They&#8217;re fine with Soros&#8217;s and Steyer&#8217;s money.  Knowing that, I&#8217;m reflexively hostile to the campaign finance reform that Leftists demand is a predicate to freeing American politics from &#8220;big money.&#8221;  George Will goes into greater depth than that, explaining that campaign finance reform inherently restricts free speech and serves only to prop up incumbent politicians&#8217; hold on office:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/at82C8E8HUE\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flashreport.org\/blog\/2015\/11\/17\/california-government-coming-after-you-no-matter-where-you-are\/\" target=\"_blank\">California Government Coming After You No Matter Where You Are <\/a><br \/>\nCalifornians running their own businesses are accustomed to having an invasive government. They are also used to the government taking the side of their employees and being considered guilty until proven innocent on any claim asserted against them. But when your company is outside of California, you certainly do not expect these things to happen to you. That is apparently no longer true.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/laurencejarvikonline.blogspot.com\/2015\/11\/the-revolt-of-elites.html\" target=\"_blank\">The Revolt of the Elites<\/a><br \/>\nToday&#8217;s battle between civilization and barbarism seems to have turned Ortega&#8217;s analysis on its head.

They&#8217;re sad. They weren\u2019t raised for a life of solitude. After graduating from college, many are discovering that they miss life in a college dormitory, where social interactions with one another were organized and their actions and words were supervised. There they were surrounded by peers and cared for remotely by helicopter parents who enforced tolerance and inclusion.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.redstate.com\/2015\/11\/18\/wont-obama-follow-law-use-religious-test-refugees\/\" target=\"_blank\">Why Won&#8217;t Obama Follow the Law And Use A Religious Test For Refugees?<\/a><br \/>\nThe Syrian refugee crisis has raised a very real concern about the nature of the refugees that will be admitted under Obama\u2019s resettlement plan. While America has historically been open to refugees, it has also drawn the line at admitting people who are inimical with our institutions. For instance, we have banned anarchists and communists from coming to the United States at various times in our past. <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bloombergview.com\/articles\/2015-11-18\/who-s-to-blame-for-pc-culture\" target=\"_blank\">Who&#8217;s to Blame for PC Culture<\/a><br \/>\nIs political correctness on campus a real problem? Tellingly, it is less often defended than it is minimized. In the 1990s, it was sometimes dismissed as a conservative &#8220;myth.&#8221; In recent months &#8212; with students demanding resignations, apologies and various other concessions from their administrators over perceived slights &#8212; liberals have bent over backward to insist that PC culture isn&#8217;t &#8220;the real issue.&#8221; When the journalist Jonathan Chait wrote an essay criticizing progressives who want to silence those who disagree with them, he was called &#8220;a sad white man&#8221; and told that political correctness doesn&#8217;t exist.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nationalreview.com\/article\/427293\/missouri-campus-riot-communist?utm_source=jolt&#038;utm_medium=email&#038;utm_campaign=Jolt11192015&#038;utm_term=Jolt\" target=\"_blank\">The Pink Guards on Campus<\/a><br \/>\nThe idiot children running amok on our college campuses right now aren&#8217;t exactly the Red Guards \u2014 they&#8217;re far too weak and wishy-washy for that.
