What we are seeing happened 3000 years ago when people abandon moral principles and embraced this, "do what feels good" mantra, worshiped Baal and began sacrificing babies on Baals alter...they lost everything and they were taken as slaves to build a tower. We know how that worked out...
What they are after is a homogeneous society made up of brainwashed and controlled masses. It used to be the "proletariat" or more precisely the "lumpen proletariat", in the times of Marx and Engels.
Why do you think Stalin exterminated millions who did not fit the description or why China established "outer areas" in Mongolia where they sent those who were not willing to conform or simply had a different mindset.
This is the direction globalists are going now. Former Marxists realized that communism is no longer passé, so they found globalism which lends itself nicely into the same philosophical class.
Never forget: the elites preach the "advantages" of it but they mean the masses and they control of their lives. They are exempt. A good example is ACA which was supposed to apply to everyone except Congress.
There is nothing new about socialist/communist elite being rich.
Check out the lifestyle of party bosses and their entourage in former communist countries. While people were relegated to live at poverty level, these potentates had Swiss bank accounts and access to goods ordinary citizens did not even hear of.
Most of this largesse came from embezzling public funds and it was taken for granted that once someone became part of the inner circle, riches followed.
Among my best memories at Pensacola's Aviation Officer Candidate School was in the chow hall, witnessing a drill instructor march his first-week class (Poopies) in and screaming at them to pile their plates high because they needed energy. Once they got seated, he barked that anything that was on their plates in 2 minutes would go into their green flight suit pockets. Watching the entire class stuffing their pockets with pork chops and gravy was among the funniest things I've ever seen.
To get rich doing this requires that society is rife with addled, stupid people. That, my friend, is the new America in a nutshell. Can we stop the transformation in that direction? I don't think so.
Several years ago I worked with a guy who escaped Vietnam soon after we gave up the battle there. He escaped on a boat, without his family, at the age of 12. A couple times he told me the story, with a glint in his eye, about how his father was a hard-working professional in So. Vietnam. They had a family with 3 kids, a nice house with a courtyard and fountain. Then, the communists came in and put is family in a 1-room shack. They'd come by and if the family had more shoes than feet, they'd take shoes away. Slept on a dirty, wood floor, etc... After hearing the story a couple times I stopped him and said, "Hey, wait a minute. What happened to your nice home with the fountain and courtyard?" He said, matter of fact, "Oh, the Communists moved into it." I'll always remember that conversation. This reminds me of it, so I thought I'd share...
Some are calling her: Mad Maxine, yep an honest lunatic and as for the muzzle...gorilla tape works well...(No Puns intended)...she does have a big mouth...need something stronger that plain ole duck tape. Besides, I figured the "Ducks" would get offended!
They cling to Socialist title as they want to be the entitled socialists live with the best and have power. They do not want that for the majority of their constituents, however, as they know that equality is not possible. Capitalists on the other hand want success for anyone willing to work for it. They do not desire to control, but to engage in trade. These folks bbenefitted, not from capitalism, but through crony capitalism, and that is the worst. and most dishonest. Controlled capitalism, which is what the oligarchs want, is not capitalism, and not good for anyone.
I kind of liked Trump's name for her Low IQ Maxine. She is so far out there, but t least honest. I dont think she would resign, but they might muzzle her (unfortunately).
Well, y'all, I didn't realize that there were so many meanings for "cote." I use the word to refer to a small enclosure for animals especially sheeple. It's a good word, although "pen" will do nicely.
Why am me dino thinking of Kim Jong Un, the only fat person I've ever seen in North Korea? Oh, yeah, I know! Me dino recently read that his hungry soldiers, the pigeons with all the guns who could kill him, often raid the farms of their own comrade peasants for lack of enough food in the mess hall. Back in 1970 when me a Marine caught mess duty, unbelievable was the amount of food that was dumped after each chow call. Word for today is~ https://www.google.com/search?q=cote&... Me ain't done heerd thet thar word down heah in the Deep South.
Spot on, Dino. The Socialist motto..."Do as I say, not as I do." The sheeple can't see this. I guess that they want to exist in the cote while the elites live an opulent life style in beautiful homes.
They would have to assure her that she would be allowed to espouse her views without negative comments from the FOX people. Just let her talk until the grave she digs for herself implodes. She talks way too much for her own good, but it would help voters to decide against democrats.
I'm sure FOX would be thrilled to put Maxine on with Tucker Carlson -- I doubt Maxine will willingly go anywhere that isn't going to fawn all over her 'courage'.
