American Socialism
July 31, 2007
There’s no two ways about it. Socialism is on the rise here in America. We see it’s signs everyday with our politicians and the rising popularity of certain ideas and plans. The government wanting to regulate what kind of politics must be heard on the airwaves with the Fairness Doctrine, discriminatory overtaxing of the rich, universal healthcare and politicians wanting to take the profits from free market businesses and give them to the government.
The overtaxing of the rich and taking of profits seem to be the most popular in this country. And I’m not sure why. What have they done to be targeted and discriminated against like that? We’re told, from the time we’re little kids, to work hard, make something of ourselves and become a success. But then, when we do, they want to punish us for it. Can someone please explain that to me. “What you make isn’t your’s. It belongs to everyone”. That’s not America. That’s Cuba. That’s Venezuela. America is supposed to be a country where we succeed or fail on our own merits. Not a country where the government takes what we make and distributes it amongst the masses. A country where we’re not penalized for making it. At least that’s what I always thought. If we’re not careful, we could wake up one cold November morning next year and find that we have a quasi-Socialist headed to the White House.

The government knows whats best for you. If you are going to be in the system, you can’t choose not to go to the doctor for 20 years. You have to go in and be checked and make sure that you are OK.
