Steps to Socialism
We are taking all of the steps to Socialism, all of the steps to Communism, that Karl Marx said any nation would if it wants to implement his type of “workers’ Utopia”. What’s disturbing is that we have been taking all of the steps to Socialism since the mid-1930s, and progressivism in the Democrat party of the United States has been responsible for this. What’s even more deeply disturbing is that we now have radical Socialists for a President and a dual-house Congressional majority—while the idiot “Republicans” do precisely what they did in the 1930s, which was and is a mixture of the “whatever” attitude and cowering in fear.
Our utterly incompetent and not-very-bright President and his crony Congress are driving us as fast as they possibly can into a morally bankrupt state of slavery. They are doing what all Statists (as the great Mark Levin refers to “mad Libs”) who have power do: they are inculcating a state of fear in order to dupe millions of Americans into believing their lies. They are so effective at this Newspeak-style duplicity that many traitorous Republicans such as Colin Powell and John McCain have said that Americans don’t want to hear that the Democrats are Socialists.
How are the steps to Socialism immoral steps downward into perverse immorality? How do Socialists (Democrats) seek to force us to live as depraved looters of each other? How do they seek to make us all equal in slavery? (Except for those in the government—because, you know, all pigs are equal; but some are more equal than others.). They are leading us along the steps to Socialism by making use of Karl Marx’ 10 Planks of Communism.
1) Abolition of property in land and application of all rents of land to public purposes. This is essentially what zoning has been perversely turned into as the mad Libs implement regulation after regulation fully intended to take away your private property rights. Public schools (read: government-run schools) embody the very same plank. And in fact, given all of the rules and regulations regarding "land management" and environmental standards that Obama and the Congressional idiots want to make even more draconian than they are now, how do we today control our lands? Obama wants to raise your taxes--that will, you can be sure, include property taxes, which will of course be redistribution of wealth money to fulfill the "public purposes" part of this plank. This is also why the Feds are force-feeding the "stimulus" money to states that don't even want it--in blatant violation of the Constitution.
2) A heavy progressive or graduated income tax. Have you ever heard the mad Libs refer to their regressive selves as "progressives"? This is surely what they really mean. Obama is said to be the second coming of Socialist Democrat perennial favorite, Franklin Roosevelt. Under Roosevelt, the wealthiest Americans were at one point paying 90% income tax on some of their money. We know that Obama and this Congress have made it clear that they seek to punish people for being rich or for consuming too much--according to their definitions. This plank is intended to kill aspiration, drive, and dreams--so that the velvet-gloved iron fist of the State Almighty must be looked to.
3) Abolition of all right of inheritance. The Democrats are constantly trying to figure out ways of dramatically raising the estate tax ("death tax"). They even want to tax life insurance proceeds. Under our current Dem leadership, we've no doubt that they will sooner or later succeed.
4) Confiscation of the property of emigrants and rebels. We already have "forfeiture laws". We have Executive order 11490, sections 1205, 2002 granting private lands to the Department of Urban Development. But now, under Obama, Reid, and Pelosi, we have seen this plank come to full fruition: the federal government takeover of General Motors, Chrysler, and AIG--the "rebels" who just don't do what the Feds envision for the Socialist States of America. Goodbye, blue sky; goodbye.
5) Centralization of credit in the hands of the State, by means of a national bank with State capital and an exclusive monopoly. This is an easy one: we have the Federal Reserve, which is not federal and has no reserves. Under Obama's leadership, this anti-Constitutional body is devaluing the dollar and aiding and abetting the Obama Administration of Tim Geithner in crimes against American business--which means, against the American way of life.
6) Centralization of the means of communication and transportation in the hands of the State. We've had this going on and progressively getting worse since the late 1800s. In modern times, we have the main stream media in Obama's pocket (just as he owes them everything). We have the burning desire on the part of Democrats to re-institute the Fairness Doctrine as a means of attempting to destroy free speech on talk radio. And we have the continued rules and regulations regarding the energy, automobile, and airline industries--for the one thing that the mad Libs just cannot have is mobility. If people are mobile, then they just leave the oppression. Or they organize against it.
7) Extension of factories and instruments of production owned by the State, the bringing into cultivation of waste-lands, and the improvement of the soil generally in accordance with a common plan. Besides the insidious subsidizing of "agri-business" that already exists (talk about cultivating waste-lands) along with rampant Crony Capitalism elsewhere fueled by the government, Obama and his Congress want to impose food and farm rules and regulations that are so draconian that they will not only destroy the fastest-growing sector of our economy--small and mid-sized farms--but they will even tell you what you are allowed to grow on your own property; and yes, that means they might at any time they feel like it ban private land owners from growing things like tomatoes or tulips or anything else. Only Big Farmah will be allowed to grow anything, and it will have to comply with the Feds in what it does grow. Goodbye, blue sky; goodbye.
8) Equal liability of all to labor; establishment of industrial armies, especially for agriculture. Hrm...Rohm Emanuel wants mandatory "civil service" for all young adults. The Feds are force-feeding "stimulus money" to states, so that that the Almighty Federal State can "create jobs"--like, oh, maybe digging a five-foot-deep trench from New York to Miami using tea spoons. We mentioned the industrial armies for agriculture in #7.
9) Combination of agriculture with manufacturing industries; gradual abolition of the distinction between town and country, by a more equitable distribution of population over the country. Well, here we go again with Big Farmah. Then there's the Planning Reorganization act of 1949. And what do you really think Obama's and his Congress' draconian agenda about "green energy" is all about? The "gradual abolition of the distinction between town and country, by a more equitable distribution of population over the country" means: destroy all urban areas (destroy--not improve or beautify) by crushing them with poverty-striking regulations; tell those who live in the country how much water their toilets are allowed to flush and other crazy shit, so that we are all "equal" in slavery no matter where we choose to live.
10) Free education for all children in public schools...Combination of education with industrial production, and so on. Well, here we go: Obama's made sure we have plenty of "stimulus money" for public (government controlled) education, and education is one of his stated major priorities. And oh yes, he wants to make sure just about anyone can go to college--hopefully on the Federal Government's dime so that it then has the "right" to have the colleges tell the children exactly what jobs they "must" get.
Wake up, Americans. Obama, Reid, and Pelosi are taking us along all of the steps to Socialism. Live free or die, Americans! Join the Second Revolution at American Conservative Values! Make your voices heard, and throw out or impeach these criminals!
