I hear a lot of Republicans criticizing Democrats as being "socialists" or "communists". I think the Republicans need to look in the mirror and stop putting their party before country. Why do Republicans support a party and a system that is taking away people's economic rights to live a life with human decency?
I think we can all agree we have a one-party communist system in this country. The problem is it's NOT the kind of communism that is in the worker's favor. The billionaires pay the lobbyists to get the politicians to pass laws creating cartels and monopolies in exchange for campaign financing. What we have in this country is corporate communism. We have pricing fixing of wages, products, and services BUT NOT in the worker's favor:

The economic data is clearly NOT in the favor of the worker. Every worker is broke and in debt and one or two missing paychecks away from being homeless.
I hear a lot of criticisms of Democrats. But the Republicans are putting party before country. What difference does it make what kind of communism we have? I think Republicans are just as bad Democrats. Anyone who thinks otherwise is being delusional.
And Democrats are not really Democrats. Hillary Clinton is a Nixon Republican. She admitted in her book she worked on Barry Goldwater's presidential campaign. Barry Goldwater was a Republican!!!
We have no choice in this country. We have no democracy. Here are the words from an FDR 1936 post Great Depression speech:
"An old English judge once said: 'Necessitous men are not free men.' Liberty requires opportunity to make a living - a living decent according to the standard of the time, a living which gives man not only enough to live by, but something to live for.
For too many of us the political equality we once had won was meaningless in the face of economic inequality. A small group had concentrated into their own hands an almost complete control over other people's property, other people's money, other people's labor - other people's lives. For too many of us life was no longer free; liberty no longer real; men could no longer follow the pursuit of happiness.
Against economic tyranny such as this, the American citizen could appeal only to the organized power of government."
FDR's words are MORE true today than in 1936!!! Necessitous men are not free men. Nothing will change in this country as long as Republicans keep putting their party before country. What we have in this country is corporate communism. The workers are screwed!!!
