"Thus we have an infinite number of plans for organizing it: tariffs, protection, benefits, subsidies, encouragements, progressive taxation, public schools, guaranteed jobs, guaranteed profits, minimum wages, a right to relief, a right to the tools of labor, free credit, and so on, and so on. All these plans as a whole — with their common aim of legal plunder — constitute socialism."

But on the rest of the points you made, I agree very much. And the best strategy that I know of would stop federal funding to state, county and municipal governments first. Weaken them that way, and most of the bipartisan power of socialism will be busted.

In general, stop the outlawing of men starting new, small manufacturing operations on their own remote properties, and stop messing with their families.
