Nietzsche is an atheist German philosopher who lived from 1844-1900 and together with others of the radical left of that time like Arthur Schopenhower created the intellectual atmosphere for Karl Marx and his Communist Manifesto. They called for changing society – but not to improve the life of people but to use them to gain power and keep it. He created the concept of "overman," the man stronger than others with the right to step over the weak, which attracted Hitler. The alternative to Marxism is not capitalism, as so many people believe. The only alternative is an answer to the spiritual fundament of this godless philosophy. The change they are talking about is no change but a steppingstone to their own power on the way to a totalitarian system. Socialist Hitler destroyed free society in a few months. Socialist Obama is close to his steppingstone. The following is an attempt to clarify the issue.
Marxists believe that a non-socialist society is to blame for what is wrong with people and therefore, change has to begin with those who are responsible for society, mainly "the rich."...
Barack Obama has not touched corruption and moral issues. His plans for dealing with issues are of economic nature and are pure Marxism – blaming the non-socialist enemies and distributing money to bribe poor voters, making them dependent on government and cementing its power. Marxism's concepts lead to the welfare state – and on to a totalitarian system built on lies where government is central. There is no real concern for people; power is at the heart of all their projects.

I think I’m getting ulcers.
A must-read. Thanks for posting! Bookmarked...
Or, to put it another way ... American constitutional government is not fit for Democrats.
Right now the indians are circling our wagons. Shoot their horses, boys. Once they're on foot we can pick them off.
One of the primary features of fascism is government control of private property for the common good, as defined by the state.
Fascist Germany had a veneer of capitalism on the surface, but underneath thousands of fascist functionaries controlled the businesses through bureaucratic dictates.
Hitler stated several times that private property was allowed provided you used that property to carry out the will of the state. He realized that his followers were idiots and could never be expected to manage industry, supply and distribution.
Businesses, in turn, had great difficulty in managing their day-to-day affairs, as dicates coming from the state could change from one week to the next. Many businessmen took to studying Marxism to try to understand what the state wanted.
It’s documented in the 1939 book titled “The Vampire Economy.”
Well written. Marxism is their religion.

Actually, Germany wasn't "fascist". There are doctrinal differences that were of no interest to Americans fighting both Italian fascists and German Nazis, but German and Italian political literati understood them well.
As you say, the State is paramount in fascism, and in a fascist system all persons, capital, and activities exist to support and carry out the will and the best interests of the State. A consequence of fascist thought was that the old nobility were tolerated because their prestige and social authority, if propery used, served to support the State. Nazism, however, did not promote and sustain the old family pretensions. Neither did Communism, which waged class warfare on them.
National Socialism is a species of social-ism, and as in Communism the interests of the People are (theoretically) paramount -- das Volk. Nazi theorists and mountebank scholars of the SS-Ahnenerben spent a lot of time glorifying the misty past of the German Volk and connecting to it, to uphold their political claim to be defenders, champions, and agents of the German People in just the same way that the Dictatorship of the Proletariat was claimed by Communists to be the shield of the working class people.
The Russian Communists likewise wore out the Russian word narodny, "of the People", in providing names for their institutions and government organs: The People's Bank of Moscow, for instance, is today known to us simply as Narodny Bank.

yeah...and

This is nothing new. We knew this a year ago and NOW people are paying attention with one day to go.
Kind of sobering to think everyone who votes for Obama is either a “useful idiot” or an enemy to the American way of life.
Well, that is exactly what I believe.
I consider 0bama supporters to be a threat to my family.
Ignorance is no excuse in my opinion, because from my experience, the ignorance is WILLFUL and INTENTIONAL.
Or just an idiot. I know the context, but I don't like calling people trying to destroy the country "useful"
An infirm relative of the young Ratzinger was taken by the Nazis and killed. This was during a run-up to the Holocaust where Germans who had chronic illnesses were “euthanized” by the state. So Pope Benedict knows what it is like when a death cult takes over a country. The West is fortunate to have a leader like Benedict, who is fighting today’s culture of death that is a direct descendant of Naziism.
Well, the “Useful idiots” have finally figured out that they actually do not pay any taxes and if they vote for Obama they will receive a “free” $1,000 check, plus “free” medical benefits, plus “free” mortgages, etc, etc. What has changed is that until recently these people did not realize they don't pay taxes. Those who work, just took their W-2’s to H&R Block or some such place and their taxes would be calculated, including their so called “Earned Income Tax Credit” and they got money back. They never bothered to study the calculus of all this. So, they were blind to the fact that they are the recipients of negative taxes. Anyway, now with the Earned Income Tax Credit plus Obama’s new check of $1,000 or so, these people will receive about $3,000 in hand-outs on their next tax return. Is this a great country or what....
Nietzsche and Marx had one thing in common--they both had Ph.D.'s from German universities.
