Is US moving socialist?
No. If anything, the United States has been moving right-ward over the last two decades, with a singular exception for gay rights. Liberals today are fighting for the creation of laws based on what Conservatives of the 1980s were espousing. Ideas of Liberals in the 1960s would seem out place today.
Will America survive liberals today?
Yes.
Would a push to reduce corporate taxes most likely be a liberal or conservative cause?
In today's environment both Liberals and Conservatives in Congress are looking to lower corporate tax rates. Both Liberals and Conservatives favor a simplified tax code that removes "special breaks" and "loopholes" that were put in the tax code passed by Congress over the years. That said, corporate taxes are part of the tax code and should be "fair." On the question of whether fairness includes higher overall taxes or lower overall taxes in respect to a new code Conservatives are more likely to be in favor of lower taxes and Liberals more likely to be in favor of higher taxes. For example, a corporate tax rate of 30% prior to closing loopholes and special breaks might be changed to 10% from the Conservative point of view and might be changed to 20% from the Liberal point of view. Both choices are lower than the original 30% but the Liberals want to pay for government and the Conservatives of today have been co-opted by the starve government folks who would take taxes below what was necessary to keep government providing services.

Was John Hancock a federalist?
All the founding fathers were actually looking for changes and were the facto liberals. All the founding fathers wanted a clear separation between state and church, making them liberals. So you could assume they were Democrats ... However, the main argument for separation was that they were upset to pay taxes to the Great Britain, who was looking to tax the colonies. This alone, the fact that they didn't want to pay any taxes, makes them Republicans. But over the years, even the Republicans and the Democrats values changed. Today's Democrats are the old Republicans, and vice versa. The best way to honor your founding fathers is to vote and encourage the separation of the church and the state, encourage liberal values while respecting the conservatives who protect your gains, in a small government environment.
