I hope we’re not descending into Marxism, though it certainly appears that we’re heading in that direction. Government involvement in private industry is getting to be unconscionable. The whole economic mess was initiated by the government getting into the mortgage business and providing loan guarantees for people that never would have been eligible without the government. Wall Street compounded the problem by securitizing the debt leading to the collapse. We recently had the government providing an $8,000 tax credit for first time home buyers on their taxes. When that didn’t work, the government changed it to where now they get the $8,000 at closing. Once again we’re subsidizing people who can’t afford the houses their buying. Couple that with the government building cars, banking, ,controlling energy and trying to get into medical care (20 % of GDP)—All with our tax dollars. It sounds like socialism at the very least. What direction would you venture to say we are going?

I especially like the quote where the Pravda author says Russians would not “roll over and give up our souls”. I’m reading The Gulag Archipelago right now and that’s exactly what the author chides the Soviets for doing. To say we are descending into Marxism is just hilarious. The test, and the only test, will come Nov 4 2012. Until then it’s just ramblings.

By the way Seattle had yet another rally. After the tax teaparty we had a prop 8 rally attended by 5x the tax crowd. Todays health care rally in support of Obama drew thousands. I haven’t seen the latest count. If that’s Marxist support bring it on.

“The American descent into Marxism is happening with breath taking speed.”

Not my words, and no need to wonder how completely the drive-by MSM is covering comrade Obama’s tracks anymore. Pravda is now more conservative than the New York Times. Yes, these are the printed words of Pravda. Pravda!

It must be said, that like the breaking of a great dam, the American decent into Marxism is happening with breath taking speed, against the back drop of a passive, hapless sheeple, excuse me dear reader, I meant people.

True, the situation has been well prepared on and off for the past century, especially the past twenty years. The initial testing grounds was conducted upon our Holy Russia and a bloody test it was. But we Russians would not just roll over and give up our freedoms and our souls, no matter how much money Wall Street poured into the fists of the Marxists…

Pravda summarizes our dire situation nicely in it’s final sentences. Please be sure to access the full article in the post article link…T

…The final collapse has come with the election of Barack Obama. His speed in the past three months has been truly impressive. His spending and money printing has been a record setting, not just in America’s short history but in the world. If this keeps up for more then another year, and there is no sign that it will not, America at best will resemble the Wiemar Republic and at worst Zimbabwe.

These past two weeks have been the most breath taking of all. First came the announcement of a planned redesign of the American Byzantine tax system, by the very thieves who used it to bankroll their thefts, loses and swindles of hundreds of billions of dollars. These make our Russian oligarchs look little more then ordinary street thugs, in comparison. Yes, the Americans have beat our own thieves in the shear volumes. Should we congratulate them?

…The proud American will go down into his slavery with out a fight, beating his chest and proclaiming to the world, how free he really is.

Thanks, @rblinne, I think this is a very important conversation for us to have. I am going to take some time though and respond in detail.

I’m gathering together a list of poll data, and am going to see if I can post a response as a post rather than a comment, since the multiple links will send the spam filter into red alert mode!
