Socialist States
A Rantburg(tm) original editorialBy Scooter McGruder A certain irony struck me while considering the current "occupy Wall Street" movement. Among leftists the term "occupy" is a curse when applied to the Zionist entity, i.e. Israel, but somehow they think "occupation" becomes a righteous act when they do in the financial capitol of our nation. A deeper irony is their goal: a quasi-Marxist Utopian Socialism which is alien to our capitalistic republican democracy. They fail to recognize that having rejected the basic tenets of collective Socialism in favor of pure market economy capitalism, Communist China and the states of the former United Soviet Socialist Republics are expanding their markets and influence, while the governments of USA and Europe have been investing deeper and deeper into socialist policy and bureaucratic tyranny, with their economies failing on cue. Despite a proven track record of failure in the USSR and China, today's American leftists actually believe that Socialism is the best solution for our economic problems! Nazism was, literally, National Socialism. Our republic, our nation, cannot afford to embrace such an ideology. Socialism destroys not only the economy, but the soul of a nation. Liberty with security is the only true path to financial success. Posted by: Scooter McGruder 2011-10-11 |
