Political Class and Crony Capitalism: Communism under a Different Name
Canada Free Press ^ | 1/29/2014 | Dr. Ileana Johnson Paugh

Posted on 01/29/2014 7:24:46 AM PST by rktman

I was elated but very suspicious when communism failed suddenly in Eastern Europe in 1989. I suspected that the communist elites had decided to go underground to recoup and gain the trust of the west while attempting to rebuild their ranks.

The communists’ economic system of surplus was such a dismal failure that it was necessary to hide for a while. People were starving literally and figuratively for capitalism, economic freedom, personal freedom, religious freedom, and a better life for their families. They had reached the breaking point where suffering would change into revolt.

The Romanian military finally turned against their handlers and joined the exploited and long-suffering citizens, deposing the brutal and totalitarian regime with its despised dictator Nicolae Ceausescu and his wife Elena.

Thanks Doc. Makes me think of the supporters shouting "Nick O li, Nick O li" in the early days. Kind of like "O Ba Ma, O Ba Ma".

Technically, “crony capitalism” is fascism, not communism.

Think 1930’s Italy, and 21st Century United States.

Compare You-Lie Hussein Obama to Nick-O-Lie Carpathian from the book “Left Behind” - - - - . Chilling!

” - - - Will it end the same? - - - “

Here is your answer:

Although B. Hussein Obama has an aversion to taking credit for his abundant failures, lies, and criminal acts, B. Hussein did a credible job of describing just what his failures were in last night’s State of the Obamanation Failed Union Speech.

B,. Hussein waxed eloquent on his description of how the Keynesian “Prime the Pump” stimulus theory of economics has failed without ever mentioning Keynes, or economic stimulus.

It was a masterful slight of hand speech, worthy of B. Hussein’s reputation as a consummate lying, con-artist, (pardon the redundancy).

Now that Commie Obama has been forced to admit that Communism (Mandatory Universal Federal Medical Insurance Tax, aka Obamacare), Economic Stimulus, Fed-controlled low interest rates, and Constitutional violations have made the last 5 years a living Hell for The Middle Class in America, the question I have is as follows:

“Who in the RINO Wing of the Republican Party has learned NOT to repeat what B. Hussein has proven for 5 years to be failed Federal Government policy?”

What say all of you?

Thank you. The word “fascism” is so misused that it’s almost meaningless these days. It wouldn’t be a big deal except that it’s the system of government that has been adopted by the US.

Material written to agitate isn’t going to use words accurately.

Part of getting’ book learnin’ is gaining the ability to tell the difference, if you know what I mean.

B. Hussein described his failures, but refused to take credit for the, like any, lying, cheap Insurance Tax Hustler would.

Hence, HE said it, denied it, and was proud of it all at the same time.

You republicans have to be aware, old people paid billions of taxes into soc. sec.and worked all their lives to pay all your fed.taxes.So if you don’t get rid of Obamacare,and re-fund Medicare, all senior citizens will desert the republican party.—permanently.I suggest you treat your senior constituents properly,if you want to keep them,we seniors hate the democrats, but we’re not in love with republicans either.You have to dump Obamacare, and give medicare providers back their 700 billion you took out of medicare.Otherwise, you are not any better than democrats.we seniors REFUSE TO FUND OBAMACARE OUT OF OUR POCKETS.or any other national socialist medical program!!WE PAID FOR MEDICARE AND SOC. SEC. ALL OUR LIVES IT BELONGS TO US, NO ONE ELSE.

Great image and text!

It succinctly defines what a true two party system would be like.

Sadly, America has a few Capitalists, a lot of RINOs, and an immense number of Socialists.

Looks like Obamanation Class Envy will be around for a while - - - - .

Essentially, Washington, DC has become the capitol of the fictional country of Panem from The Hunger Games--the people inside the city live "high on the hog," while everyone else suffers.

Odd (not really) that when I read the trilogy and thought about where some in this country would like to see us headed, I also couldn’t help but make the comparison. Areas of “wilderness” forbidden to the “common folks”. Folks collected in to specific areas. Lack of freedom. Spooky. Can’t wait (well I have to ) for the conclusion movie(s). I read someplace that the 3rd one is so involved and the complexity of the battle scenes so technical that it will require it to be made in two parts. I think they’ve done a pretty decent job so far.
