Capitalism, with all its warts and pimples, is the way people organize themselves of their own volition. It is economic freedom. Socialism and its children – communism and fascism -- can only be foisted on a population through tyrannical coercion and brute force. Dean Koontz, in Icebound, summed up communism, writing,
This was senseless, pointless lunacy…but nothing the communists had ever done made sense, not anywhere in the world.…Their ideology was nothing but a mad hunger for unrestrained power, politics as a cult religion divorced from morality and reason and their bloody rampages and bottomless cruelty could never be analyzed or understood by anyone not of their mad persuasion.
We’re not there yet but, as our friends from Venezuela have tried to warn us, we’re well on our way and following closely in their footsteps. We’re now immersed in “senseless, pointless, lunacy,” while our politicians dabble in “a mad hunger for unrestrained power.”
America’s southern border is open. According to the US Customs and Border Patrol, close to 190,000 people crossed into the United States in June alone, and that number has been accelerating in the six months since the Biden administration reversed all the Trump-era policies and refused to enforce existing immigration law.
At this rate, it’s not inconceivable that we’ll have absorbed another 30 million illegal immigrants, or about 10 percent of the current U.S. population if Joe Biden serves two terms. That is an invasion. The US military should be lined up virtually shoulder to shoulder along the entire length of the southern border.

Fake President MyButtsBeenWiped belongs in Prison
PERIOD!!!
We’re on a road to nowhere
Come on inside
Taking that ride to nowhere
We’ll take that ride
I’m feeling okay this morning
And you know
We’re on the road to paradise
Here we go, here we go
It may not be the road to classic forms of socialism or Communism, which have been around in some form since the French Revolution, and maybe even before, but some kind of command-and-control regime is definitely on the horizon
These command-and-control schemes have been around since the dawn of civilization, when those in positions of power glommed onto the idea that they could keep power in perpetuity, through their children or an elite class groomed for that purpose. Only an accident of circumstances even permitted the formation of a limited and responsive governing body, subject to the collective will of those who were directly affected by that government, through exercise of the right of choosing who shall be their leaders (not masters).
Only, there is a flaw in this plan, for once the citizens have chosen a master rather than a leader dedicated to serving the collective will, then the whole system vanishes. There we are, back at the old command-and-control system, swiftly sinking into a new Dark Age.
Robespierre’s Utopia circled back to feudalism.
American Stinker should STFU! They were the first to beg Trump to admit defeat!
Yeah
This one has horrific technology behind it. Even the population's acceptance of the jab seems like a psyop designed to usher in acceptance of future jabs of a more trans humanist nature. The author gets bonus points for referencing Dean Koontz, the anti-Stephen King, and one of the good guys.
We are IN the thick of it.
There are a few enclaves scattered about, but "they" have some hundreds of patriots locked away in a gulag that our own politicians can't visit.
The Capitol is still fenced in.All the dems are quietly hiding and cannoodling , and we sit fuming at our own inactivity
Biden’s Six Months In Office Have Us On The Road To Communism..
More likely, STUPIDISM.
Venezuela was the laboratory. Chavez packed the courts early in his term. Now that the democrats and the gop want 77 more federal judges, watch for an expansion of the SCOTUS.
Free everything through the MMT is going to be permanent as is renting is home for nothing.
Businesses were nationalized down to the smallest shopkeeper. While I do not think the left will try that here, they will continue to load onerous problems on them to run them out.
The road started in the 1960’s. This is the end of that road.
On the road to communism? Look around buddy, we’ve arrived.
In America today:
1) You will be fired from most jobs for expressing a Christian worldview
2) All media is censored against anti-government narratives
3) No one can start or run a business without dozens of government approvals
The road started in the 1910s, other than that I agree with you.
Eugene V. Debs, Norman Thomas, FDR...Democratic socialism has been around a long time in America.
“Biden’s Six Months In Office Have Us On The Road To Communism’
Wheeeee! Let the executions begin.
Why you should NEVER trust a democrat.
The Road To Communism
Yeah. The editor groveled at the feet of Dominion when they threw their lawsuits at everyone. AT doesn’t have the same money to fight as the democrat front group money backing Dominion’s lawsuits.
David Horowitz's books are also very educational and helpful - especially because Horowitz - now a conservative - is a "red diaper" baby and a former member of the New Left in the sixties.
That’s really the difference! Conservatives throw their money at politicians, leftists use their money to retain lawyers!
