Very true. Nixon was even bold enough to push for a form of universal basic income. It's blasphemous to even discuss such things today.
And it's funny, because some people are all for progressivism and liberalism as long as it doesn't hit their checkbooks, and then when it comes to pushing for things that will require money, you either get radio silence with a "Deer in headlights" looks or the "Rainbows and Unicorns!" spiel.
For example, in the midst of all of the Trump hatred, I have yet to hear a well-known celebrity criticize Trump's tax reform plan.
