Socialism/Marxism already taking hold
Some quick links…
“We’ve been guided by a Republican administration who believes in this simplistic notion that people that have wealth are entitled to keep it” -Jim Moran (see video)
Fairness doctrine: Schumer compares political speech to pornography
If you think its over-reacting to say socialism is taking over the country, think again. Jim Moran won 70% of the vote in his district. People obviously agree with his sentiments, which are DEAD WRONG. His policy one private wealth is unalduterated THEFT. This is not a republican/democrat debate. It is Marxism, plain and simple.
As for Schumer, he equates political speech to pornography. He would have you believe that political bias is the same as inappropriate sexual content. Absurd partisan nonsense.
The United States is already socialist in many respects. Bill Gates pays more in taxes per year than I do. Why? Does he get more benefits from the government than I do? Not one cent. He uses roads, has access to the fire department and police, same as I do, yet he pays magnitudes more money than I do. He probably sends 50% or so of his money to the government every year. I send closer to 25%.
Even if we bumped his rate back to 25%, it would still be unfair. He’s still paying a ton more taxes than me. Why does he have to pay a percentage of his income, which is higher than mine, when we receive exactly the same services from the government? It’s to redistribute wealth. Socialism/Marxism is already alive and well in America. You’ve just all accepted the status quo. If you do, fine, but dont call what we have capitalism.
Karl Marx’s Communist Manifesto: “In the most advanced countries the following will be pretty generally applicable:..a heavy progressive or graduated income tax.”
