Socialism Results in Loss of Freedom

HOW TO CATCH WILD PIGS

“There was a Chemistry professor in a large college that had some exchange students in the class. One day while the class was in the lab the Prof noticed one young man (exchange student) who kept rubbing his back and stretching as if his back hurt. The professor asked the young man what was the matter. The student told him he had a bullet lodged in his back. He had been shot while fighting communists in his native country who were trying to overthrow his country’s government and install a new communist government. In the midst of his story he looked at the professor and asked a strange question.

"He asked, ‘Do you know how to catch wild pigs?’ The professor thought it was a joke and asked for the punch line. The young man said this was no joke. ‘You catch wild pigs by finding a suitable place in the woods and putting corn on the ground. The pigs find it and begin to come everyday to eat the free corn. When they are used to coming every day, you put a fence down one side of the place where they are used to coming. When they get used to the fence, they begin to eat the corn again and you put up another side of the fence. They get used to that and start to eat again. You continue until you have all four sides of the fence up with a gate in the last side. The pigs, who are used to the free corn, start to come through the gate to eat, you slam the gate on them and catch the whole herd. Suddenly the wild pigs have lost their freedom. They run around and around inside the fence, but they are caught. Soon they go back to eating the free corn. They are so used to it that they have forgotten how To forage in the woods for themselves, so they accept their captivity.

"The young man then told the professor that is exactly what he sees happening to America. The government keeps pushing us toward Communism/Socialism and keeps spreading the free corn out in the form of programs such as supplemental income, tax credit for unearned income, tobacco subsidies, dairy subsidies, payments not to plant crops (CRP), welfare, medicine, drugs, etc. while we continually lose our freedoms- just a little at a time."

Why socialism is evil

"The bottom line is that we've become a nation of thieves, a value rejected by our founders. James Madison, the father of our Constitution, was horrified when Congress appropriated $15,000 to help French refugees. He said, 'I cannot undertake to lay my finger on that article of the Constitution which granted a right to Congress of expending, on objects of benevolence, the money of their constituents.' Tragically, today's Americans would run Madison out of town on a rail."

TWO STEPS FORWARD, ONE STEP BACKWARD

A caller to the Glenn Beck show told about an elderly woman receiving a phone call in South Bend, Indiana telling her she was allowed to cast her vote by phone. “For whom was she voting,” she was asked? She replied “John McCain” The caller thanked her and said, “Your vote has been cast. You do not have to go to the polls.”

"A military man and a Florida resident said he was cleaning his gun with the Bible at his side as he waited for Glenn to take his call. He said number 8 on the instruction sheet for his absentee voting says 'It is a felony under Florida law to accept any gift, payment or gratuity in exchange for your vote for a candidate.' He said he heard vouchers were being given out for a Jimmy Buffet concert if they voted for Obama. All they had to do was pick it up at the Obama campaign booth.

"The fact that millions of voters will be voting for a virtual unknown mystery man that came out of nowhere, gave a great speech at the Democrat convention four years ago and soon declared he was running for the presidency is frightening indeed. Once again, the Bible says in the end times God will send a spirit of delusion and it seems the highly educated who have sat in college under communist sympathetic professors and the brainwashed children that have been forced to attend public schools for their indoctrination will be the deceived in this election. In my last article I mentioned the 1919 Communist slogan, 'Give us one generation…'

"Two steps forward, one step backward has long been the mantra of the Communist Party. Whether we call it gradualism, incrementalism, encroachment, licenses, regulations or other creeping crud, we must ask is this truly the end of America as some have suggested or is it simply an extension of what has been going on since the election of Democrat FDR in 1932? For years I expressed wonderment, “How could the German people have been so stupid as to put Adolph Hitler in charge of their nation?” He came to power in a 'national emergency' – the burning of the Reichstag, the parliament building in the center of Berlin, on February 27, 1933. 'Nazi' was gutter slang for the verb “to nationalize” and what did our elected traitors recently do with our banks? Under the guise of helping out foreclosed homeowners, they nationalized the banks."

Learning history's lesson the hard way

"History is filled with the dismal lessons of nations where law was turned into molding clay and citizens abdicated personal responsibility for their lives to messianic-sounding demagogues. But when we stop reading, thinking and taking seriously the eternal truths of tradition, the only thing left is to re-learn through experience what history has already taught.

"Apparently, this is where much of America stands today."

MR. OBAMA: PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY, PERSONAL ACCOUNTABILITY

"Marx created socialism--communism, which proved one of the most dangerous and ominous economic tragedies of all time. Socialism works against human nature. It demands those who work share with those who don’t work. From our experiences in the past 100 years, it only works out of the barrel of a gun. As long as you hold the gun, you may enforce the tenets of communism! Finally, it espouses a classless society. From all the countries I visited during my world travels, places like dictatorship-driven China manifest Marx’s ideas at their worst."

and

"As a teacher, I found myself ‘encouraged’ by administrators to pass kids no matter their failing work in class. Soon, those kids discovered that ‘affirmative action grading’ allowed them to pass to the next grade by doing nothing. Once they ‘graduated’ from high school functionally illiterate with an ‘affirmative action’ diploma—they enjoyed jobs where they didn’t do much more than answer a phone, security guard or hold a DOT flag. Our government, made up of men like Obama, dumbed down America’s educational systems that now employ millions in indolent governmental jobs—that accomplish nothing more than not much at all."

and

“Once in the restaurant my server wore an "Obama 08" tie, again I laughed as he had given away his political preference--just imagine the coincidence.

“When the bill came I decided not to tip the server and explained to him that I was exploring the Obama redistribution of wealth concept. He stood there in disbelief while I told him that I was going to redistribute his tip to someone who I deemed more in need--the homeless guy outside. The server angrily stormed from my sight.

“I went outside, gave the homeless guy $5 and told him to thank the server inside as I've decided he could use the money more. The homeless guy was grateful.

“At the end of my rather unscientific redistribution experiment I realized the homeless guy was grateful for the money he did not earn, but the waiter was pretty angry that I gave away the money he did earn even though the actual recipient needed money more.

“I guess redistribution of wealth is an easier thing to swallow in concept than in practical application.”

Could Barack Obama be a Fabian Socialist?

"Instead, Fabians would speak of benefits for the people such as Welfare, Medical Care, Higher Wages, and Better Working Conditions. In this way, they planned to accomplish their objective without bloodshed and even without serious opposition.

"Does any of this sound familiar so far?"

and

"By contrast, when Social Engineers gain control of government and restrict people from being rewarded by the fruits of their labor, productivity falls, and scarcity becomes the norm."

Biden Lets It All Hang Out

"I thought they were espousing Hope and Change and here they are doing what a good socialist does in order to win...lie, cheat and steal."

Will Obama Supporters Spread the Wealth?


Rev. Wayne Perryman
October 25, 2008 www.wayneperryman.com
One of Obama’s primary campaign themes is to give tax relief to the middle class while taxing the rich so that we can spread the wealth. This is a very noble endeavor and similar to a work that I started as a teenager to feed the poor during the holiday season. Since millions of Obama followers share his concern for the less fortunate and middle class, I suggest the following:
Before we turn this concept into law, let the Obama supporters voluntarily put this concept into practice. I would recommend that all millionaire entertainers, athletes, business owners, and liberal millionaires in Congress who supports Obama’s share the wealth concept start by giving away at least 80% of their wealth to those in the inner-city, in the Appalachian region, and the poor in the rural areas of the South. In addition to using this money to build free medical clinics, new homes and new businesses in those communities, I will assist by getting a list of the poor from churches in these communities so we can distribute some of this money directly to poor families.
For all the churches that are supporting “the share the wealth” concept, as a minister of the gospel I will help each church establish a fund where 50% of the church’s total income will go to the poor in their communities. And if there are any poor that remains after this voluntary effort from our liberal millionaires and churches, we will tax the remaining rich who refuses to give voluntarily. To those that believe in Obama and his share the wealth concept - they will have no problem donating their wealth for this most worthy cause.
Obama should also start a matching gift fund to share the wealth. He should require that everyone who attended one of his $5,000 a plate fund raising dinners or his $20,000 per person events, must donate that same amount to a fund to help the poor and middle class. He has a list of all those donors, so we should have no problem tracking who they were.
Regarding the Other Countries that Support Obama
Obama should require that every country that support his candidacy, show their support by returning the Foreign Aid that American taxpayers have paid to them during the past 50 years, so that we can strengthen America through Obama’s sharing the wealth program. We know these countries love Obama and that they have our best interest in mind and will jump at the opportunity to be part of his share the wealth program. He should ask them to also remove any tariffs on our imported products and that they no longer accept jobs that American companies have shipped overseas so our people will have more jobs. Additionally, as part of the share the wealth program we ask each country that benefited from the wars that we fought on their behalf, to pay America $5,000 for every American soldier that gave their lives to secure and protect their country. The money will be used to share the wealth in America. I know that the Obama millionaires and the foreign citizens of other countries that support his candidacy will line up to participate in this wonderful worthwhile program.

Have you noticed that Warren Buffet, George Soros or the fact that none of the millionaire Obama supporters who believe in speading the wealth, have returned the tax cut checks that Bush sent out nor have anyone seen them visiting and voluntarily giving their wealth to the inner-cities across America or to the poor in the rural south areas or those in the Appalachain region.

Venezuela's Chavez wants to jail rival

"Human rights groups say Chavez has increasingly exerted control over branches of power such as the judiciary and become intolerant of critics in almost a decade in power."

Universities of socialism

"The great English writer George Orwell, who penned the book, 'Animal Farm,' and '1984' – forgotten anti-totalitarian classics that mocked the progressive intellectuals, social engineers and secular academics of the 1920s–50s that gleefully followed the siren song of Darwin, Marx, Freud, Lenin, Mussolini, Stalin, Hitler, Mao and the myriad varieties of what Jonah Goldberg referred to as 'liberal fascism' – said it best: 'In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.'"

Welfare Payments Can Be Given to Employees

Obama Advisor Changes the Definition of “Welfare”: Free Money Handouts Are No Longer Enough
Welfare Payments Can Be Given to Employees

WASHINGTON, DC— Supporters of Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) are sometimes accused of megalomaniacal messianism when it comes to their policy objectives. Yesterday, though, chief Obama economic advisor Austan Goolsbee went too far when he attempted to alter the English language itself:

"Our thing has never been welfare," said Goolsbee. "It was always our intention that there was a work requirement."

Goolsbee correctly noted that Obama's other refundable tax credits were clearly tied to work. An individual must work in order to qualify for Obama's making-work-pay credit, an individual must have earnings from a job in order to benefit from Obama's saver's credit, parents must work in order to benefit from Obama's refundable child care tax credit, and college students must perform community service in order to benefit from Obama's college tax credit.

October 21, 2008, ABC News, “Political Radar” blog

Actually, recipients of free money from the government can have a job, be unemployed, etc. It makes no difference. “Welfare” means the government gives you a check paid for by stealing it from someone else.

Here’s the point: if the Obama camp redefines “welfare” to exclude anyone who has a job or does “community service,” the handouts will never end. It’s like saying you’re not going to eat sweets except at breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It’s absurd. It makes the term meaningless.

A New Welfare State

"When called on this, Obama's answer is that those 38 percent still pay payroll taxes, so he's rebating part of those payments. But that actually puts him deeper into the socialist hole. Here's why."

Obamanomics Abhors the Free Market

"For Obama Kool-Aid guzzlers who believe Joe the Plumber was a premeditated Republican plant to trap Obama into admitting his communist inclinations (even though Obama approached Joe, not the other way around), I refer you to Obama's history of similar utterances in favor of soaking the rich."

Blindly we go -- down the path of socialism

"As a result of his question, Wurzelbacher has been smeared, investigated, scrutinized, and disparaged by the Obama campaign and the left. Joe says this is dangerous when we can't even ask a question of our elected officials. I too have a question for Obama: Where is all that $600 million in campaign money coming from? Obama won't disclose it, and I suspect for good reason. There is just no way that that amount of money can all be from legal donations. Not even half."

America will weep

"The specter of an Obama administration is foreboding. He is an odious person who wants to throw our country into Socialism. He is not apologetic for the truths he has hidden from us. Obama brings with him far left cronies and policies and seeks to usher in a new era of history hardly befitting an American president no matter what his race, creed or color."

Newspaper shows Obama belonged to socialist party

"Evidence has emerged that Sen. Barack Obama belonged to a socialist political party that sought to elect members to public office with the aim of moving the Democratic Party far leftward to ultimately form a new political party with a socialist agenda."

Neo-Socialism: A Decomposition of the Liberal Mind

"Fundamentally, Socialism is the complete discarding of the institution of private property by transforming it to public property. The resulting public income is to be, then, equally and indiscriminately distributed to the population (Liberals strive toward this end through the levying of taxes and tight governmental controls). In Socialism, private property is anathema to this objective."

So you want to be a communist

"If you agree that this is suicide for Europe, then please note that a vote for Barack Obama is a vote for the suicide of America.

"Once the socialists take power, they do not relinquish it. They soon control the media, the education system and even the church. They control your mind. You can vote them in under a free democratic system.

"But you can never vote them out. And never is a long, long time for you and your children's children to live without freedom."
