Why Democrat Ideas Don't Work: Reality

Dear Comrade LoonIT,

Come on, Loon.

I don’t just complain, although I will admit that I’m very good at complaining.

I also agitate, exasperate, bother, annoy, traumatize, enrage and vituperate. Especially vituperate. That’s my favorite.

And that’s just what I do to Republicans.

But why not complain? The economy still sucks despite unprecedented liberal spending. The banking system and healthcare systems are more broken than ever before because of unprecedented liberal interference. And the country is definitely less secure than when Obama took office, despite average Americans being asked to surrender their civil liberties to help promote his warped agenda.

Please tell us one major policy initiative of Obama’s that has worked for the benefit of ordinary Americans.

Taxes, higher.

Healthcare costs, higher.

Fuel costs, higher.

Wages, worse.

Inflation? Yep.

Housing, still broken.

If you thought the problem under Bush was that the rich were getting rich while the poor were getting poorer, then you must really have a problem with the progress made under Obama.

Because the problem isn’t just that prices and taxes are going up but wages on the low end are remaining stagnant.

From the Huffington Post in 2012:

In other words, inequality has been even more pronounced under Obama than it was under George W. Bush.

This news may not come as a shock if you're one of the many Americans who lost their job during the recession and couldn't find another that paid as well. It also might not surprise you if you're one of the 46 million people living in poverty -- a record number, as it happens -- or among the millions of Americans who can get by week to week, but would be ruined by a single financial emergency.

Dem ideas aren’t supposed to work as advertised. They are designed to get people to vote for them. In that sense, they work perfectly.

Dim ideas don’t work because they always rely on the failed policies of the past. They believe they are so smart that their ideas CANNOT be wrong. When they fail they rationalize that it was only because they did not do them enough.

They are not rational enough to look at the results of their policies and see that they are taking them farther from their goal. Thus they cannot conclude that they are going in the wrong direction.

Absolutely right, if our pioneer forefathers had been like typical liberals young men who tried to follow Horace Greeley’s advice would have wound up in Cuba. The liberals have taken over the government and that is why our country is beginning to resemble Cuba.

"Why is this OK?"

Because the Redman has a nobility that those stupid caricatures beneath him don't.

Democrat (Liberal BS) ideas don’t work because Liberals live in the theoretical. The Libtards wet dream is... If everybody did exactly what we envision the world would be a wonderful place where everyone is the same. No hate, no bigotry, no competition, no personal dreams, no rewards, no wealth, no greed, no religion, no wars, no pursuits, no choice, no thinking. Just love & peace... a collective of programmed Zombies living amongst unicorns and rainbows serving the collective and the state...

Liberal ideology is about collectivism, in other words... the individual or free-will can’t exist in a liberal world view. Because individual choice will not voluntairly subjugate into a collective herd and obey a highly regulated, indoctrinated and administered life imposed by the state(Liberal Theoretical Utopia of social harmony and welfare). Simply put... If the individual doesn’t walk to the slaughter on his/her own... Liberals will regulate or limit their options until they have no other choice but to accept the will of the state. Liberalism is Communism plain and simple. Eliminate free-will/choice, replace with state-will/no-choice (Zombies)

But the only way the Liberal scheme of Communism would work is to shred the constitution and replace it with a new one where government is the supreme authority, the states representation is disolved and the new USSA is ruled by an oligarchy of council elites with a tyrant at the helm and a NAZI Gestapo national police force to check your loyalty to the state and that your papers are always in order.

The “ideas” don’t have to work, but the American people think that they will.
