Socialist Horror to Come?
Shopping in Chavez's socialist utopia.
Fidel Castro must be very proud of his protege Hugo Chavez, who despite massive oil wealth has managed to drag Venezuela down Cuba's path to poverty:
Civilization having failed them, some hungry Venezuelans have resorted to looting. But by all means, let's elect Barack Obama and try socialism in America. Everyone hopes for change!

The day socialism comes to America
With the initiatives being proposed by Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton in the 2008 presidential campaign, it appears Norman Thomas was right all along.
Americans will, indeed, embrace every fragment of the socialist program in the name of liberalism. Both of the leading Democrats call for nationalized health care - for a power grab by Washington in which the federal government will seize full control of another one-seventh of the U.S. economy. This would, of course, be the most dramatic and irreversible step toward U.S. socialism in the nation's history.
Unfortunately, Americans don't even have a party representing clear, unequivocal opposition to socialism. The Republicans dare not even speak its name. John McCain admits publicly he doesn't know much or care much about economics. And so, Americans don't even have a reason or a mechanism to say no to the socialism that is coming to their country under the guise of liberalism - just the way Norman Thomas predicted it would come.

Awsop's Favle told and retold.....
MODERN VERSION:
The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter.
The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away.
Come winter, the shivering grasshopper calls a press conference and demands to know why the ant should be allowed to be warm and well fed while others are cold and starving.
CBS, NBC, PBS, CNN, and ABC show up to provide pictures of the shivering grasshopper next to a video of the ant in his comfortable home with a table filled with food. America is stunned by the sharp contrast.
How can this be, that in a country of such wealth, this poor grasshopper is allowed to suffer so?
Kermit the Frog appears on Oprah with the grasshopper, and everybody cries when they sing, "It's Not Easy Being Green."
Jesse Jackson stages a demonstration in front of the ant's house where the news stations film the group singing, "We shall overcome."
Jesse then has the group kneel down to pray to God for the grasshopper's sake.
Nancy Pelosi & John Kerry exclaim in an interview with Larry King that the ant has gotten rich off the back of the grasshopper, and both call for an immediate tax hike on the ant to make him pay his fair share.
Finally, the EEOC drafts the Economic Equity & Anti-Grasshopper Act retroactive to the beginning of the summer.
The ant is fined for failing to hire a proportionate number of green bugs and, having nothing left to pay his retroactive taxes, his home is confiscated by the government.
Hillary gets her former employer, the Rose Law Firm, to represent the grasshopper in a defamation suit against the ant, and the case is tried before a jury comprised of single-parent welfare recipients. The ant loses the case.
The story ends as we see the grasshopper finishing up the last bits of the ant's food while the government house he is in, which just happens to be the ant's old house, crumbles around him because he doesn't maintain it.
The ant has disappeared in the snow. The grasshopper is found dead in a drug related incident and the house, now abandoned, is taken over by a gang of spiders who terrorize the once peaceful neighborhood.
MORAL OF THE STORY: Be careful how you vote.

This is the dumbest and most pathetically ill-informed site I have ever seen.
I like this site and the story about the Grasshopper and the Ant. Socialism would be very bad for America.
Barack HUSSEIN Obama can not win this election or we will lose this country.
"This is the dumbest and most pathetically ill-informed site I have ever seen." For the sake of the American people and the world, I as an American citizen second this motion.
"This is the dumbest and most pathetically ill-informed site I have ever seen."
well, OF COURSE you would say that! If it doesn't agree with YOUR ideology, label it dumb and ill-informed, berate anyone who agrees with them...ooooh how enlightened and intelligent that is! Classic bullying tactics.
This site agrees with my ideology, but it is still the dumbest and most ill-informed site I've ever seen.
It must take a lot of will power to be this ignorant. If you think you are free under capitalism you possess a deformed notion of humanity... you have my contempt and pity.
Patria o Muerte, viva socialismo!
It was extremely interesting for me to read that article. Thank author for it. I like such themes and everything connected to them. I definitely want to read a bit more on that blog soon.

theoretically, socialism provides work opportunity for societal members in order to to explore pure science, math, non-popular arts, as well as other non-economically-productive pursuits. However, this system tends to be internally and externally unstable. I am not an anti for this system or ideology, but I also don't fully agree with its conception.
