Many of them do admit they are far left socialist Marxists.

This guy doesn’t understand the the problems he sees come from Marxist values. Look at Detroit. The “Paris of the West” destroyed by years of democrat/Marxist rule.

capitalism works...but when liberal progressive leaders get voted into office - they use their “socialist” views to form and pass policy that favors their system over that of the competitive urge to do better that capitalism brings to the table...if left unchecked (which is what has happened since the 60’s) - it tears down the perception that capitalism has failed, where in reality it hasn’t - it’s just been infected with socialist policy from those infiltrators decades before...all of which was told by those in the 60’s on the dangers of allowing progressives into office or having any type of political/social/economic power or authority...

We got here not by will - but by ignoring what was occurring right in front of our faces!

David Simon seems to forget that Baltimore and Maryland has been dominated by liberals/leftists/democrats for decades. The horrors he has seen in his state and city is what the left has created. He is absolutely brain washed.

The lack of repent and narcissism and sense of entitlement and advanced progressed race is what gets most people stuck with Marxism.

If this sense of superiority waned before a minute of humbleness, there would be hope. But right now a bunch of self righteous arrogant emotional retards similar to Nazi emotionalitors trudge on.

America is a country that is now utterly divided when it comes to its society, its economy, its politics.

And their point is?

Some of the flaming Liberals that I run into think they are on a debate team.

Argue a point even when they know they are wrong just so they will not lose.

I know a guy that has a house full of guns but will excuse the left because he thinks it makes him appear “smarter.”

I remember back in the 50’s when there was only ONE America.

Those days of McCarthy sniffing out communists, before the invasion of the illegal brown skinned roaches from Mexico, the days before special rights were granted to special races based only on their skin color, where public schools actually taught the lessons that mattered in life, and on and on and on.......

Simon views the social contract as the rich giving more and more to the govt for redistribution to the poor. However, the social contract goes both ways. He ignores the poor’s responsibility as citizens to get an education, get a marketable skill, be a good citizen, keep away from crime and drugs, etc. There are values and behaviors that allow you to flourish in our society and those that condemn you to failure. The lower classes openly and proudly reject the good and embrace the bad. The libs answer to this is to get society to embrace the bad so it is not held against the poor. That can never work. A society can tolerate 10% bums and 90% productive, but not 90% bums and 10% productive. That is where we are headed.

Even normal, everyday people say things like “Communism is good in theory” all the time. That kind of idiocy has been drummed into the collective conscience (maybe “collective conscience” is another). What sort of theory can be said to be good when it has failed each and every time at the experimental level? In theory, I could win the NBA Slam Dunk Contest.

There are two nations within our borders. There is The United States of America and there is Democratland. The United States has a Constitution. Democratland has a political party.

” - - - having acquired the ultimate authority, almost the ultimate moral authority over what’s a good idea or what’s not, or what’s valued and what’s not - - - “

This is a revealing partial quote from the 3rd from the last paragraph of your thread article.

Author Marxist Simon ascribes to quote to “Capitalism,” but fails to provide the factual support for his hypothesis.

An objective analysis of what the data shows is that in less that 11 months the US Federal Government can be taken over by militant, Left-Wing Democrats, and a bill turned into Law that Confiscates 1/6 th of the US Economy, namely Obamacare.

Could “Capitalism” have ever done such a thing? There is no known evidence to support that.

Thus, the above quote can only be ascribed to what The US Federal Government is capable of doing.

The above is the reality of the present, active America.
___________

From Republican-Progressive Teddy Roosevelt founding of what later became the US Department of [Socialist] Education in 1912 to Marxist Obama’s re-election in 2012, America has suffered through 100 years of failed Marxist punishment.

Detroit took only 50 years to be reduced to rubble under Marxist Democrat and Labor rule.

How long will we tolerate the Marxist Democrat’s Obamacare as it too reduces America to rubble?

The answer to that question will define the future of the now passive, second America, the America of our Founding Fathers.

Ultimately we abandoned that and believed in the idea of trickle-down and the idea of the market economy and the market knows best, to the point where now libertarianism in my country is actually being taken seriously as an intelligent mode of political thought. It's astonishing to me. But it is.

Ladies and Gentlemen, The Obama Voter. :)

But this won’t be as easily divided as North v. South.

Actually, he has a point, but argues incorrectly.

There ARE two Americas.

One that Works for their living, and the other that VOTES for their living. . .

The irony is that it is true that there is two Americas, but it is the Left that created it. A couple of examples and reasons for the divide. The unions helped in creating the situation by shifting its priority from trade unions to public sector unions. Everything from the AFL-CIO is about increasing the power and wealth of its public sector workers. They are draining the resources needed by the private sector, thus destroying their own members in trade unions.

Feminism has had a hand. Gone are the days of the young lawyer marrying their secretary or the young doctor marrying a nurse. Today, lawyers marry lawyers, doctors marry doctors. Marriage was an institution that allowed class fluidity in the US, not anymore.

Illegal immigration has locked the poor into their condition. It is illogical that millions upon millions of cheap foreign labor has no impact on poverty amongst the native poor. The upper class liberals want the votes and also want to live like feudal lords with their available nannies and gardeners on the cheap.
