How quickly people will give up their freedoms today for the illusion of security, and the false hope of prosperity through government control. The point that this cartoon seems to be making, is beware of any individual, organization, or administration that attempts to escalate class, or race warfare to divide the country and make socialism appear to be the only solution. (VIDEO)

Every freedom loving parent should show this video to their children.

It could be my imagination, but doesn’t Dr. Ism look an awful lot like Obama?

THANK YOU, navysealdad for starting this thread.

My husband just received this incredible cartoon from a colleage. It is a MUST SEE for all Americans who love this country, IMO. I assume this cartoon was created in 1948 to warn Americans about the dangers of communism, but it is sure applicable now with the creeping socialism and Marxism that is infesting our country today...

I'll ping my biggest list here momentarily... this needs to go viral ASAP.

This cartoon seemed far-fetched in 1948... it is amazingly appropriate today, 61 years later. It is sad that this cartoon has to make a comeback, as many Americans just haven't learned valuable lessons from our history.

WHO does the snake oil salesman ("Dr. Ism") remind you of? (Take a guess...)

Cartoon runs 9:27 minutes... It is WELL worth your time!

We will always have our differences, but putting the government in charge of everything, and surrendering person freedom is not the solution. This cartoon is timeless and is just as true today as it was in 1948!

Great link, but I wonder why there is a comma following “making”.

Thanks for posting this invaluable reminder to all Americans about how easily we can be manipulated and end up throwing away our freedom for a lie.

What's saddens me is that this 61-year-old cartoon is so relevant today, as America faces it's greatest threat to our freedom from the elected leftist elitists in Washington, D.C. Tragically some have even the 'R' designation after their name.

My hope and prayer is that America wakes up to what's being planned for our people by the Obama administration and their cohorts in congress.
