Good example, yes, nothing like a little recent history to provide an example of just how badly government can muck things up.
What I find frustrating about those who think government is wonderful is that they conveniently ignore the collapse of the USSR.
Government ran everything in the USSR, killed 20 million plus of it’s citizens, and collapsed after a mere seventy years of existence.
Yet, rather than the USSR being a cautionary tale about government run amok, instead, they say “Oh, it will never happen here.”
Yeah, okay, so, what came after the Weimar Republic in Germany?
I was about to say — Hitler outdid the USSR, and it only took 12 years.
“Oh, it will never happen here.”
Indeed?
Obozo seems to be following the LIEberal/Socialist/Marxist playbook quickly and with no little success, at this juncture.
Even worse, they point to faults of our own, such as slavery, and claim that therefore we have no right to criticize the Marxists for their "excesses".
