Welcome to Socialist Amerika: You Will Do As You Are Told

Another May Day just passed. That's the big holiday for Socialists, Communists and fellow travelers where they get together with useful idiots and sing "The Internationale" (of course after substituting "God Protected Land" with "Mother Earth").

This day and it's significance seems to just slid under the radar of most people and you certainly won't read or hear many news stories about it. But it's a day of celebration and triumph for the new socialist left, or as I like to call them: the neoscocialists, or neosocs.

But celebration and triumph you say? Communism as represented by the Soviet Union (which used "The Internationale" as it's national anthem) collapsed sixteen years ago. The former states of the Warsaw Pact are now freed from the onoreus dictatorships which held them captive since the end of World War II.

Well, almost without exception, brutish communism has been replaced by smiling socialism in Eastern Europe, spread also to Western Europe and it's toehold in the United States grows unchecked by even Republican control of government.

Oh come on now Mike, surely that's an overstatment: Socialism in the United States?

Consider the following: Socialism is predicated on the notion that only government can fairly and justly provide for the needs of all it's people. Have we not seen an unchecked growth in the scope, size, power and reach of the federal government of the United States? And since the top 5% of wage earners pay over 50% of the tax bill, there are fewer and fewer people there to complain about the cost and greater numbers to demand more services.

Those "services" include all the tenets of the neosocialist new left's "progressive" plan for Amerika:

• Radical environmental laws and regulations that will determine what kind of car you buy, what kind of house you live in, where and how it can be built and even what kind of washing machine you can put in it. (all these are part of current federal law).
• Ever greater control over the private wealth and private property of citizens. Not only are we talking taxes here, but also the more aggressive use of "eminent domain" where your property can be seized by the state if it determines it can collect more in taxes from some other use of your land.
• Using public education to indoctrinate hapless schoolchildren into the benefits of world socialism and the joy of rabid environmentalism. This also is being done today and paid for with your tax dollars.
• Tying the United States ever closer to the United Nations and allowing the U.N. and other international institutions to shape U.S. policies and laws. This is already happening on the Supreme Court where Justice Breyer insists that the court take the laws of other countries and international bodies into account when deciding who to define U.S. laws.

Central to the continuing institutionalization of socialism into the fabric of American society is the paramount need to neutralize the influence of conservatives, Christians and Republicans, whenever, wherever and however.

We're seeing this play out on a daily basis. Not content to pop out of the woodwork at Christmas and demand removal of Nativity scenes on public property, neosocs now demand that the legitmate electoral influence Christian conservatives, or anyone who fails to adhere to the tenets of leftism be completely excluded from a place at the table in American political life.

We're seeing this play out today in the confirmation battles before the U.S. Senate. If you are a Republican and a conservative it will be difficult enough to win confirmation, just ask John Bolton whose opinions regarding the U.S. role in the United Nations makes him a target for neosoc smear campaigns. And if you are up for a federal judgeship and you dare to be outside the narrow ideological lines drawn by the neosocs, forget it!

The very people who constantly screech about the need for tolerance and diversity will be the very first to discriminate openly against anyone who fails to worship at the altar of socialist utopia. Active campaigns of disinformation and outright hatred are the hardball tactics of this movement.

For more on the war against Christianity look here, and here. I'll bet you anything you didn't hear about this on your nightly newscast).

The neosoc strategy is to play hardball to the ultimate degree, a sort of political brinkmanship. In doing so, they realize that the vast majority of people who pay little attention to these issues are more than willing to split the difference in the hope that we can all just get along. Pulling the discussion in the direction of the far left achieves a tactical victory in the longterm battle for the future of the country.

What Can Be Done

As I've said in previous posts, neosocialists are ingrained in the institutions which control public and political thought in this country. From Hollywood, the news media and government bureaucracy their religion of the left predominates. They will say or do anything to hold that near monopoly and seek to destroy any counter to their power. The electoral numbers that represent these extreme views are a small minority of the American electorate. Yet, the political will required to correct the imbalance is difficult to achieve. Simply demanding that conservative electoral clout should result in greater control over government will bring the slime merchants out from every rock of the political landscape.

But neosocialism and their religion of state control must be stopped and gradually rolled back. A tall order to be sure, but failure to do so means we head further towards a future where the United Nations will decide how Americans live their lives. That future would mean the end of the American experiment and the establishment of an international order which would enslave America to the socialist ideal. Not a pretty picture!
