Previous Message Is that I'd add that liberals tend to believe that the government can/should solve all problems, where as in my opinion I think their reach/impact is pretty limited. Take CPS here in Chicago. The money spent per student has gone from $17,000 tens years ago to over $30,000 today and there has been little to no improvement in test scores or results. More and more data is coming out on the impacts of being raised by two parents vs single parent (almost always a mom). Liberals see that problem and advocate for throwing more cash at it. Obama tried to make this a pillar/issue for him, calling out African American men/dads to step up. He used his bully pulpit on that for what felt like a few months and then abandoned it. I don't know why he did but I have my theories.
