A response to ‘What is socialism?’

Posted

To the Editor:

The writer asked what is Socialism? The easy answer: every policy the Democrats have proposed to win the 2020 elections.

Let’s review: Democrats have stated they want to eliminate customs enforcement (ICE) and border patrol agents so they can open our borders and have tax-payers pay for free healthcare for anyone arriving in America. Their Medicare-for-All is Medicare-for-None as the math deprived Dems can’t pay for it without raising taxes on every individual, business and confiscating profits to use as they please.

Over 200 million will lose their private healthcare. A proposal of 42 percent value added tax on your purchases is one part of a solution and Sanders/Warren want 70 percent to 97.5 percent tax on businesses, that will close or leave the country. They propose a wealth tax and want an inventory of your property to tax valuables.

The Green Deal pushed by a 29-year-old bartender, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) — so smart she lost 25,000 ($100,000-plus salaried) jobs for New York — has been adopted by all Democrats. It eliminates the use of gas and oil and requires retrofitting every home and business to solar or electric — this applies to every vehicle, truck, farm and construction equipment where charging stations and wind turbines will dominate the country.

Planes will be eliminated and replaced with high-speed rail, cows will be gone because they fart and pollute the air and environmental controls over land will be egregious. By taking out acres of trees for solar panels and wind turbines, they are eliminating the very trees and plants that convert carbon dioxide.

Universal based salary/income will be demanded by the government, even paid to those that don’t work. They want to legalize drugs that killed over 77,000 Americans last year, decriminalize prostitution, AOC wants to close prisons and give murderers the right to vote.

Reparations will be given to the blacks for their vote and to drug dealers. They want to stack the Supreme Court with as many as 15 judges, eliminate the electoral college, so only a couple of states decide on the president and elected officials. The voting age will be lowered to 16 and Harris said illegals can work in Congress.

Education will be free for everyone and student and healthcare debt eliminated.

Students will learn of the 72 kinds of sex in this genderless society and how to protest for climate change, eliminating all guns and your first amendments rights of free speech, press, religion and assembly. History, our Constitution and math they want to eliminate because it is considered racist now or established by white supremist. I am not kidding!

AOC has proposed to take funds from the military and Democrats have a war on police. Will you be safer with the infiltration of 85,000 Central American gang members having drug wars and ISIS members with caliphate goals to take over America and have their flag fly over the White House?

If a Democrat is elected president, or they control the House and Senate, this is what we can expect and why this election will decide the fate of America. Obama’s Department of Homeland Security and other Democrats warned candidates not to discuss these proposals or they would lose the election.

That means sell Americans a lie and once you’re in office do as you please. With ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC controlling 90 percent of news cycle, most people are not aware of these proposals. If you love the freedoms we have enjoyed in this country, you will educate your friends, your children and grandchildren before the 2020 election.

The government abuse of the Social Security System, federal and state taxes and the truth about tariffs will be addressed in another letter to the editor.
