Entrenched socialism robbing our Treasury

Washington D.C. is a roiling cesspool of unparalleled corruption that reinforces the adage, “The more you get away with, the more you try.” Elected officials and the entrenched bureaucracy are the parasitic spawn of socialism, unchecked and buying reelections with the peoples’ Treasury. The problem with socialists, per Margaret Thatcher, is that they “eventually run out of other people’s money.”

Socialists, with cruel disregard for the individual, have purchased generational voter dependency by their unfettered, hapless distribution of government largesse. Forget that such dependency entraps millions, forget unsustainable public debt, forget rampant corruption, forget a resulting shattered, jobless economy, forget activist judges unilaterally creating law; the Democratic Socialist Party manic compulsion for absolute control must prevail.

Obama’s Affordable Care Act’s clandestine objective was never health care. The real objective was and is the purchase of votes. SNAP — not to aid people in need, but to buy voters. Unfettered immigration, illegal campaign financing, judicial gerrymandering, no voter ID. If you can’t win an election legally — cheat.

A recent financial study indicates that with a 3.5% annual growth in GDP, the public debt could be retired in thirty years. The Achilles heel — absent reform, entrenched socialism intercepts every cent.
