FOCUS: Writer finds it becomes difficult to think like a centrist

By Michael Wood | Tim Sullivan’s letter in GwinnettForum (2/12/16) illustrates why it’s easy to be an extreme ideologue and it’s hard to be a centrist. He said “…most Americans do not want to become Europe, we do not want to continue the fall into a welfare state where the government provides our every need.” (Emphasis added.) He was directing his comments about Bernie Sanders’ proposals regarding a higher minimum wage, the government reducing people’s student debt, and a single-payer medical care regime, perhaps among other government welfare programs.
