While I'm not happy with the results of the election, I'm even more upset with the people - post election. The tolerance that this country is known for is MIA (missing in action) and the least tolerant of the citizens appear to reside in the Democratic party, the winning political party. Here's a for instance....
Because of my deep & abiding belief that this country, this "ship of state" being in dire distress, which is bad enough that it may cause the "ship of state" to sink, I've decided to fly our flag with the union down... a clear sign of distress that any military person will recognize. It isn't being done in protest and it is being done with the utmost respect for our country & our flag. This country is in trouble and is in danger. It is in danger from enemies, foreign and domestic. It is in danger of going off a cliff to economic ruin. It is in danger of being torn apart by political ideologues. That is why I'm flying the flag with the union down.
Well, those who disagree, who believe that all is happy and well... that the Democrats in Congress and their Messiah, Barrack Hussein Obama, will lead them to the "Promised Land" of peace & prosperity... of "equality"... to the "Promised Land" of Marx, who stated,
"From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs."Here is Marx's quote in it's entirety...
"In a higher phase of communist society, after the enslaving subordination of the individual to the division of labor, and therewith also the antithesis between mental and physical labor, has vanished; after labor has become not only a means of life but life's prime want; after the productive forces have also increased with the all-around development of the individual, and all the springs of co-operative wealth flow more abundantly -- only then then can the narrow horizon of bourgeois right be crossed in its entirety and society inscribe on its banners: From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs!I have dealt more at length with the "undiminished" proceeds of labor, on the one hand, and with "equal right" and "fair distribution", on the other, in order to show what a crime it is to attempt, on the one hand, to force on our Party again, as dogmas, ideas which in a certain period had some meaning but have now become obsolete verbal rubbish, while again perverting, on the other, the realistic outlook, which it cost so much effort to instill into the Party but which has now taken root in it, by means of ideological nonsense about right and other trash so common among the democrats and French socialists.Quite apart from the analysis so far given, it was in general a mistake to make a fuss about so-called distribution and put the principal stress on it.Any distribution whatever of the means of consumption is only a consequence of the distribution of the conditions of production themselves. The latter distribution, however, is a feature of the mode of production itself. The capitalist mode of production, for example, rests on the fact that the material conditions of production are in the hands of non-workers in the form of property in capital and land, while the masses are only owners of the personal condition of production, of labor power. If the elements of production are so distributed, then the present-day distribution of the means of consumption results automatically. If the material conditions of production are the co-operative property of the workers themselves, then there likewise results a distribution of the means of consumption different from the present one. Vulgar socialism (and from it in turn a section of the democrats) has taken over from the bourgeois economists the consideration and treatment of distribution as independent of the mode of production and hence the presentation of socialism as turning principally on distribution. After the real relation has long been made clear, why retrogress again?" 1
To me, that sure sounds like Obama's "redistribution of wealth"2.
It seems that the citizens of the greatest nation in the world have elected a Marxist to a 2nd term as President. This is something that many of us in this nation suspected. After all, he nationalized several companies in the auto industry. To counter the argument that the nation doesn't own General Motors anymore, it does. As of November 2012, the "American taxpayers still own a 26 percent stake in G.M., the company is finding it tough to change its image as “Government Motors.”" 3
That New York Times article was preceded by an article in the Wall Street Journal dated Sept 19, 2012 which stated, "The government's authority over GM today isn't concentrated in the 500 million shares it still owns, which amount to a hefty but not controlling 26.5% ownership stake..." 4
What other Marxist tendencies does the current fearless leader have? Well, the basic principles of Marxism are:
- materialist interpretation of history: how history is a product of struggles between the social classes such as the rich versus the middle class and the poor
- critique of capitalism: an economic minority (rich) control and manipulate the economic majority (middle class & poor)
- adovcacy of proletarian revolution: to overcome the challenges faced by a working class, they need to start a revolution and gain political power (support of the Occupy movement, the "War on Women", etc.)
Yep... The descriptions fit... We are now living with a Marxist occupying the White House.
Nice going....
