Allen West: Progressive, Socialist Left No Longer Believes in Power of Labor

Greetings everyone, I pray y’all had a wonderful and relaxing Labor Day weekend. This weekend represents the “official” end of summer and the “official” beginning of another college football season. But I just had to reflect on what Labor Day was intended to be. It began back in the late 19th Century with the intention of recognizing the American labor movement and the worker. The first state to recognize Labor Day as a holiday was Oregon in 1887. The United States officially recognized Labor Day as a federal holiday in 1894, 30 States had already recognized it as a public holiday. Of course, some may say that Labor Day emanated as a Marxist concept, rooted in the elevation of the proletariat – workers or working-class people, regarded collectively. Going back to ancient Rome, this class of citizens was regarded as the lowest, also termed the plebian class, as commoners.

Once again, Allen West is as right as rain.  Lefties want everyone dependent on government for their very survival.  This is particularly true of the black people they claim they care about.  They still want to keep black people on the plantation and they are hoping to add the other races to the plantation as well. 

My question is, if we all become dependent upon government, who is going to pay for all these benefits?
