Look who has taken out a google ad on this page. I'm curious as to what the cost was.

Socialism occurs when a government becomes a criminal organization that plunders the neighborhood to increase its power and ability to control the residents.

I would say we are moving toward fascism rather than socialism. The difference is that fascism allows private ownership with government direction of the economy through coercion and intimidation. Sound familiar.
Webster: political philosophy, movement, or regime (as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition

Last week we saw the last topic for the Amendments to the Constitution. Those began as a countdown from the 10th to the 1st, which I've admitted was poor planning, then continued from 11 to 27. It has been suggested that I start a new series doing the Articles one by one. I haven't checked, but I'd be very surprised if the Constitution doesn't already appear in an FR topic or three.

Anyway, consider this topic a bit of a breather, and a useful look at something that is definitely unconstitutional. Have a great week all, this one will appear in the next GGG Digest under "Longer Perspectives".

To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list.
GGG managers are SunkenCiv, StayAt HomeMother, and Ernest_at_the_Beach

I can’t remember what Russian leader said, “The goal of socialism IS communism!”

‘nuf said.

Socialism became inevitable in this country when the word “rich” was allowed by all to become a pejorative.
