I’ve been thinking a lot lately about the problems that our country is facing, and I’m just so … frustrated! The world is upside down, and no one seems to notice. We’ve got congress trying to spend us out of debt. Barack Hussein Obama thinks a trillion-dollar stimulus package is super idea. Never mind that we don’t have the money; we’ll just print it. But don’t worry, if we flood the nation’s money supply with a trillion dollars worth of monopoly money it won’t cause inflation, right? Seriously, didn’t our congressmen and women go to high school? Because I remember learning about this stuff in my l0th grade economics class! Another thing I learned in that class: Capitalism = Good
Even more offensive to my sensibilities is a frightening new paradigm of socialistic thinking that is washing over our nation like a terrifying wave of political effluent; the direct result of decades of greed, and selfishness. America has become a “me too” state full of whiners, wimps, and crybabies who think that everything has to be “fair” all the time. And before you go thinking that absolute fairness is a good thing, I want you to stop and consider the cost. What is the cost? Oh where do I begin? How about a loss of freedom, control, and independence? And if you think that’s not so bad, just ask any person living in a “home” how they like it. Are they happy being dependent? Do they enjoy having every aspect of their life structured by someone else? Do they like being told what to do? I think they’ll tell you it sucks!
If you think that socialism won’t try to creep in, or even if it does, that it won’t cause suffering and loss, well, clearly you’re not a student of history. This story has been repeated over and over for millennia throughout the history of mankind. And I’m here to tell you, we’re no different from those who walked this path before us, including making the tragic mistake of allowing ourselves to think we’re different; to be filled with a blind confidence and pride which surely is a sign of (if not a direct precursor) to our inevitable failure and destruction. Pride goeth before a fall. And a wise man knows it, and stays away from it.
So what is the point of all this? What am I really trying to say? Well, in a nutshell, America—with its arrogant, misguided leadership—is on a high speed track to destination socialism. But, trust me, you don’t want to go there. Trading your independence for security because you think it’s going to bring you “stuff” is like killing the goose that laid the golden egg. In the end, you’ll wind up, sadly, with neither.
If you care about your future and the future of your children, you’ll want to give serious thought to what I am saying here. Contemplate what I have to say, and arrive at your own conclusion, but understand that we’re at a turning point in this country, and the consequences of our decisions now will have a profound affect on our future, and the future of our children.
Liberalism and democracy are nothing more than elected socialism. Our country, the USA, was founded as a constitutional republic, and not a democracy. When we pledge allegiance to the flag, we say, “and to the republic for which is stands.” We don’t say, “and to the democracy for which it stands.” That’s because we are not a democracy, or at least, we’re not supposed to be! The democratic party is operating our government in a manner inconsistent with its founding principles; the result of which will eventually bring an end to our freedom if we continue to allow it!
A full explanation of the relationship between liberalism, and socialism is beyond the scope of this post, but if you’re interested in an expanded understanding of liberalism, fascism, and “progressive” democracy, I highly recommend the book, Liberal Fascism, by Jonah Goldberg, which explains things far better than I ever could.
So let me repeat, liberalism is socialism … in disguise. And socialism is a form of slavery. Let me explain how by defining what slavery is: Slavery is the act of forcing of someone to work, involuntarily, for the purpose of another. In other words, if I force you to work, against your will, for me; that would be slavery. And wouldn’t you agree that such an act is an unethical and evil thing to impose upon another human being?
But what if it’s the government that’s doing the forcing? What if you were required by the government to spend 15 hours a week doing yard-work for another (perhaps less fortunate) person, or face going to prison? Would that be slavery? Would that be forcing you to labor, involuntarily, for purpose of another? Or, what if you were forced to relinquish your property, or money, which you have earned through your own labor, for the purposes of someone else? Is that not essentially the same thing—the same thing as slavery?
Well, the honest answer is, yes, that is slavery. It’s wrong, it’s immoral, and yes, it is evil. No one has a right to force someone else to labor for the purposes of another; but that is exactly what socialism does. It’s exactly what the democratic political party seeks to impose. It is exactly what Barack Obama is talking about when he refers to “spreading the wealth”.
I know this is a controversial statement, but I must say it: The democrat party, including President-elect Barack Obama, believe in, and support the use of slavery, and by that virtue the unjust oppression of the entire American Public.
I am sorry! It’s not my fault they chose this position, but they have, and I am sorry for that! But I can’t change it, and I’m not going to lie about it. In fact, I want you to know what you’re getting into. I want you to be aware of it.
Now, I’m not saying that all democrats are evil. Many have good intentions, and believe that they’re doing the right thing. They think that the ends justify the means. They suffer from a megalomaniacal delusion that they can do no wrong because their intentions are good. But they are wrong. There is a good reason why so many countries—steeped in socialism—suffer from an ethereal sense of darkness and misery. It’s because socialism is inherently evil, and using evil designs to try to achieve societal utopia is a futile endeavor, because the two concepts are fundamentally incompatible.
You can’t achieve goodness through actions that are fundamentally evil and wrong. The ends don’t justify the means, and the results of ignoring such wisdom will always be tragic. You can’t regulate people into greatness, and you can’t build a healthy society through oppression and slavery.
Freedom and Capitalism built up this country and made it great. They are not a failure as our media and government want us to believe. Our economic problems are absolutely the result of government interference and tampering with fundamental market principles of capitalism and freedom.
We can’t spend our way out of debt, or oppress our way out of unfairness. And we can’t elect slave-masters to save us from poverty and inequality. These things won’t work, and we won’t be saved.
I don’t know how to make it any clearer. I don’t know how else to convince you. I can only tell you what I know, and what I believe. I can only tell you the truth, and pray that somehow you’ll believe it. That we’ll escape from the chains that are being drawn around us, and defeat the agents of change who seek to take away our freedom, money, and independence.
Don’t fall into the trap. Don’t get into the strange man’s car because he’s offering a piece of candy. Understand that there’s no such thing as a free lunch!
We are standing at the edge, looking down at a hole from which any escape is unlikely without real bloodshed. Let’s not go in. Let’s not lose our country.
We need to wise up! We need to elect good leaders! we need to get involved, because if we don’t stop the foolishness, and educate ourselves, and make the right choices: We, our children, and their children are at dire risk of becoming slaves to a system….
Please, don’t let it happen!
