A lot of liberal leaning people believe that “progressives” and “progressivism” means “progress”....It could not be further from the truth...
Progressivism actually means “change” or “reform”...It doesn’t say forward...It doesn’t have anything to do with progress which means “moving FORWARD”...
If anything means progress...”moving FORWARD”, it is capitalism...moving forward to stay ahead of competition...which is the lifeblood of America...
I respectfully disagree. Since all civilizations grow, prosper, and eventually decline, "moving forward" only rushes us faster into the decay part of the curve, while conservatism seeks to hang onto, or even stay, in the prosperous period.
