Now you see Democrats on every chat site and political blog complimenting and hoping for a true socialist America with the excuse being that many of our major programs such as social security and Medicare are based on socialist policies. So for many of them why no go full tilt on government control of everything to fulfill the ultimate utopian ideal these idiots seek. Say what you want about zealots in the Cruz and Trump camps. Nothing compares to the fruit loop sheep in Bernie’s corner. That mindset they have is far more scarier than anything on our side.
Coming to America: One Vote, One Time.
A big driver here is envy, a/k/a "income inequality." What the lefty useful idiots don't realize is that in EVERY society, wealth follows a power curve distribution. The difference is in what determines who is where.
A capitalist society is roughly (not perfectly) meritocratic. A communist society needs someone to direct it, and the directors--the Party Members and their princelings in China, the apparatchiks of the USSR--do very well. Everyone does not.
As the saying goes, "Under capitalism, the rich become powerful," which sounds pretty bad until you hear the second part: "Under Communism, the powerful become rich."
I think a lot of the lefties understand this a little, but think that since their minds are right due to their beliefs, they would slide into the privileged class in due time. In the meantime, they could feast on stolen goods.
The result will be that we once again ‘compromise’ with the ‘Progressives’ eventually becoming a ‘true socialist America’.
The truth is the majority of the US electorate ARE socialists.
