This provides a troubling glimpse at the mentality that triggers the outrages that eventually become overwhelming.

Even more frightening, I just read in the Washington Post that Fairfax County, Virginia is actually considering buying up foreclosed houses and providing them to low income people with some sort of advantageous financing scheme. Fairfax has also been a regional leader in providing a welcoming enviroment for “undocumented” aliens. Fairfax County, has consistently been among the country’s wealthiest but has spent itself into a bind; has a deteriorating school system; and a myriad of other problems that are legitimate concerns for county government. But, undaunted they are thinking of branching out into the real estate business.

Ymarsakar is absolutey right. They creep up on you with smiling faces.

The cycle of thugocracy and banana republics uses such a principle.

It took a lot of effort to create, grow, and mature a system of government that could withstand human tendencies and flaws.

It won’t take nearly as long nor nearly as much effort to destroy that system.

Yet socialists prefer peace to war, ostensibly. I wonder why, when they are attempting their enemies’ defeat with so much alacrity.

Welfare systems and entitlement programs are turning us into a nation of freeloaders. That’s a perfect populace to elect Obama.

And the more the economy suffers, and the more afraid people become that they won’t be able to afford the basics of life, the more they seem to want somebody to take over and provide it for them anyway. And it doesn’t seem to register that they never get what they were promised.

What I love about all of this is that the evidence is right there in front of us. And yet, the left is being quite successful at convincing Americans that everything will be much better if we just do what the Europeans have done.

Our current system is not perfect and could definitely use some work but my fear is that if, God forbid, Obama becomes president, we will tear apart all that is good and works with our current system.
