Police states come in a variety of flavors. History never repeats itself in exact detail. The Soviet police state was different from the Chinese which was different from the Nazis which was different from that of the Prussians. The American police state, too, has its unique qualities. That fact doesn't alter in the least the reality we confront here.

Socialism is a catholic religion.

Socialism is a 'big-tent' political movement; only concious libertarians remain outside it today.

'Socialism with American characteristics' may be the shape of things to come the world over.

Wave that flag, comrades! America--making Socialism work!

Get out the Reynolds Wrap. Dictatorship as defined by Ayn Rand in 1964 and interpreted in 2002 as a Police State by a lunatic. For what little truth there is in his rantings, we've heard before. And better written.
