The Scourge of Socialism, by Robert Gore
It's easy to be the great guy in the bar when you're buying rounds on someone else's dime. Uncle Bernie is peddling poison and calling it craft brew. If you encounter someone who's feeling the Bern, listen patiently as they wax enthusiastic about the coming socialist utopia...if only we'll all wise up and elect him. When they're done, offer to buy them a one-way plane ticket to North Korea, Cuba, or Venezuela, but only if they’ll stay there for a year. That, of course, is not what they have in mind, and those nations are not, of course, the intended models for the United States. Intentions, of course, don't mean squat. You shall know socialism by its dark deeds. Nothing would be more gratifying than seeing its proponents discover darkness the hard way. Unless, of course, they take the rest of us with them.

For the life of me, I just don't understand how there is any support in this country for socialism. Are people really that blind or stupid?
To understand how there is support for socialism, one must understand both why some people are evil AND why such evil is tolerated in a society.
To answer your question, most people are both that blind and that stupid, but worse yet, such people are also evil.
They are not stupid just terribly ill-informed by teachers who are the same products of the system. Hegel was the basis of the educational systems of both Hitler's Nazis Germany as well as Stalin's Soviet Russia. What more need be said about why our educationally manufactured morons are thinking Socialism (oh, it is Communism that is really being pushed!).....
For what its worth!
dominance/submission
sadism/masichism
it is actually a very clever acronym.
We read letters from her sister in Kiev. The sister told of being at the market with her 6 year old daughter.The daughter saw some strawberries and asked her mother if she could have one. Imagine having to tell a six year old that you could not afford to buy her a single strawberry. My grand daughter eats a quart of strawberries flown in fresh from California when she's at our house.
Now, thinking of the look in that child's eyes, explain to me the greater good of socialism.
I do have one problem, however. You said, "When they’re done, offer to buy them a one-way plane ticket to North Korea, Cuba, or Venezuela, but only if they’ll stay there for a year." In my world, they would have to stay there forever.
If it is OK for Democrats to drive their voters to the polls, would it be OK for us to pay for moochers' one-way plane tickets?
Now the unvarnished Truth is smacking them upsides their heads and their only hope now of getting everything promised from birth is that some Snake Oil salesman like Bernie comes along promising them the world when all he will produce is more disaster with which they will be engulfed by! That is the sad legacy of the Baby Boomers and the 1960's mentality now infesting our once great nation.
Too bad these poor young folks are going to have to live with the evils of Socialism (and worse) that will be their due if Sanders or Clinton ever get elected! For what its worth!
Another nice piece Robert...
I'm still of the mind that a Jeffersonian Revolution is needed. Unfortunately, it will only be 10% of Americans who will participate as in the original American Revolution.
It's okay. I've spotted a lot more of my own glitches in the Gulch when it was too late to edit.
