For the vast majority of its adherents, the socialist creed is a free lunch, a free ride, and a chance to feel superior to the rest of those not so 'enlightened.' Redemption and salvation on the cheap.

For the elite, it represents the ideal Ponzi scheme dedicated to the establishment and maintenance of their control and management of the human cattle upon whom they feed.

For the new recruits from the insitutions of higher learning it promises membership in that ruling elite. If you will membership in a new class of nobility with even more rights and privledges than a medevil lord.

Just so. The death-worshippers of socialism have a lot in common with the death-worshippers of Islam. They're every bit as fanatic, and they're every bit as committed to total and utter domination of mankind. A difference of style, not substance.

The present is a whole lot like a drift down the river towards Niagra falls. It's pretty peaceful, maybe a few bumps here and there. But there's a long drop and hell to pay up ahead. What's that rumble I hear in the distance?


BTW, it should be _Joshua_ Muravchik, not Jason. My bad.
