This is nothing but expropriation under a different name

According to Websters dictionary (before it went politically correct), the definition of Communism was :
"When government takes control of private businesses and industries."

The left has exceeded Socialism. They're going even farther than that.

According to the same dictionary, Socialism is:
"The prelude to Communism."

re: Websters...
American College Dictionary of the English Language offers these definitions of ‘communism’:
1. ...social organization based on the holding of all property in common, with actual ownership being ascribed to the state; 2. ...social organization in which all economic activity is conducted by a totalitarian state dominated by a single, self-perpetuating political party.

Looks like 0 is going for a double whammy! Gotta wonder if he got the idea from the dictionary.
