The current road to serfdom is very different.
The part masquerades as two parties.

I’ve posted this link a dozen times here. I’ve been saying since early last year that Trump reminds me a little too much of the Strong Man.
Bkmrk.

Socialism is a giant monopoly that imposes universal wage and price controls which leads to economic chaos in distribution and production. Centralized economic planning and bureaucratic management leads to anarchy of production. A socialist government by its very nature is unable to bring order to the economic system.
Yeah this is also a great illistuutatios of the points raised by Sowell in his book “The Vision of the Anointed”.
Top down ‘solutions’ have never worked and never will. This is the failure of the Left. It is also the same trap that people fall into who promises to get ‘REALLY SMART PEOPLE” who will solve our problems. THis is diametrically opposed to the COnstitutionalist and their faith in the markets and the people to provide solutions from the bottom up. Crony capitalism is a sickness we have and none of the ‘really smart people’ will NEVER solve out problems only free markets and free people can do that.
I have had these on my hard drive for years, every once in a while, the situation is right to post them.
