What You Really Need To Know By: Jay Harris | - First let it be said that we haven"t fallen off the cliff yet but we are standing at the brink. What is transpiring today is making the founding fathers "roll over in their graves".

You might ask why this form of government, w ... Tags:POLITICS, GOVERNMENT, SOCIALISM

Exporting Problems: Lessons From Central Banks, Big Business And Governments By: JD Durham | - Some valuable lessons can be learned from how Central Banks, Big Business and Governments shift their problems to the people of the world that can little afford them.

The History Of China - A Decade Ago And Now By: jhon | - If you were in the China of Deng Xiaoping in 1978 on your Chinese visa, you would have seen a nation bogged down with the ills of socialism, an erosion of the work ethic and anti-market propaganda. China responded with economic reforms such as the decentralization of agriculture, accepting foreign investment and permitting private entrepreneurship. You should have been in China now as winds of change were sweeping over it, on your China visa.

Free Vegetable Seeds For Charity And Self-sufficiency By: Richard Weed | - Back in World War II, when America lived under a form of wartime socialism, people were expected to grow “victory gardens” in order to free up resources for the war effort. With rationing in place, many Americans grew much of their own food. Today, as food prices soar and bank accounts dwindle, self-sufficiency through gardening is making an emphatic comeback. Many people new to gardening are curious to learn where they can find free vegetable seeds.

Making A Case For Csr By: shashannk | - Corporate social responsibility and volunteerism have no boundaries and are not constrained by race, color, or religion. Sadly, concern for the community is often mistaken for socialism. On the contrary, capitalism thrives only when every citizen is an asset in economic activity and has opportunities to succeed. Corporate social responsibility is a culture and unwritten contract with the community. This invisible culture can shape brighter futures for nations. As a constructive partner in the co ...

Working Together For Recovery By: Richard D. Kilgore | - Jobs are one of the most important factors involved with the recovery from economic disaster. In history it is hard to find any country that has survived a total collapse of their economy without first rebuilding their job market. Socialism and/or communism have tried this for centuries. Most often jobs created in this arena are government owned; government controlled and guess who benefits the most, the government. To cap that off, countries under socialism or communism normally wind up rul ... Tags:jobs, conservatives, liberals, economic stability, Congress, work
Health Care-what The Future Holds By: Ethan Kalvin | - The questions about national health care having been nagging America for years. Some know that it is necessary no matter who has to pay for it and others believe that it is a slow roll to Socialism, which is something America has been fighting for years. Politicians have been battling with the issue for years and it has been a polarizing issue in both houses of Congress. You are either for it or against it, but the one thing that is clear is that something needs to be done to reform health care ... Tags:health care, medical coverage, future of healthcare
The Curse Of Beauty By: Barry | - The German quarterly business magazine Enorm ran, during a recent edition, an editorial on how honest capitalism appears to those who spent their early lives underneath the yoke of socialism in the previous East German provinces. The 2 page report featured 9 men and girls who had started new businesses or suggested others on the method of founding a business, with roughly one hundred words voicing their opinions and a photograph. Eight of the photographs showed those interviewed standing or sitt ... Tags:Beauty
Why Do Private Money Investors Matter When Starting A Small Business? By: Vincent Irwin | - In those days when socialism was at its peak and socialist economies were all about the government taking control of everything, life was pretty difficult for people. Those with political connection could erect industries and for the others life was still difficult. With the change in air, economies became capitalist and there arose a wave of free trade and then globalization. The government had suddenly ceased to play a major part in the business and allowed people to take part in the country ... Tags:private investors, money investors matter, investors matter

Doing Business With Socialists By: Brian Jones | - The U.S. maintains an official trade embargo with Cuba, a relic of a time before the United States embraced socialism. Europe and Canada do not have this embargo, and they have been forced to re-learn the risks of doing business with socialists.
Last year, the Cuban government blocked withdrawals from Cuban bank accounts owned by foreign firms, effectively defaulting on payments to exporters.
It appears that the Cuban government did this because they ran out of cash ... Tags:business, politics, socialism
An Atlas Shrugged Moment For Venezuela By: Brian Jones | - In Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged, the productive members of society are crowded out by bureaucrats and politicians until finally the national rail system becomes unsafe to travel upon due to a lack of skilled maintenance personnel. The politicos whine and scream for the system to be fixed, but they don't have the technical know-how to understand what needs to be done. More importantly, they don't have the respect for intelligence, hard work, and technology. They just assume that they can get whateve ... Tags:ayn rand, venezuela, hugo chavez
All For Greece And Grief For All By: Eric Blair | - At first glance it seems ironic that Europe, long disdainful of American-style capitalism and haughtily proud of its womb-to-tomb smorgasbord of lavish government-managed goodies, should be tightening its various belts, while on this side of the big pond we continue to tinker with our economy to conjure up just the right mix of American-style socialism and the free market activity needed to support it.
Meanwhile, our esteemed leader is lecturing the Europeans not to turn off the swa ... Tags:socialism, government, Europe, economy
Socialism Is Deadly By: Tr Cojoc | - Socialism is not self-sustainable. It needs a leader to employ the power of the state to achieve its goals.

Obama Student Loan Program And Communist Free Education By: Tr Cojoc | - President Obama signed legislation to expand college access for millions of young Americans by revamping the federal student loan program in what he called "one of the most significant investments in higher education since the G.I. Bill."
A word of caution is warranted here. The student loan program could easily become a vehicle for youth enslavement by the US Government.
U.s. Manufacturing Jobs Move From Hostile To Friendly Environments By: Tr Cojoc | - I worked in the electronics industry in various management positions expanding over 35 years. The last 20 years things have changed, for the worst. Government regulations and taxes have forced manufacturing to move out of this country.

WWII unlike other wars had a lasting impact on the whole world for two generations. It established a protected communist system with its spheres of influence and started the cold war. Thousands of people died and millions were negatively affected, mostly due to the totalitarian communist control.
The United States adopted the First Amendment of the Constitution on December 15, 1791.
The Bolshevik revolution started the creation of Soviet Union, a country almost ten times the size of the United States and Canada combined, in 1917. That was 126 years after the First Amendment was added to the US Constitution.
Why Communism Collapsed? "€" Education By: Tr Cojoc | - Communism collapsed when the new leaders and the population within became educated. Liberals in the US are trying hard to dumb down education, so that this country will slowly drift towards socialism.

What Happened After The First Thanksgiving? By: Michael A. Verdicchio | - Various stories of the Pilgrims' first Thanksgiving exist. Some are conflicting while others have been greatly embellished. But, everyone concurs that the first winter at Plymouth was brutal, and deadly, with half of the colony losing their lives. It is not my intention to prove or disprove some of the stories told about that first Thanksgiving. Instead, I hope to share with you a story you may not be familiar with.
A Day In A Life Under Obamacare By: Howard Jacobs | - Johnny AveragePerson is 63 years old and in relatively good health. His wife passed away six years ago. He has a daughter living in Florida and a son who lives in New Jersey. Johnny lives in Brooklyn, New York and works at a bank, commuting into Manhattan each day.
Today is a pleasant spring day in May; Johnny has just gotten off the morning train and walks into the corner deli to get a doughnut and a cup of coffee. Let's listen in!

The Slow Transition Over Into Socialism By: Rene Luis | - Mind you, not many would stand now for turning our democracy into a socialist nation, but gradually, slowly, over time, this will be the case. Indeed, if many of those in Congress and in high-profile government positions get their way. They understand that an abrupt turn that pushes this agenda onto the American public will not work. This is why they believe that through small dosages they can accomplish their goals.
Is Socialism Knocking On Your Door? By: Paul Sidelinger | - So you voted for Barack Obama thinking he will change the world, end the Iraq war, etc?
Yeah, he sure will change the world. He's already spent more money than any president in American history (as if our government spending wasn't high enough) on bailing out all the sorry excuses for corporations that can't manage their way out of grade school.
How Can The Government Actually Stimulate The Economy? By: Angêl | - People make the right decisions far more often than the government ever has, does, or will. I think that the best form of government is one that encourages, facilitate, and empower the individual citizen to make their own individual choices on how to live their lives. I feel that this translates to the government trying its best to get out of the way much more often than 'providing' anything. I think that maybe the government should abolish the tax code as it is completely; And, maybe instit ... Tags:LIBERTY, SOCIALISM, GOVERNMENT, ECONOMY, STIMULUS, BAILOUT

Deconstructing Constructivism: Neosemiotic Capitalist Theory, Nihilism And Objectivism By: Mac Eaton | - If one examines dialectic socialism, one is faced with a choice: either accept postsemanticist discourse or conclude that the significance of the poet is social comment. Thus, several theories concerning nihilism exist. The premise of dialectic socialism holds that language is dead, but only if Bataille's model of nihilism is valid; if that is not the case, we can assume that the collective is capable of significance.
In a sense, Lyotard promotes the use of capitalist capitalism to ... Tags:socialism, dialectic, capitalism, marxist, nihilism, term, denote, between

Palestinians A.ka. Arabs, Praise Hitler [yet Again] By: C. Read | - Such a surprise! Arabs are once again expressing their love for their true leader, Herr Hitler. Not content with their past failed Nazi-alliance; their Nazified Baathism; or their dalliance with totalitarian Communism; the peaceful, educated and exalted Arabs are declaiming admiration for a deranged psychopath. In their lust for Jew eradication and Islamic supremacy the Arab masses are being 're-educated' to remember the greatness of der Fuehrer.
Ban The Burqa, The Hijab And The Niqab By: C. Read | - There are many good reasons to ban the moving bed sheet attire, apparently so deeply coveted as status symbols by Muslim women. Even if one is dubious of Islam's claim that its women really do like looking like unmade gliding beds, there are societal and cultural reaons why the Hijab should be banned. In short banning the Burqa, the Hijab and the Niqab would ban Islam's direct and anti-social assualt on Western values.
Ban The Koran. Now By: C. Read | - There are many misconceptions about Islam or Mohammedism as it should rightly be called. Western self-hatred; politically correct fascism; and an anti-Western educational and media establishment ascribe incorrect labels to the Mohammedan cult. Mohammedism is not a religion, it is not modern, and its main book the Koran, is overtly racist and supremacist. Time to ban it.
The Metamorphosis Of Socialism To Populist Statism By: Stew Mayers | - As welfare demands, reforms and expectations have grown so too has government's ability to recast political ideology and terms in its own self interested favour. Especially poignant has been government's reordering of economic, moral and spatial values in the left vs. right terminology. Government reform of its economic philosophy to become more liberal and egalitarian has also instigated a redefinition of socialism's attitude towards its own populist configuration.
