The creation of a new Progressive movement?


This article's author predicts that we are on the cusp of new age of American Progressive activism. One in which we "should aim for three things. The first is a revival of crucial public services, especially education, training, public investment and environmental protection. The second is the end of a climate of impunity that encouraged nearly every Wall Street firm to commit financial fraud. The third is to re-establish the supremacy of people votes over dollar votes in Washington." Do Progressives have history on our side? Are these goals feasible?
