The communists are coming

Communism once was the antithesis of democracy, now we’ve embraced it with a bloodless coup.

The communist creed is “everyone from according to their wants to everyone according to their needs.” This sounds like head lines we’re hearing today in the news, that more and more Americans are buying only what they need, as opposed to they want. This is scarier than the president bringing us socialism.

We’ve recently witnessed the rise of capitalist communism; where the minority of corporate crooks control all of our government and all of our accessibility to the basic necessities in life, like food; clothing; fuel and shelter.

Corporate consolidation in our food industry created agribusiness, leaving us with fewer choices and poison food. Consolidation has eliminated the boycott as an option to fight against price gouging. If we boycott one product there’s no telling how many other products that same company is selling in the same store, rendering the boycott, a Revolutionary tool useless.

Every year health insurance premiums increase while coverage decreases. This yearly increase ensures many Americans take home much less year after year.

That’s capitalistic communism, ensuring the robber barons make more money while the rest of us are all equal in taking home less.

Thomas Jefferson believed a government should provide for a society where citizens could be industrious and work towards self improvement. How can anyone work towards self improvement when they make less every year?

Our disastrous engagement in “the grave yard of empires” in Afghanistan will lead us to bankruptcy just like it bankrupted the Soviets. The Washington Spectator, a newsletter published by the Public Concern Foundation, reports that we have spent 947 billion between Iraq and Afghanistan thus far. And we have years to go in Afghanistan, so we’re told.

We have a secretive government who spies on us and allowed billionaire hedge funds and private equity firms to precipitate the downfall of our entire financial system.

The corporate crooks control this country with an iron fist and it’s as heavy handed as that of any communist iron fist.
