:::In our society, every bit of criticism or praise is focused on our current leaders (kind of like those Communists), but their promises are about things that will come to fruition ''someday''. If anything, it seems liberals would fit the song's ideas better than conservatives: conservatives enact policies that make sense ''now'', while liberals try to preempt nonexistent threats like global warming with policies that aren't necessary immediately, but supposedly are necessary to "ensure our future," or some made up excuse like that.

:::Here are the lyrics from the song: [[http://www.lyricsfreak.com/f/fleetwood+mac/dont+stop_20054276.html)]]. It seems to be about an incident in a relationship.

:::: Your link is broken.  Perhaps the parenthesis is out of place?  In response to your comments, communist China looks very much to the past, and places great emphasis on it.

:::: I don't see how all ideologies could possibly emphasize the future versus the past in exactly the same way.  To take just one conservative insight, the [[Laffer Curve]], it points out how future behavior changes to increase government revenue when taxes are cuts.  Many liberals are unable to grasp this given their mindset that places less emphasis on future behavior.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 23:01, 2 August 2010 (EDT)
