Turning Point
I have to agree with the media and the Obama supporters about Obama’s election and re-election being historic, however, I do not agree with the reasons they give.
Older people have been telling me that Democrats will come and go, and the country still carries on without the world ending. While I do agree that the country may persist a while longer in some form, I do not agree that this is just another victory for the Democrats that we will recover from later. The USSR lived by the methodology of taking two steps forward and one step back. Communists in other parts of the world live by this as well. With each turn the Democrats have in power they push for something, and maybe they only get half of it but over time it all adds up, resulting in fundamental change.
Never before have I seen so much class warfare as I did in this last election. It is as though the country has undergone a moral inversion, where sloth and irresponsibility are touted as virtues, and hard work and success are condemned as vices. It is entirely antithetical to the philosophical basis on which this country was founded. While I realize that there are many who openly disagree with the foundational basis for this country, it is important to remember that the success we have is because of that, and the further we get away from that basis the more rocky things will become. And indeed things have become more rocky.
While I am not entirely convinced that this election was not rigged, one thing remains certain, Obamacare is here to stay, and the values that made this country prosperous are going out the door. Now there is no way to get rid of Obamacare, and Obama will certainly replace any Supreme Court Justices who retire with more liberals. Too many people have turned their backs on freedom, thinking that freedom is free, and taking freedom for granted. It’s not, and now the drones are here to stay, as is government regulation of our medical care, and the numbers of people dependent upon the government will only grow from now on.
Freedom is the most important thing you can have in this world. Yes freedom entails some risks. If you make bad decisions you may experience failure, and if you don’t have a strong family to support you then you may have to experience some hardships, but the opportunities of freedom by far outweight the risks. What you earn is yours, what you buy is yours, and you have the ability to freely dissent from anyone and everyone on any topic you wish. You cannot go to jail for speaking your mind, you are free to criticize politicians, religions, ideologies, and anything you want. You have the ability to choose what sort of medical coverage you want, even opting to have none if you wish, and what you can eat. You have privacy, and you do not have to live in a Big Brother/suveillance state. These days are gone now. If anyone is curious about where we are headed they need only look to England.
That last election was a pivot point, and there is no way to turn things back now.
This video pretty much sums up what many of us are thinking now:

The Western European countries chose rule by the bureaucratic state over 70 years ago.
All of their greatness was bled away because of the exorbitant cost of such government.
They seemed to flourish because they had access to the huge ocean of capital produced by the then capitalist United States.
As all the wealth of the now socialist United States bleeds away in the years to come it will be interesting to see what happens.
The huge debt amassed by President Obama and the Democrats since 2007 has absorbed all the available capital that was once available to Europe.
They are now collapsing.
And as you so aptly noted, the Soviet Empire, unable to access Western capital markets, collapsed over 20 years ago.
@PrisonerxOfxLove - Agreed. Although my reference to the Soviets was to show how communists rely on cumulative gains. They set a huge goal, and they only get half of it or part of it, but at the end of the day they have still moved forward, and over time it all adds up. Each time the Dems are in charge they do some damage, and over time it all adds up, pushing us closer and closer to communism incrimentally.
@Ambrosius_Augustus_Rex - Wealth creation in socialist economies is nearly impossible.
And the Soviet economic goals became a running joke from the get-go.
That’s because socialist economies must, by their very nature, collapse.
The so-called advancement in socialist economies is caused by the government bleeding out what wealth already exists in the economy.
After that wealth has been bled out, the economy collapses.
@PrisonerxOfxLove - I agree, that is one of the reasons why I don’t believe that any of the Dems are truly altruistic. I tend to associate them with the Party in 1984, who basically only care about having power for the sake of power, and once they have brought about their socialist crapheap economy they themselves will still be living in comfort while the rest of us live in squalor.
@Ambrosius_Augustus_Rex - Socialism is the pure will to power by the Ruling Class. They can take total control of society through regulations administrated by the huge all-powerful government bureaucracy while at the same time providing elections for the people so they can feel involved.
@PrisonerxOfxLove - Yep. I also tend to see it as a revival of feudalism.
kudos!
shame on the sheeple!

@aliciabanks - Agreed. Haven’t read everything you wrote there but I read the first 4 subsets. A lot of what Obama does is cronyism, rewarding his wealthy backers with tax breaks and Federal bailouts while soaking other wealthy people and businesses with high taxes. I think that 90% of what he does is to destroy America, and the other 10% is just him power tripping.
ditto
and each day/new deed proves that hobama’s destruction is indeed deliberate
tragic that his most fleeced racist nazi sheeple cannot see their very own annihilation beyond his blackish skin

@aliciabanks - What the liberals have done with Obama was very well planned. They wanted to push an uber liberal agenda “fundamentally change America” and to muzzle the backlash they picked a guy who was part black so that they could tie any criticism of him with racism. Of course logically there is no default link between criticism of policy and character and the man’s race, but the average person, especially the majority of white people, have been so brow beaten that they no longer realize this, or if they do then they are still afraid to speak out.
ditto
