Republicans have been sending their kids to college to get brain washed into socialism for decades.. a few of them have remained republican RINOS though.. others morphed into democrats..

And republicans wonder what has happened?.. not to speak of republican allowing voter fraud at each and every election with not a word of outrage..

With democrats being encouraged on this scale little wonder they actually in your face STOLE outright a Presidential election.. not mentioning various State and Local elections..

The republican have been BEGGING the democrats to do this daring them.. Any outrage now is laughable.. They just totally rejected ALL conservative candidates.. and selected the inventor of Romney-Care to run against the inventor of Obama-Care..

WHO TO BLAME!?.. Well all republican voters is to blame, all of them.. UNLESS the primarys are also totally corrupted voter fraud as well.. In which case the only party more corrupt than the democrats are the republicans..

For baiting the democrats to perform this travesty.. this fiasco.. this malfeasance..

Will finish reading in more detail later. But this at the end caught my eye:

“There is something else that should be mentioned. The American consumer, the individual, is both a buyer and a boss. When you leave a store in America, you may find a sign saying, “Thank you for your patronage. Please come again.” But when you go into a shop in a totalitarian country — be it in present-day Russia, or in Germany as it was under the regime of Hitler — the shopkeeper tells you: “You have to be thankful to the great leader for giving you this.”

*******************

Reminds me of “You didn’t build that.”

Another excerpt:

It is true, of course, that great painters and great writers have often had to endure great hardships. They might have succeeded in their art, but not always in getting money. Van Gogh was certainly a great painter. He had to suffer unbearable hardship and, finally, when he was 37 years old, he committed suicide. In all his life he sold only one painting and the buyer of it was his cousin. Apart from this one sale, he lived from the money of his brother, who was not an artist nor a painter. But van Gogh's brother understood a painter's needs. Today you cannot buy a van Gogh for less than $100,000 or $200,000.

Under a socialist system, van Gogh's fate might have been different. Some government official would have asked some well-known painters (whom van Gogh certainly would not have regarded as artists at all) whether this young man, half or completely crazy, was really a painter worthy to be supported. And they without a doubt, would have answered: "No, he is not a painter; he is not an artist; he is just a man who wastes paint"; and they would have sent him into a milk factory or into a home for the insane. Therefore all this enthusiasm in favor of socialism by the rising generation of painters, poets, musicians, journalists, actors, is based on an illusion. I mention this because these groups are among the most fanatical supporters of the socialist idea.
