Amazing how socialism has breeched our firewalls. It is insidious.
Our constitution isn’t explicitly anti-socialist — the founders did not foresee the coming threat — but with its emphasis on limited and decentralized power it certainly is a huge obstacle to socialism if applied with fidelity to the original intent.
Socialism is our nation’s greatest threat. We’ve weathered other storms and disagreements up to and including the causes of our civil war but socialism is bigger and more dangerous than these by far.
Socialism tests our commitment to our founding idea.
