Why do so many Democrats continue pushing policies that move America toward socialism or even communism? Did they forget the lessons of history and social studies? These systems have repeatedly failed when implemented on a large scale. I’m increasingly frustrated with the Democratic Party because I believe American citizens should come first. Government should prioritize the health, safety, financial stability, and housing needs of Americans before expanding benefits and services to people who are here illegally. America deserves leadership that puts its own citizens first.
