Just a thought...Sander's being the extreme, but overall the democrats who want control over our lives and make us dependent on the government for everything are totalitarian by both definition and necessity!
Both major parties want control, not just the Dems. The NC law is just another red flag, not particularly in the bathroom issue, but in the way the state limited local governing bodies to make local decisions and opened up discrimination by allowing people to be fired for being old or gay. What the Republicans are doing is giving extraordinary freedoms to Big Biz so Big Biz can line their pocketbooks in exchange for power. Then they use the media to whine when Big Biz decides to go cultural (Target).
In a democracy, the cultural majority should determine the laws being made. Localities should have a voice if not the choice in matters that aren't interwoven with other states' rights. The government was set up for cultural rule so if the culture deteriorates, that is how the government should be set up. We aren't set up to have a dictator or dictatorial party rule, benevolent or evil. So we have means by which we can protest. I'm OK with people boycotting Target if it violates their principles. Just don't expect everyone else's to conform.
Both sides are dictatorial in intent.
