"When an opponent declares, 'I will not come over to your side.'
I calmly say, 'Your child belongs to us already…
What are you? You will pass on. Your descendants, however, now stand in the new camp.
In a short time they will know nothing else but this new community.'"(Emphasis mine)
Adolf Hitler
Socialism can't march if we break it's legs.
“The establishment of an American Soviet government will involve the confiscation of large landed estates in town and country, and also, the whole body of forests, mineral deposits, lakes, rivers and so on.” - William Z. Foster, National Chairman of the Communist Party, restating point one of the Communist Manifesto in 1932, “The abolition of private property.”

A generation of Americans was never taught why socialism must not succeed in America. Instead, they were taught that the environment must be protected by government, without learning why government must never be allowed to confiscate private property or manipulate free markets. Consequently, private property is being transferred into government ownership or control at an unprecedented rate. Government is meddling in the administration of free markets to a degree that distorts the markets and restrains economic development.Guys, It is VERY important that people with children of school age and college know what THEIR children are being taught in the collective's schools. What passes for education today is stone cold EVIL!!!. Peace and love, George.
Neither socialism nor communism can succeed as a system of governance; three fundamental faults doom any long-term success. First, no collection of policy-making individuals can muster the wisdom of leadership required to satisfy a diverse population. Second, enforcement of collectivist policies requires government to take from the producers and redistribute to the non-producers. Third, producers become non-producers when they realize the rewards for their efforts are redistributed to others. Ultimately, the system collapses under its own weight, as it did in the Soviet Union.

They are the Enemy Within!!!!
The level of economic ignorance in this country is truly astounding. Take government schools - if the government was capable of running a school system than it should be able to run grocery stores. Ask people if they think the government should grocery stores and they will say no. Ask them if the government should run public schools and they will say yes. Ask them to explain why the laws of economics mutate depending on the type of good or service that is being delivered and they will stare at you incomprehensibly.
The same thing applies to health care.
They are making Brown Shirts again but most people today don't know enough history to understand what a Brown Shirt is.
Thou shalt not steal.
It is the epitome of incivility to use force or intimidation to make someone give up what he peacefully obtained. Any child can understand this, and it is a concrete that no highly abstract marxist argument can defeat.
However, we must face the fact that one cannot justify taxation without leaving open the door for socialism. Both violate the same tenet of civil interactions. Unless we are willing to be continually vigilant in finding ways to eliminate taxes--realizing that any tax-supported spending is for a value superior to basic civility--socialism will always be nipping at our heels.
And sadly, what should be our greatest strength has become the weakest link, thanks to democRAT vote fraud, illegals and felons being allowed to vote, the dead vote and the fact that the democRATs will fight for the "right" of all those who are stupid enough and dependent enough on government handouts to promote their socialist agenda.
I live in King County.
We've been fighting a land-grab by homeless advocates who are trying to put tent encampments on public land in nice, low-crime eastside neighborhoods - and I can tell you that there are at least a couple of Democrats on the King County Council who have breathtaking disdain for ordinary, taxpaying, law-abiding folks - it's actually frightening to me.
