Bob Pritts has summarized most of my fears with his column. It is really a shame that so many people know what is happening and have a good idea about what the results will be, but there doesn't seem to be anyone that is really seriously trying to do anything about it.
Socialist and far left leaning progressives either do not have the vision to see what the possible results will be or do not care. I suspect they do not care. Can you imagine all of the great deeds that have been made possible by a strong capitist system? The billions and billions of dollars given to Africa over the last 10 years to fight aids will not be availble with a Socilistic system. Socialism dries up innovation and investment. There will be NO middle class with the Socialist system...only a very large segment of underachievers leeching off the rest of the country. It is the tons of money that Capitalism produces that makes it possible to have space research, drug R & D, manufacturing, aid for victims of devasting storms, etc etc...all of that will be killed by Socialism. The American Dream will not be possible with Socialism. Who in their right minds wants to invest their funds in a start up business, work 80 and 100 hour weeks to become successful to only see Government come in and take most of it to hand out to the unwashed underachievers? So, socialism will kill small businesses, will kill start up businesses, will kill the middle class, and seriously damage the wealthy class. You may know already, that the wealthy classes will not sit on their thumbs and watch Government take all their possessions to pass out to the bottom dwellers? They will relocate the assets, their business, and their addresses to more tax and business friendly countries. Then, the milk cow will be gone and there will be no more milk, cream, cheese, beef. Socialism is worse than a cancer. And, if anyone isn't more than a little bit scared of all these things coming to pass, just must be either too stupid to breathe without help or just plain old hollowing-at-the-moon-dog crazy.
Obama needs to be declared DOA in November. Obama is a worst threat to the USA than Russia was during the Cold War. We knew Russia hated us and wanted to destroy us. With Obama it is much more insidious... he smiles a lot and declares that he loves America while the other hand is cutting off all the new shoots, digging up the roots, and paving over all the new and old growth.
Obama is Public Enemy #1.
