Bernie the Nominee?

I shudder to remember when he was a serious candidate for president. I remember a time when being a communist or a socialist was “the kiss of death” for a politician, and rightly so because socialism, and communism, are different forms of collectivism, which is a system BASED on the theft of the fruits of the production of new wealth by a producer, for the benefit of the NON-producer. In other words, stealing the property of those who EARNED it and giving it to those who did NOT. Their very motto reveals this: “FROM each according to his ABILITY, and TO each according to his NEED.” Making need a DEMAND upon the EARNINGS of those capable and willing to earn their own way by those unwilling to do so. That’s STEALING in any man’s language, and those who propose it should never be allowed to run for office, much less the presidency, in a free country. Bernie Sanders “bad mouths” rich people by being rich, himself.

He hates the free market while benefiting from it. He is a hypocrite. The only reason I can come up with to see that this abomination is no longer a “kiss of death” for a politician is that liberals in our education system have been systematically brainwashing their students for years to believe collectivism is the way to go, even though many countries whose government is based on collectivism have failed, big time, while America has prospered beyond anybody’s wildest dreams. The free market is why millions of people want to come here and take part in the economy it has produced—while people just emerging from their teenage years, who haven’t been on this Earth long enough to know anything, LOVE collectivism. They will learn better the longer they live, but they don’t know now—and by the time they learn, we may be the next Soviet Union. (American Thinker)
