Never believe a leader who promises utopia.
Renewal and extension of democracy;
What the hell does this double speak mean?
an end to the rule of corporate America and private ownership of the wealth of our nation.
The quickest way for the wealth of our nation to disappear
Creation of a truly humane and rationally planned society that will stimulate the fullest flowering of the human personality, creativity and talent.
The fancier the words, the less they deliver. Here's what socialism (and enviromentalism) will deliver:
A huge class of parasites
No incentive to produce
A government no longer of the people
The end of the united states - this is their real goal
Because it takes totalitarianism to guarantee "utopia."
It means the tyranny of the majority in all aspects of life. "Extension" means that people you don't know or care about will all have an equal say, and veto power, over aspects of your life that should be none of their business. Such as determining what your "needs" really are, or whether the business you wish to start is "needed" or not by the community (to whom all is owed, after all), or whether the house you want to build is "too big", or blocks somebody's view, or threatens land set aside for a mosquito preserve. Nobody will be able to do anything at all without first getting permission from absolutely everybody else. Life in the USA will be one vast eternal committee-meeting.
Some people think that sounds like heaven.
