"Mugabe argues land for the poor, but it's a lie," said MDC spokesman Moses Mzila-Ndlovu. "It's about power."

I've seen a sentence to this effect in almost every Zimbabwe story. "He said he was going to give it to the poor, but he's not!" "What started out as a noble effort to give land to Zimbabwe's poor has become..."

Evidently, murder and stealing is okay, as long as you're doing it for the poor. Good God, everyone's been trained nicely. Nobody even questions the greater injustice here, just that this effort is tainted because the land is not "going for the poor."

"What started out as a noble effort to give land to Zimbabwe's poor..."

redistribution for the oppressed... the evil of karl marx
"from each according to his ability to each according to his need...." the very kernel of all evils that flow under the auspices of statist socialism...

and it is increasing here in the USA every time they take a bigger bite of our income, or our personal property... for their ever-larger socialist spending programs... and ever-larger personal intrusions into our private lives..."all hail the nanny-state... Oh great, Nanny state, take care of us... we need you to protect with more laws, police and intrusions into our privacy while you supply us with whatever we want or need, and take from those who rightfully earned it to begin with...."

"there ought to be a law", "we need to regulate" and it is all "for the children." Marx would be proud.

All worship the masters of the socialist nanny state...

It starts out sounding all noble... but it is paved with the bodies and blood of good and hard working people.

Our governor, kitzhaber wants a tax increase... here in oregon... while we have the highest unemployment in the nation and the timber industry is crippled by the radical greenie movement and the teachers unions rife with radical militant gays...

It's all for the good of our children... and the education of them... Socialists make me want to puke... and blind americans who live in denial that we are becoming a socialist nanny state..."America is different" they say... as another intrusive and expensive government program bites into their paycheck... "for the children..."

They are even redistributing land, from farmers and timber industry property owners, by use of the watershed and endangered species acts... same results as in zimbabwe, people lose their land to other interests... just a more sophisticated methodology... protecting the environment,,, for our children's future... or similar.
