objective is achieved, the the goalposts are immediately moved, because they always need a cause, beliefs to cherish, a reason to march in the streets.
