"The people flatter themselves that they have the sovereign power. These are, in fact, words without meaning. It is true they elected governors; but how are these elections brought about? In every instance of election by the mass of a people—through the influence of those governors themselves, and by means the most opposite to a free and disinterested choice, by the basest corruption and bribery. But those governors once selected, where is the boasted freedom of the people? They must submit to their rule and control, with the same abandonment of their natural liberty, the freedom of their will, and the command of their actions, as if they were under the rule of a monarch.... Nor were the superior classes in the actual enjoyment of a rational liberty and independence. They were perpetually divided into factions, which servilely ranked themselves under the banners of the contending demagogues; and these maintained their influence over their partisans by the most shameful corruption and bribery, of which the means were supplied alone by the plunder of the public money." - Alexander Fraser Tytler

None of those were communist countries. And they never claimed to be. They did call themselves socialist, although most people today call it state-capitalism.

I don’t favor an entirely flat tax, since 15% off the top for someone making $500,000 wouldn’t impact his ability to support oneself, whereas it will for someone squeaking by on $30,000 (and no children). Still think we should have a graduated rate, but EVERYBODY should pay in something. Right now we have half of all Americans paying nothing, and with the newly expanded welfare, a substantial amount taking out.
Taking a larger percentage of income for low wage earners is exactly what's happening now in local taxes. Low income workers pay a larger portion of their income in sales taxes and user fees. My state and county also give huge tax abatements to businesses. So the around 50% of school funding falls on residential owners.

Many people on the left already think like a communist who have eaten the propaganda and don't even know they think like a communist . If one thinks like a communist , they are a communist indoctrinated by propaganda and they have no idea that their belief system supports Communism. This is how they take the minds over . A slow osmosis of the mind feeding the masses.



The Obama transformation has it lined up . They use climate change to seek power. They will use name calling to seek power. They will hate the things that are attached to American culture making it all political. The flag, the anthem, sports, gender , race ,class and anything that points to our identity as a nation united .



They want to destroy all that is America.Our history , that America is bad, that America is racist, that America has to be destroyed and rebuilt into a Communist globalist entity with no identity. No borders, big government, no choice, dictated to what they can eat, drive, hear, believe, and one way to think. Removing words and adding others. Training people to think one way . No free thinkers.



No freedom, no power to the people. the government tells them how to bring up their children, to indoctrinate them in the schools. Communism touches all this and more. It is happening now.

Some might call baby steps laying the groun work for. That's why they try so hard to control the narrative. Eliminate opposing opinion or facts that go against their narrative they create an illusion that everyone is in agreement.

That means we don’t have private ownership of property, a classic communist characteristic.

Then I guess we've always been communist, because we never have.

Communism is taking over the world. It is not going right, It is all going toward bigger government.The democrats believe in big federal government. this is more dangerous that what the Republicans believe. They believe in states rights. Very hard to take over 50 states to become in agreement with big government takeover. The Federal government loves the power and this is how dictators are made. Not though states rights but through the Federal government infringing on states rights dictating to them such as Biden opening borders while the states have to deal with it . Biden stepping on states rights as he closed down a pipe line destroying jobs of the people in those states. Biden is a dictator already .


Trump gave the power to the states and cut regulation, cut taxes, and wanted to put all states people to work. Trump was for America first , not other countries such as Biden giving the OK on Russia's pipeline just after they take down ours.. Biden is the destroyer of American jobs, and the economy.


We full well know we can't have electric cars with a weak power grid. Oil has been the life line to our economy making products and moving products and moving people to their jobs, to there shopping places , to their every day activities that makes life better .



Biden is not for America. His priorities are first for Russia and China. It is quite obvious with his actions all under the hoax of climate change which the left eats up. A bunch of lies and propaganda they eat and have no idea they they are puppets for the globalist entities.


. Reason why Trump is hated and has to be smeared, is he is for America and the money of the rich are not. They are for China and any other cheap labor country to remove the middle class because we have been too rich to control. They now are using the media to brainwash the masses. It is very obvious with the narrative they have used and it is not truthful at all. The weak minded have fallen .

We WERE going to that style. Luckily Der Fuehrer was thrown out in the last election.
