Socialism: The Rest of The Story
Does not
history tell us that Socialism is a failed political and economic system? Why?
Because Socialism and all that accompanies it is a flawed system based on
unsound principles that aren’t consistent with human behavior and can’t nurture
the human spirit. A stagnate Cuban economy and the rapid demise of socialist
Venezuela has apparently had little impact on younger Americans who think the U.S. government is a large ATM and all
they need do is insert a card and money will slide out. Truth is, all these
outcomes we see in Cuba and Venezuela are likely if Socialism were to replace
Capitalism as our economic and political system. No if, ands, or buts about it.
In both Cuba and Venezuela, the status quo is unsustainable, earning potential
is limited, property rights but for a few are nonexistent, personal motivation
is but abstract, national healthcare is lacking, taxes high and people are
hungry, worse yet, some are starving.
Polls and
research indicate one of the top issues for Millennials and Generation Z is the
national debt, rapidly approaching 25 trillion. Question? Have these same young
people considered that socialist programs will significantly add to the debt?
Apparently not, because to them, it seems that feelings are more important than
observable results.
Socialist
policies, in one form or another, are part of the platforms of some of the
announced Democratic presidential candidates. America’s new Democrat Socialists
beat a hasty retreat from historic truth when confronted with historical
indisputable facts as it pertains to Socialism’s failings. Is the concept, we can’t afford it, an
economic mantra accepted and taught to children/young adults by Leftist leaning
elitists/academia? No! For the most part Millennials and Generation Z persons
are less likely to accept as true, that one
must live within one’s means.
Woe to
America, if the younger generation were to be the difference in electing Ocasio
or Sanders or Pocahontas or any other number of self-proclaimed socialists to
this nation’s House of Representatives, its Senate or its highest office. Ronald Reagan said: “Freedom is
never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our
children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on
for them to do the same.”
Will this be the generation that fulfills his
prophecy? Much is riding on the next election. It’s so important to preserve
America’s Constitutional Republic, and make sure citizens understand that we
need to preserve it. Remember this: Socialism is a mild word for what it is. It’s
a form of extremism and government control that will take over our lives.

Socialism is a Direct Threat to America
One of the societal maladies produced by what passes for today’s
American Public and Post-Secondary Education systems, is the unawareness or
ignorance some young people, specifically Generation Y or millennials and Gen Z,
have about socialism. This ignorance is a direct threat to the future of our
Republic. For young people who weren’t alive during the geopolitical tension
between the Soviet Union and the United States and the revulsions
that came from Socialism and its wicked cousin Communism, the notion that
they can get free stuff from the
government is compelling, one might rightly conclude addictive. Excluding
Uniformed Service Members, most young people today have sacrificed little for
America. Too many of the Y and Z Generation adults have bought into the idea that White wealthy Americans, conglomerate, and big corporations are malevolent because they have pilfered money from
others, to include the underprivileged, minorities of color, the
disenfranchised and essentially those unable to rub two pennies together. The
rest of the story in detail will follow in my next post.

Today's Reality of Sociopolitical Abortion Part 2 of 2
America seems to no longer follow the fundamental
logic by which things were probable, or so it appears. Appalling things, like
New York's abortion law are now deemed fitting for the public. The liberal and
degenerate of society extols the mass murder of babies that the system calls
"abortion" or "freedom of choice."
Short of combat
on the battlefield, no one should have the right to kill a human except in
self-defense. Even if the human is only 8 months and 29 days old. Regardless to
one's affiliation or how our country's leadership (executive, judicial &
legislative) chooses to paint the portrait, third trimester termination of a
fetus, a child, a human life is murder.
Is it not
interesting how both the Third Reich’s National Socialist German Workers Party
(Nazis), and America’s Radical Progressive/Socialist Left’s behavior towards an
innocent and defenseless subset of humanity is reminiscent of each other? Did
not both political organizations dispatch millions of innocent beings who they
deemed undesirable or inconvenient? The only non-common denominator is one
group has paid in full for their transgressions, the other’s recompense will be
doled out at a future date, determined by Jehovah-God.
Sorry Democrat
Party, Kamala Harris, Chuck Schumer, Ocasio-Cortez, Nancy Pelosi, Elizabeth
Warren, Gov. Cuomo, Gov. Northam, Planned Parenthood, Et al. I contend there is
little difference between your championing abortion on demand than Hitler,
Himmler, Heydrich, Eichmann, Goring, Goebbels, and the Third Reich being
proponents for the extermination of all European Jews and others deemed
conveniently expendable. Have I crossed the socio-political line in what I say?
I think not. If I have, so be it. Facts are facts. With few exceptions,
does not today’s Democratic Progressive Left like their Nazi party counterparts
promote the liquidation of a human subset?
Does not a
culture of death deny the sanctity, dignity, and personal humanity of the
unborn? Are not all human beings persons? If a person is a being, such as a
human, can we not conclude that as a being, he/she has certain capacities or
attributes consisting of personhood? This being so, why is there a godless
mindset that draws an arbitrary distinction between what it means to be human
and a person? Pro-abortionist zealots wrongfully claim the unborn is not a
person, and therefore conclude abortion is moral. In their pride, they elevate
their personal worth above the unborn. They deny the very essence of humanity
they also held when they were born.
As for me, I
will not allow the godless acts of others to keep me from fighting for
righteousness. I challenge all persons to rise-up and defend the defenseless
from being put to death. Why not work together to build a culture that
cherishes innocent life. And let us affirm a fundamental truth: All children
born are made in the image of God, born or unborn. The only way to
defend the dignity of every person is to prohibit the abortion of children who
can feel pain in the mother’s womb.
The Democrat progressive
wing and their secular socialist Left have drawn the battle lines. If America
is to survive the secularist’s onslaught we must put on the Armor of God, raise His standard
and fight the good fight? For America’s sake, I pray we win the day.
