Republican Communism

[KingFlorez]

For all of those freepers who throw the word Communist around, I'm afraid we're already in a Communism society. A Republican communist society. George Bush and the Republicans are giving trillions in tax cuts to the rich, which will cause the burden to be shifted to the middle class, They're paying the corporations to send our jobs overseas. They're giving subsidies to the oil companies in the name of "research", They tried to privitize our social security system to allow Wall Street to profit from it, They're allowing Halliburton to rip us off with war profiteering, 9 billion dollars has dissapeared on their watch disappeared, They want to limit wages for the worker, They refuse to close offshore tax loopholes, They protect the pharmaceutical and medical companies. Communism is government owned enterprise and a centrally planned economy, except with Republican Communism the Republican Party is controlled by the corporations to give them subsidies, get rid of labor and consumer protections, increase their profits and shape economic policy. The difference here is to allow the corporate sector to centrally plan the economy through elected Republicans. A new form of Communism is here and it's just as bad as the Soviets.

1. It's worse than communism...it's corporatism...

and combined with total control of the government it becomes fascism.

2. While I like the sound of it I think they're Fascists.

At least by Mussillini's standards.

Probably along the lines of a Pinochet or Franco. Not horrific like the Nazis just totalitarian rich fuckheads that aren't afraid to snuff out Liberals and Progressives if push comes to shove. No WHEN push comes to shove.
