...”Mises wrote, “...the educated strata are more gullible than the less educated. The most enthusiastic supporters of Marxism, Nazism, and Fascism were the intellectuals, not the boors.” Indeed, Marx, Lenin, et al., were intellectuals, and the leaders of socialism have been relatively well-to-do educated folks like Bill Ayers, not salt-of-the-earth blue-collar folks”...

This is mysterious until one considers the evil part of human nature. The elite’s want to hold their power..While they feign otherwise, they really do not want a situation, such as traditional American capitalism, where the more skilled lower classes can rise to the top. In the Marxist state the elites long for, they would have the control to decide the economic fate of everyone, not the least of which is to secure their own position as elites. When the economic part of Marxism is secured, other horrible consequences can occur. For example, despots always remove the influence of religion which makes them God. As God, carried to the extreme, they just might decide that it is O.K. to rape little girls and boys or to kill old people. The depths of unbridled evil in the human heart is horrifying to say the least and Marxism opens the door to all those possibilities. Now, most elites, being protected from the raw side of life as they are, just develop fantasies about how life should be and are just plain ignorant about how it really is. Ignorance and idle time build a “devil’s workshop,” and that is a problem. We, as a people, should be very certain that our lawmakers, including the President, and their families, should have to live under the same laws they make for the rest of us. It is a crime that the private sector in American now has an average income of only half what the bureaucrat makes. That is a recipe for disaster, in and of itself. Pardon the long-windedness and rambling..It is hard to stay calm when a new blow to freedom comes out of Washington D.C. on a daily basis. WAKE UP, AMERICA!
