Progress Unmasked

In a recent letter, the Ohio Farmer notes an irony that cannot be repeated enough:

There is a strange irony in the name "progressive," for the progressives' "living constitution," in replacing enumerated powers and the sovereignty of the people with the unlimited sovereignty of government, resembles the British constitution we rejected over two centuries ago. The next historic act in America’s constitutional drama is to recover the Founders' Constitution. 

The actual Progressive project realized consists in shifting the car in reverse and slamming on the gas pedal.
