v Labor comes before, and is the
essence of, all forms of capital. Capital cannot exist
without the primary existence
of Labor.
v From Thomas Jefferson to Abraham Lincoln
to Norman Thomas, and beyond, our Nation was born of European Style Socialist Theories
and movements.
v As it happened throughout the 1800’s,
the United
States of North America wound up enjoying the practice of Marxist
socialism more so than than the European Nations it was trying to emulate. Most
of the socialist movements in Europe died a quick death.
v The Industrial Revolution of the late
1800’s and early 1900’s turned the USoNA from its unique brand
of Socialism toward its equally unique brand of Capitalism, which have coexisted
for over a century.
v By definition, the USoNA
is has practiced exactly the same expansionist behavior that led it into Social
and Economic Revolution for its Independence. The evolution from a group of partisans yearning to be free of tyranny has lost itself in the muck and mire
of Socialism, Colonialism and Capitalism.
v It is never a good idea to meld the
terms Socialism and Communism. They simply are
not one, and the same, and there is a place for both to exist independently.
v What today are termed our overbearing
Entitlement Programs are often referred to as Socialistic. Social Security,
Medicare, Unemployment Insurance, and Worker Disability Insurances were theoretically
born of Socialism (Marxism), but were tailored specifically for our own
Economic System. These programs are not Entitlements; they are
contracts with the working public, employers, and government. These programs
are set up as contributory insurance plans. They are not handouts, nor are they
free money.
