I was actually thinking about the French election earlier, and for some reason it struck me hard, in a way that didn’t happen when I read about the results yesterday.

Socialism has never worked, can never work-—all it does is ruin lives and nations. And yet people continue to choose it, over and over again. This is the definition of total madness. The French guy says he’s going to tax the rich at a 75% rate. What is that supposed to accomplish, except the same result it’s ALWAYS accomplished?

When people adopt such willful stupidity, and happily sign up for their own ruin, collapse is inevitable.

Lib logic/planning says that when all countries tax at 75%, companies will stop going overseas. They will stay home and the govt can collect their cash. Reality says that those companies will then shut down. The govt then takes them over/Nationalizes them and employs people. Which in reality fails. A total collapse ensues.

Folks, we may as well accept it. It will happen. We can’t stop it as there are not enough people with sense left TO stop it. Just be ready to survive it.
