What is left for the left?

Posted on 07/04/2012 10:06:26 AM PDT by A'elian' nation

What is left for the left to still steal from our wallets? They have social security, medicare and medicaid, the disability act, prescription drugs, public education, the environment, and now mandatory health care for all.

What will they be reaching for next: mandatory dental care, an extra vacation if you get sick, the Dream Act ?

I'm not talking about whittling away at our Bill of Rights or having to buy electric cars and banishing salt and sugar. That they will continue to do. But what will be the next great federal program on their agenda that we will be taxed for or have to subsidize ?

Here is my list for liberals, and I know I'm not giving them any ideas they don't already have:

1) Free higher education.

2) Eminent domain and taking away property rights is another prime socialist goal. Obamatax already taxes the sale of homes.

3) A Living Wage, whatever that is. Since giving away free houses didn't work, let's give them enough money to buy or qualify for a house.

4) The Infrastructure - high speed rails and taxing every mile you drive.

5) The Dream Act and abolishing the word 'illegal' from Merriam Webster.

I'm sure there are more; it just hurts my head to try and think the way Pelosi does every day. Just curious what the good Freepers here think. Bless you all and try to make the best of the saddest 4th of July I've ever experienced.

And since this is a vanity, I want to give the Romney team a suggestion. The best way to fight Obamacare is to bring victims of government health care to the fore. Have an Indian from the reservations tell his story, or a vet in a veteran hospital, or a mom who couldn't get a vaccine shot for her kids because the government hadn't bought enough vaccines.

The libs always bring out their victims. You can't use logic with these people. You got to get to them emotionally.

Taxing every mile you drive is next on their agenda. They have already begun to implement this plan. Mandatory GPS and data recorders in new vehicles is the mechanism that will make it possible. It’s the reason they want these devices in every vehicle.

In no paticular order...
1. Our own Stasi.
2. A suffocating dictatorship that determines every aspect of your life for you from cradle to grave — including whether you should be born at all.
3. A fulfilling life as a prole.

Mandatory life insurance to go along with Obama Care death panels.

That's a good list which will keep the liberals busy for a while. If Obama wins another term and still controls the Senate I predict he will act on all these fronts. There is no end in sight for this madness. They will push for “free” everything - housing, medical, mass transportation, etc - for those under a certain income level coupled with higher taxes. This will drag down the economy and prod everyone towards soviet bloc style lifestyles. We'll all be drinking vodka to get through it.

“Direct Democracy” is the next and last hurdle for the left.
Eliminate the Electoral College and have web-based elections.
Most votes wins.

This would allow for complete revision/destruction and replacement of the US Constitution. Allow for a true “Tyranny of the Plurality”, with several front groups splitting opposition votes to consolidate power with the fringe Leftists.

Already, essentially, in place in some states.

The end game is world population reduction to a number that is earth friendly and manageable. That number is half a billion.

We’re in the process of figuring out the means of that reduction, who will be part of the half billion, and who will run the show once we reach that number.

The God of Israel has other plans.

This is easy. Payed Family leave, more gun control, mandatory insurance for gun owners to help fund liability and injured people from gun “volence”, .gov control of private retirement funds, “FREE” College education, “Free” child care for all, mandatory payed 4 week vacation etc. They are NOT done yet.

They want your wallets and your stash, for sure. However, this still won’t be enough. They want you prostrate before them and begging for mercy for your racist past(both now and historically via your forebearers). They will exact reparations, fielty, punishment, retribution and enslavement.

If you survive all of this, they will not be satisfied until your mind has been set right (or left, in their view).

That is what they are about.

If there’s anything left now that the left doesn’t have, believe me, the implementation of Obamacare will take care of that, it’s game, set, match.

If OsamaObamaCare isn’t repealed then what’s left for the left is the very power of life and death over all those who aren’t obscenely wealthy,powerful or “connected”.What’s left for them is the knowledge that for most people to get life saving care they’ll need to “know” a politician.And we all know what *that* means.

How about a tax on the non consumption of alcohol or tobacco, so they can get you if you do or if you don’t

I suspect libs will FINALLY come up with this plan to SOLVE hungar AND unemployment at the same time: Establish in EVERY community across this land millions of rice paddies. Anybody who needs a job can work in these public paddies. Anybody that needs food can eat the rice. Two birds, one stone, what could possibly go wrong??

There is no measure of total satisfaction for leftists until they gain total control over everybody’s lives. The glass is always half-empty. There is always a new “crisis,” a new class of victims of the evil, capitalist system, a new cause around every bend.

Mandatory work / re training camps for Conservatives, In Alaska or 29 Palms.

The END of Churches and forced revocation of God

The removal of all barriers to do what ever they want to do the minute they feel inspired to do it.

Why that sounds just like Soviet Russia 1969, The inspiration for the AmeriKan Communist.

The short version: anything that expands the government. They want more power, more money, more control. These are the antithesis of the values upon which America was founded. We have fought to preserve these freedoms and liberties before, more than once. We are going to have to fight again, and again, and again to maintain them.

They want your bank account. And they will have both when full obamacare kicks in. If you don’t have insurance they’ll look at your bank account to determine not how much money you earn. But how much money you GOT.

And of course, they want your 401k. It’s not fair that you one and the less fortunate don’t.

Well they have one point:

We have been settling things which were once made in America, as made in China.

Certainly no good can come of that.

Bring those jobs HOME.

All of them.

The confiscation of all private firearms. They can’t do everything they want as long as some people still have firearms. Unfortunately, there are government employees who will turn their weapons on American citizens. The Democrats don’t have any problems with guns as long as they get to decide who the guns are pointed at.

How about no private ownership of homes? After all, owning a home makes those who don’t feel badly. If the government owns it all, it can place(segregate) those who believe in free markets away from the rest of the governments slaves.

“Eliminate the Electoral College and have web-based elections.”

Yeah - forgot that one - the liberal power of franchisement. That is truly frightening. And with open borders WASPS will be wearing the shackles.

There are only two roads - liberty or egalitarianism. We are the only ones left on the former.

The ultimate leftist agenda is to destroy all wealth - except for the commissars.

Fortunately for us, the left failed to accomplish the most single important item on their agendum; grab the guns.

They tried in 1934 with the NFA which, in the original language, treated hand guns the same as machine guns. They tried in 1968 with the GCA and they tried again in 1994 with the Federal AWB. It looks like Holder was attempting a last minute Hail Mary play with Fast and Furious and the UN Arms Trade Treaty. But it's too late now, that horse has left the barn and tide has turned against gun banning. Consequently they are ultimately doomed to fail.

There are a lot of freepers out there on social security and you are lumping them in with the left? My, you must be rich and not live off social security. You see I paid hundreds of dollars into the system of social security, and along with saving money in investments to subsidize my retirement..be careful how you use the word “social security” in a negative way...I earned mine, and I am not ashamed of it, I paid into it, just like may other people that paid into social security.
I am sorry that your little bitty taxes that you pay to the govmnt is eating away at your fortune.

Hope you had fun with your rant. The point is not whether one is entitled to social security. The point is how these cradle to grave programs originated. And you can’t deny that Social Security was begun by the FDR progressives.

Of course you are entitled to what you paid into. What you are not entitled to do is take personal cheap shots when you don’t even understand the point of the post. Enjoy your social security while you can.
