WHAT’S BEHIND HILLARY’S ‘STRONGER TOGETHER’ SLOGAN, SOCIALISM?
"The end justifies the means."
"Say and do whatever it takes to win."
"Truth is irrelevant."
This is the strategy of the Hillary Clinton/Tim Kaine presidential ticket. Socialism, social and economic doctrine that calls for public rather than private ownership or control of property and natural resources!
According to the socialist view, individuals do not live or work in isolation but live in cooperation with one another. Furthermore, everything that people produce is in some sense a social product, and everyone who contributes to the production of a good is entitled to a share in it.
Society as a whole, therefore, should own or at least control property for the benefit of all its members.
This conviction puts socialism in opposition to capitalism, which is based on private ownership of the means of production and allows individual choices in a free market to determine how goods and services are distributed. Socialists complain that capitalism necessarily leads to unfair and exploitative concentrations of wealth and power in the hands of the relative few who emerge victorious from free-market competition—people who then use their wealth and power to reinforce their dominance in society. Because such people are rich, they may choose where and how to live, and their choices in turn limit the options of the poor. As a result, terms such as individual freedom and equality of opportunity may be meaningful for capitalists but can only ring hollow for working people, who must do the capitalists’ bidding if they are to survive. As socialists see it, true freedom and true equality require social control of the resources that provide the basis for prosperity in any society. Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels made this point in Manifesto of the Communist Party (1848) when they proclaimed that in a socialist society “the condition for the free development of each is the free development of all.”
HILLARY: WORSHIPPING THE GOD OF GOVERNMENT!!
It takes more faith to depend on the government than it does to trust in God's provision, but you'd never know it watching Progressives worship at their government golden calf that owns nothing at all unless it takes it from you.
Thanks to capitalism, Bernie Sanders went from being an unemployed middle aged socialist hippie living in a shack with dirt floors to living the D.C. dream while giving Hillary a run for her money in the race to the White House.
Both Democrat Party presidential candidates overlook the fact that thanks to God's grace and good old American capitalism, the sky is the limit in the United States. No matter your skin color or which side of the railroad tracks you were born, every person has an equal chance to define his own definition of the American Dream. Bernie should know better. Sure, at times the system seems rigged to advantage the rich, but if we let that become an excuse rather than a source of motivation to achieve our dreams, we'll spend our lives running in place blaming our failures on someone else.
The constitution charges the government with the duty to provide protection to the citizens and the Bible charges citizens to provide for the helpless and poor, no matter what Pope Frances says. The Pontiff pontificates about the "evils" of capitalism, but if he were honest he'd admit the real problem is spiritual. Any time a nation makes government its god, socialism and communism likely follow.
America doesn't have a capitalism problem; America has a first commandment problem: "You shall have no other gods before me." In the name of social justice, religious leftists try to guilt people into accepting socialism by suggesting that is what Jesus would do. When asked which of God's laws was greatest, Jesus didn't hesitate; it is the first commandment. And he said the second greatest is to love and care for others like you do for yourself. He didn't instruct us to pass that responsibility off to the government.
How true are William Penn's words: "Those who will not be governed by God will be ruled by tyrants." We're not there yet, but we're pretty close, given the popularity numbers of some of the more unsavory characters running for president. The day Moses descended from Mount Sinai, God made it unmistakably clear how he feels about breaking his first commandment. We are reminded that exchanging God for government never ends well in the rise and fall of nations. The choice in this election is evident. To whom shall we bow, to God or the government?
SOCIALISM VS. CAPITALISM
The truth about what the media has conveniently left out.
The truth of the matter is that it's not about the Candidate anymore, and that's because in the old days the two parties were both closer to the middle, but now they are so far apart that the vote is about ideology!! It's either Socialism with large Government involvement in your life, or Capitalism with small Government involvement in your life!.......Can’t get any simpler than that!!.... You can bitch about any of the candidates on either side of the aisle, but by doing so are allowing the Media to play you like fools. You should be checking out the possibility of fixed election, and the chance that the party could override the public wants, and override the will of the people!! You should be concerned that Hillary won't be held legally for her part in the emails, her Clinton foundation, and Benghazi, and while we all sit around with these pissing contest skirmishes, the 2 political party insiders are huddling behind closed doors to override the will of the American People.
Trump is not a Politician, but delivers a heartfelt message of living the American Dream, and making America great again......!! Rubio and Cruz, who like Obama are not 'Natural Born Citizens, keep saying how Trump is not Conservative enough, but we have lived with Conservatives letting Obama run all over the GOP, and bypassing the Congress!!! So I say to you, Trump is not a conservative as we are used to, but a conservative who has a different vision, and that vision has nothing to do with insider politics, but the silent majority, no matter what side of the aisle who are showing up in groves to take back our country......
When it comes to not reading the Constitution, which is a charge leveled against Trump, I say I have never read it either, but the beliefs of what it represents were instilled in me by my community and upbringing. My beliefs are lived and learned, but unlike Obama who uses it to undermine this once exceptional country by using the power of his famous 'Pen and Phone,' could care less about either the Constitution or this country, but only to advance their agendas while bypassing Congress! Trump is living the American Dream, and has lived it, and doesn't need to read it to understand what it represents and stands for......
5 WAYS SOCIALISM DESTROYS SOCIETIES!
"The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings; the inherent virtue of socialism is the equal sharing of miseries." -- Winston Churchill
There are a lot of arguments about whether communism, socialism, and liberalism are the same thing. What shouldn't be arguable is that they're all closely related branches of the same tree. If you don't want to live in a house made out of Aleppo Pine, you probably won't like a Coulter Pine or Eastern White Pine house either. However, since socialism has failed so often, socialists of every stripe bend over backwards to disassociate themselves from the many other disasters created by their ideology. Still, a pine by any other name is still a pine.
Socialism is particularly dangerous because it's so perfectly suited for the modern era. It's the ultimate "miracle" product: it's "nice," it's "fair," it'll make you feel good about yourself, it'll "help" people who "deserve it" by taking things away from people who "have so much" they'll barely miss it. It sounds wonderful, doesn't it? But, like most products with sleazy salesmen and hidden track records, the promises socialism makes are all a mirage. Since our schools do a terrible job of teaching history and economics these days, it's our job to explain how socialism slowly, insidiously eats away at the core of a society.
1) It kills economic growth: Strong economic growth is what produces jobs, tax revenue and a better standard of living for everyone, including the poor and middle class. That's what John F. Kennedy was driving at when he said, "A rising tide (in the economy) lifts all boats." Socialism strangles economic growth in the crib by penalizing success and rewarding failure. When you loot the successful people in a society to give it to the less successful, you quite naturally reduce the number of successful people and encourage more people to fail. This leads to a never-ending cycle. The more people in need there are, the more the successful must be penalized to pay for them. The more the successful are penalized, the fewer successful people there are. This causes wealth to concentrate in fewer hands, the economy slows down, and even more people need help. It goes on and on until you get a slow economy that can't produce enough tax revenue to sustain itself. That's exactly what killed the Soviet Union, it's killing Greece right now and sadly, the United States and most of Western Europe is on exactly the same path.
2) It stifles free speech: Why is there ridiculous government propaganda in nations like North Korea? Why are most schools, papers, and colleges run by liberals in the United States?
Why do liberals often try to disrupt conservative speakers on college campuses? Why are there such extreme speech codes in Canada that it practically makes some conservative arguments illegal? Why does speaking out against the government risk imprisonment in China and the old Soviet Union? Because socialism requires protection, propaganda, intimidation, and darkness to survive. Socialism can't survive honest, informed debate about its merits among people who are free to choose or reject it because it would not survive the conversation. As Reagan said, "How do you tell a communist? Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It's someone who understands Marx and Lenin."
3) It leads to an increasingly tyrannical government: Freedom and socialism go together like oil and water. The more socialism you have, the less freedom you will have because socialism can't survive if people are free to choose whether they want socialism or not. People who are free to say what they want will criticize socialism's many failures. Areas that aren't tightly controlled will move towards the free exchange of ideas and goods, not socialism. So, socialism requires a massive bureaucracy that almost inevitably grows. As government grows, it inevitably becomes more centralized, more distant from the people and ultimately more menacing.
4) It creates strife and division: Socialism is all about turning people against each other. It has to be. After all, if you believe in controlling people's lives, the people who don't wish to be controlled need to be vilified. If you believe in confiscating the wealth of successful people who won't give it up willingly, then others must be convinced they're terrible human beings who deserve to be punished. "Victim" classes must be created for the socialists to defend because if everyone is responsible for himself, what need is there for the socialist? Eventually, those who depend on government for their livelihood and those that the government smears and loots to pay them off come to hate each other.
5) Socialists believe the ends justify the means: Like the pigs in Orwell's Animal Farm, socialists believe that, "All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others." For a socialist, the overriding concern is always promoting socialism; so process, rules and regulation mean different things for different people. Fidel Castro may have been the leader of a Communist revolution against the evil "rich people" in Cuba, but he’s worth 900 million dollars today. A law broken by a Democrat and a Republican may be treated very differently by the papers, the courts, and even the Department of Justice under Eric Holder. As Margaret Thatcher explained:
"Left-wing zealots have often been prepared to ride roughshod over due process and basic considerations of fairness when they think they can get away with it. For them the ends always seem to justify the means. That is precisely how their predecessors came to create the gulag."
One of the reasons so many socialist nations are wracked with violent protests and revolutions is because when the rule of law is abandoned, only outlaws have any hope of receiving justice.
DISGRACE FOR HILLARY TO REPRESENT U.S. WOMEN!!
"The end justifies the means."
"Say and do whatever it takes to win."
"Truth is irrelevant."
This is the strategy of the Hillary Clinton/Tim Kaine presidential ticket.
Clinton, like many liberal elites, acts as if she is above the law. Corruption in our federal government is rampant. The establishment that approves of the corruption exists in both parties as well as in the mainstream media.
Clinton has only Donald Trump to defeat, while "We, the people" and Trump have to defeat massive media bias, the Democratic Party and the Republican Party, as well as Clinton. We must wake up and take back our country from the professional politicians and bureaucrats. Trump is the bureaucrats' worst nightmare!
The establishment's media pawns make a huge deal out of Trump's vulgarity while paying scant attention to the most scandal-plagued public official in recent history, Hillary Rodham Clinton!
The only jobs she has created are for lawyers defending her.
Our only chance for real change is electing Trump and Mike Pence, and the probability of that is why the establishment is screaming blue murder.
We can learn much from their vice-presidential picks. Clinton picks an attack dog, while Trump picks a statesman. It's a national disgrace that the women of this country could be represented by Hillary Clinton. Even Democrats are embarrassed by this woman, evidenced by the striking lack of yard signs.
