Question:
Now that democrats have their democracy, where will it lead us?
2013-01-25 07:05:51 UTC
-2/4/10 Gallup poll: 61% of liberals have a positive view of socialism.

-6/2/11 Gallup poll: 71% of democrats favor re-distributing wealth.

-9/6-9/2012 http://www.gallup.com/poll/157481/majori… Those who want more government control over us: Republicans 15%; Independents, 29%; Democrats 67%.

-Now they have national health care, the foundation of all welfare and socialist states.

We are not longer a Republic, just as Ben Franklin predicted: "When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic."

We’re now a democracy.

Thomas Jefferson: "A democracy is nothing more than mob rule, where fifty-one percent of the people may take away the rights of the other forty-nine.”

Ben Franklin: "Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch.”

John Adams on democracy: “That the desires of the majority of the people are often for injustice and inhumanity against the minority, is demonstrated by every page of the history of the world.”

Karl Marx: Democracy is the road to socialism.

8/20/1933 New York Times, Berlin: “Eighty-nine and nine-tenths per cent of the German voters endorsed in yesterday's plebiscite Chancellor Hitler's assumption of greater power than has been possessed by any other ruler in modern times.”

Ineptocracy (in-ep-toc'-ra-cy)

Another name for Obamaism.



A system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.

Strawman.



"We of the United States, you know, are constitutionally and conscientiously democrats."

-- Thomas Jefferson; from letter to P. S. Dupont de Nemours (April 24, 1816)



"I see two diametrically opposed principles: the principle of democracy which, wherever it is allowed practical effect is the principle of destruction: and the principle of the authority of personality which I would call the principle of achievement"

--Adolf Hitler; from speech to Dusseldorf, Industry Club (Jan. 27, 1932)



and regarding redistribution:



"legislators cannot invent too many devices for subdividing property, only taking care to let their subdivisions go hand in hand with the natural affections of the human mind. The descent of property of every kind therefore to all the children, or to all the brothers and sisters, or other relations in equal degree is a politic measure, and a practicable one. Another means of silently lessening the inequality of property is to exempt all from taxation below a certain point, and to tax the higher portions of property in geometrical progression as they rise."

-- Thomas Jefferson; Letter to James Madison, (Oct. 28, 1785)



compare to:



"We have founded a system based on the most sincere foundation there is, namely: Form your life yourself! Work for your existence! Help yourself and God will help you!"

-- Adolf Hitler; from speech in Wilhelmshaven (Apr. 1, 1939)





Democracy is what real Americans believe in. The opposite has long been discredited.

The Obama Regime has its socialized plan that will go into effect transforming America from oil to green energy, from free market to a government controlled one which includes health care. Companies will be taxed to the point where staying in business will no longer be an option. They will fall like dominoes giving in the the inevitable bankruptcy. When a billion dollar corporation closes its doors all or most of the small private vendors will be effected likewise. Obama will call upon Congress to raise taxes once again even if he knows the vicious cycle will worsen. We are headed towards collapse of the dollar.

As one answer puts it,it is turning into a dictator run government but they're blaming the wrong party.States like Virginia voting to change rules in favor of GOP to ensure popular votes for electoral votes go their way.

Ignore funding cut for foreign embassy security but try to place the blame on a maybe strong contender presidential candidate in 2016.



Is this a good example of Democracy?

It has already advanced to mob rule. Socialism is a spread of fascism. The moves of Hitler and Stalin are an identical. The moves of socialism are an identical because the moves of fascism, only utilizing diverse propaganda to justify them. So that's going to convey about the point of worry-loose convergence - fasciosocialism.

So the alternative would be having a small ruling elite in charge?

By the way, we don't have national health care, not even close.

I thought Hitler squeaked by by the tiniest of margins in elections and maybe even only had 31 or 34% He had the social democrats arrested (communism already made illegal) so the parliament could give him more power.

They are leading us to a socialist dictatorship.

Just watch, soon the border guards will be there to keep people from escaping, not to keep people from coming here.

The United States has been a Constitutional Democratic Republic for 200 plus years, and you are a danger to our freedom with this Nationalist/fascist anti-American propaganda campaign.
