It's cool to be a socialist.
Page 103 of the April issue of Real Simple has a quote from Oscar Wilde’s The Soul of a Man Under Socialism "When man is happy, he is in harmony with himself and his environment."
Great.
Great.

The Socialism Parade
We need to wake up as a society. Socialism is no longer creeping in we are throwing parades and ushering it in with ticker tape.
Healthcare
Sea Trade Treaties
Amnesty Cities
Imminent Domain
Political Correctness
Religious Intolerance
What happened to the tradition of great thinkers in this country? What happened to the pioneering spirit that our country was founded on?
Why are we following in the footsteps of country’s and systems that are failing? It seems we are spending most of our time apologizing as a country for not being like the rest of the world.
We need to wake up or we will find ourselves in a country that we don’t recognize.
