Says Obamacare leading U.S. down pathway to socialism
The surge of bullet-buying confirmed by the federal government – purchase estimates run into the billions of bullets – even as the U.S. military scrimps to find training ammo is raising lots of questions about the government’s so-far unexplained actions.
But a video that has been around since last year is being forwarded across the Internet as an explanation.
The six minutes recorded by Lt. Gen. William G. “Jerry” Boykin, retired, warns that America is well along the pathway that other societies have used to bludgeon and beat their populations into submission to socialism. Even to the point of establishing a “constabulary force” to control the people.
Maybe those bullets do have a destination.
Boykin now is executive vice president of Family Research Council. But during his military career, he was one of the original members of the U.S. Army’s Delta Force. He ultimately commanded those elite warriors in combat operations. Later, Boykin commanded all the Army’s Green Berets as well as the Special Warfare Center and School.
In all, Lt. Gen. Boykin spent 36 years in the army, serving his last four years as the Deputy Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence.
On the video, Boykin explains simply that he knows the standard process for creating a socialist or Marxist state because he studied it as a military officer.
His concern is that the six steps “done in every Marxist insurgency” now “are being done in America today.” He lists them: 1. nationalize major sections of the economy (the corporate bailouts), 2. redistribute wealth (the man appointed to head Medicare said health care is “nothing but a redistribution of wealth”), 3. discredit opposition (Boykin said he’s “never been so angry” as when the Obama administration called returning vets, pro-lifers and others

The devil’s in the details ping.
Pinging Kartographer for possible interest.
May the Constables wear bright colors and shiny caps.
“Details?”
Is that a new name for the White House?
Most folks don’t want to or simply can’t believe that the coming New World Order is real. Amerika has become “the frog in the pot”. Folks can’t believe that Marxism (he was a satanist) is the tool that will subjugate the world and that agents of the darkness have infiltrated most human institutions.
Bump to the Top

BTTT
Since the constitution means nothing to Obama - he makes an end run around anything and everything he doesn’t like via so-called executive orders - we can’t really imagine he feels constrained by posse comitatus.
I'm thinking brown shirts would be appropriate.
From the Communist Manifesto by Marx and Engels (1848):
“We have seen above that the first step in the revolution by the working class is to raise the proletariat to the position of ruling class to win the battle of democracy.
“The proletariat will use its political supremacy to wrest, by degree, all capital from the bourgeoisie, to centralize all instruments of production in the hands of the state, i.e., of the proletariat organized as the ruling class; and to increase the total productive forces as rapidly as possible.
“Of course, in the beginning, this cannot be effected except by means of despotic inroads on the rights of property, and on the conditions of bourgeois production; by means of measures, therefore, which appear economically insufficient and untenable, but which, in the course of the movement, outstrip themselves, necessitate further inroads upon the old social order, and are unavoidable as a means of entirely revolutionizing the mode of production.
“These measures will, of course, be different in different countries.
“Nevertheless, in most advanced countries, the following will be pretty generally applicable.
1. Abolition of property in land and application of all rents of land to public purposes.
2. A heavy progressive or graduated income tax.
3. Abolition of all rights of inheritance.
4. Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels.
5. Centralization of credit in the banks of the state, by means of a national bank with state capital and an exclusive monopoly.
6. Centralization of the means of communication and transport in the hands of the state.
....”
Does any of the above seem familiar?
I’m thinking visibility. At about 250 yards.

Interesting when I read your post I immediately knew that the new “trains on time” is the EBT card. As long as it’s reloaded every first of the month and there’s TV to watch there will be no problems from the Takers.
Of course if something happens to the EBT cards... Well then I think most of our cities will soon look like Detroit does.
