"Back" to the Future

I often hear phrases like: “Take back our democracy,” “take back our streets,” take back our media,” and “take back our country.” What I’m wondering is this: Precisely when was it that “we” had control of all this? The “take back” approach gives the false impression that past U.S. leaders were more fair and that we must look backwards for solutions.

Sure, we can learn from the past...but the lessons are usually what NOT to do.
