Socialism

Socialism does not work. Period. Let me say that again. Socialism DOES-NOT-WORK! No country in the history of the world has ever successfully implemented socialism. There has never been a time that socialism has worked effectively. The most recent example is in Venezuela. Despite being set atop the most plentiful crude oil deposits in the world, Venezuela is mired in complete and total poverty. The citizens are literally starving to death. These people are so hungry they are breaking into the zoo and eating the animals. Let that sink in for a moment. Socialism does not work.

Given this information, it is shocking that there are American politicians pushing hard for Socialism in this nation. WHY? We live in the most prosperous, incredible society in the history of the world. Capitalism is the basis for this prosperity and it works. There is no disputing this fact. Capitalism works!

In the last Presidential election, Bernie Sanders was leading the Socialism charge. He almost defeated Hillary Clinton for the Democratic presidential nomination. Now there’s a new Socialist sheriff in town. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez is pushing a program called the Green New Deal. This program is so ridiculous that even some democrats are laughing at it. Some of the key points of this program are: Eliminating all air travel. Ummmm… are we going to build railroad bridges across the ocean? Eliminating all fossil fuels and gas powered cars, replacing them with all electric cars. Ummmm… This would never, ever work! Upgrading every single structure in our nation to make it more environmentally friendly. Ummmm… this would be impossible (both logistically and financially). Eliminating all cows because cow farts contain methane gas and that is bad for climate change. Ummmm… yes, the official proposal truly uses the words “cow farts”. Free health care for all. Ummmm… nice thought, but who is going to pay for it? Guaranteed income to individuals who are either unable or unwilling to work. Ummmm… you read that correctly. This plan wants to pay people who DO NOT WANT TO WORK. Ummmm… are you kidding me?

Ladies and gentlemen, this is your democrat party of the 21st century. Does this sound sane to you? I’ll help you. When this proposal first came out, many people (democrats and republicans alike) thought it was a joke. I assure this is not a joke and the democrats are quite serious. The decision is yours, folks. Vote right, or vote left. If you read this post, the choice is obvious. SOCIALISM DOES NOT WORK!
