The Democrats and their Marxist wing are marching us toward the waterfall of socialism at an ever-increasing rate. Knowing they have a small window to move the ball, they are quadrupling down on their effort to turn our country from a capitalist democracy into a socialistic one-party state. They won’t get there with this regime, but the giant leaps they have heaped on us indicates they have our way of life on the run and with plenty of support. They have craftily indoctrinated whole generations of the ills of the US and the greatness of socialism. They captured our youth and are reaping the benefit of the millions who actually believe there is free money. Real freedom to so many means being given “free” (fill in the blank) so you don’t have to deal with a mundane thing like work to get food, housing, health care or transportation.
Regardless of how you look at taxing policy, the end result is resources are taken out of the productive part of the economy and put into the non-productive part. Private enterprise is by far the more efficient user of those resources and many believe, government is the waster of them. Of course, no Marxist would ever accept the fact that a committed state couldn’t’ make the world a better place “if you would only give it all to us”. Ignoring history, or in the case of totalitarian governments rewriting it, makes all the bluster seem reasonable to a populace that has been fed a very biased story. Will those of us who have a better sense of the ills of a large state apparatus prevail? It is not a done deal.
