Communism and Socialism are a lot like rats and roaches. The lazier society is, the more of this we’ll get. People don’t want to pay attention to what’s going on around them, distracting themselves with the offerings of a deviant culture, and waiting for the government to solve all their problems.
Like Bork said, we’re “Slouching Towards Gomorrah”.
Hence, I suspect, the necessity of centralizing power in the feral gummint where it was never intended to be by our founders. They KNEW what would happen if when we got away from that which was expressly given to the states and the people.
A centralized point(D.C.) for this country and a centralized point(UN?) for world governance is much easier to manage than the de-centralized states.
