What the dumbass DemocRATS and their Obamacorns don’t understand is that you can’t have Socialism and the America we once had at the same time. Socialism is a parasite. It feeds off of capitalism. Unfortuantely, it eventually kills its host. That’s what is happening right now.

So, let’s see how this worked. We had simple capitalism, robber barons, and all the rest. Then we had a stock market crash. Then we had a recession. Then we got socializm, and we never recovered from the recession. Then we got a BIG WAR and everything was essentially command economy.

So, we actually WERE socialist, and we WEREN’T the “America we once had.” So what happened?

Seems like there was a somewhat successful pushback against the commies in the fifties and sixties. They fought back in the late sixties and torched Nixon in the seventies, but then things got so bad that we swung back to the right in the 80s and had a whole generation of growth and prosperity that even eclipsed that of the late fifties and sixties, which many of us never thought possible.

So, why do we listen to the commies now? Why do we let them trash us once again?
