STOPPING SOCIALISM IS THE MOST IMPORTANT ISSUE BEFORE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE TODAY!!
I have been asked by
many people around the Country if I would
write an explanation of Socialism, its
inherent evils and the effects it would have
upon us as individuals. The following is my
attempt at answering that request. For
certain, it would be a death blow to
capitalism as well as to the
God-given freedoms which we have enjoyed for
so long in the United States.
Our country’s economic
system is Capitalism, based upon private
ownership of property, which includes the
means of production and distribution and for
the creation of goods or services for income
and profit by individuals. It is a free
market economic system based on the
recognition of individual rights to own
property (lands, businesses, goods, etc.). Such
rights give individuals security and a means
to control their own affairs, thus their own
destiny.
Under Capitalism,
private citizens, with their ownership of
property, are responsible for the
production and distribution of
goods. Whereas, Socialism is government
ownership of property and control of
production and distribution. The essential
characteristic of Socialism is the denial of
individual property rights. Individuals
have no control over their own affairs and
destiny. Almost every aspect of living will
be regulated by government.
Someone has correctly
written, "Socialism is the doctrine that man
has no right to exist for his own sake, that
his life and his work do not belong to him,
but belong to society, that the only
justification of his existence is his
service to society, and that society may
dispose of him in any way it pleases for the
sake of whatever it deems to be in it's own
tribal, or collective good."
I do not believe the
majority of the American people would knowingly or
willingly adopt Socialism, once
understood.
However, it has been seeping in,
little by little, over the past one hundred
years pushed by progressives and liberals.
For the last
several years and most currently, Barack
Obama, Hillary Clinton and Bernie
Sanders. IF we aren’t careful,
every fragment of a socialist state will be
adopted, until one day America will be a full-blown
socialist nation, without realizing how it
happened. Many fragments of it were adopted
this week in the Democrat Party's Platform,
and the teaming up of Hillary Clinton and
Bernie Sanders in their full support of it.
Karl Marx, the
nineteenth century German socialist
revolutionary, taught that “Democracy is the
road to Socialism” and preached that
"Socialism represents the stage following
Capitalism in a country transforming to
Communism.” The platforms of Liberals,
Progressives and Socialists are drawn from
either Communism, Marxism or Fascism. They
are all varying degrees of Socialism known
as totalitarian concepts, differing in
degrees only. There is not one example of a
Socialist country, past or present, ever
producing the level of prosperity and
happiness for the people which our system of
Capitalism and private enterprise,
individual ownership of property, has
accomplished. If there were, people would
not be cutting fences, climbing walls,
swimming rivers or loading onto boats to
escape those countries to get into the United States.
The Representative Republic of the United States with our Capitalist
and Free Enterprise Market System has been
the world's dominant economic system for
over two hundred years. Within it, the means
of production of goods and the distribution
of those goods are owned by individuals.
Since America’s beginnings, the
freedom of private ownership and free
enterprise with it's spirit of
competition, have led to the abundance of
food and products, more efficiency, lower
prices, better products and rising
prosperity. The production of food and
materials and private individual prosperity
has never been – can never be - equaled by
any socialist country.
The people of almost
every country on the continent of Africa are starving to death.
Daily, we are shown the fly blown faces of
these starving people. Every one of those
countries have Socialist governments of some
form. Every country on the continent of Europe (European
Common Market) is today experiencing
the results of the evils of Socialism with
extremely high taxes and poor economies.
Glaring examples are Greece with it's economic
collapse, closely followed by Spain and Portugal, with the same fate
closing in on the remainder of Europe, to the point
the people of England voted to abandon it. Despite
tax rates of 80% and more they are drowning
in public debt without enough food and goods
to support the people. Hillary Clinton, a
strong proponent of Socialism, will lead our
Country toward that same end.
How would Socialism
affect YOU as an individual? By necessity,
tax rates in America will reach upward of
90%, and our way of life will be exactly
like that in Europe. Socialized health
care will mandate who your doctor will be,
even whether or not you are a candidate for
treatment of an illness, private ownership
of property will be denied, starting and
maintaining a business impossible. Even the
small things in our everyday lives such as
the kind of windows you may put in your
house and the type of light bulbs you may
buy. The
list of evils of Socialism is a long one. Be
warned - Socialism is nothing more than
the sharing of misery.
The
proponents of Socialism, Hillary Clinton,
Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders and others,
use the plight of the poor, the
disenfranchised and the jobless with their
promises to equalize income, redistribution
of wealth, level the economic playing field,
free college for all, take from those who
have and give to those who have not, to take
power and control the people. The concept
that, with hard work and perseverance,
anybody can get ahead economically in the United States, will be destroyed.
Most Americans think
this could NOT happen here. I used to think
that … until I realized differently. Not
only can it happen here, IT IS happening
here – right here, right now.
We, that would be you
and me, must fight what is happening. We
cannot sit this one out. We
cannot rely on someone else doing it for us. We
have a duty and an obligation to protect,
defend and preserve our Country, our
freedom, our way of life. We must be devoted
to our Free Republic and it's Constitution,
and strengthen our resolve to keep it. If we
must die, let us stand tall and die on our
feet, fighting, and not on our knees in
subjugation. We don’t have a lot of time. IF we
lose, that loss will come at an unthinkable
cost to every American. November 8th,
2016 you will have your opportunity to
save yourself and this nation from Hillary
Clinton and her ambitions to gain power
and Socialize this wonderful country.
The price
of freedom has always come with a hefty
price tag. Not
a single American soldier has ever died in
defense of Socialism.
I encourage
you to distribute this writing in any way
you wish.
STOPPING
SOCIALISM IS THE MOST IMPORTANT ISSUE BEFORE
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE TODAY.
Until next
time: May God bless you and yours;
Your friend
in freedom;
John Porter
