So we should do exactly what about this?

Go read Santayana for one. ("Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.")

Even if the trend is inevitable, like alcoholics we can try to get one more good day before things collapse. And who knows, maybe history doesn't have to repeat itself.

However, for your specific question: Vote against the socialists, even if you have a hard time voting for the lesser of two evils. Become active by writing letters to the editor in your local paper. Do the research to weed out the socialists-in-moderate-clothing, then volunteer to help in a candidate's campaign. Grab a sign and march around outside a Democratic congrescritter's local office. Do what you can, instead of wishing someone else would (and yes, I've done every one of the things I've identified, and as a result I've been interviewed on some of our local TV stations - there are pictures in the Freeper archives to prove it). If one more state, one more county, one more precinct, one more voter is convinced the march toward socialism is a bad idea, it's better than the other way around.
