Obama and Communism in the USA

Is this the start of Communism in the US? Is Obama going to baby step it into reality?

"Nationalization talk picked up steam after Alan Greenspan, former Federal Reserve Chairman, recently told the Financial Times "it may be necessary to temporarily nationalize some banks in order to facilitate a swift and orderly restructuring."

Problem with this theory is that it orginated from some Wallstreet types .. back when Bush was in office.


Sure, a lot of the same are now running for cover, but we have seen how much the banks have done on thier own for our country this past year.

If you want to see the closest example to our times ... go study Roosevelt's administration.

Communism - no

Socialism based on class envy, hatred against wealthy job creators, and the prosperous - possibly yes, but we'll have to see if the current electoral trends continue into the 2010 & 2012 elections.

Temporary nationalization may be necessary, but it isn't socialism if it's temporary.

Yes. And then the government will just give that power back. Just like after the Great Depression ended. Yup that happened.

It's more that they're just really, really ignorant of what Communism actually is.

You don't even know the crazies out there.

This dude who ran against Obama for Illinois State Senate claims his actions reveal that he's clearly a Communist and needs to be stopped before the country falls apart. No, don't laugh, it isn't funny in the slightest!

I guess at some point we all get tired of kicking the shit out of other people. Beating the hell out of ourselves is a good change of pace.
