Russian Newspaper Article -
The irony of this article appearing in the English edition of Pravda
(Russian on-line newspaper) defies description. Why can a Russian
newspaper print the following yet the American media can't/won't see it?
American Capitalism Gone With A Whimper
It must be said, that like the breaking of a great dam, the American
descent into Marxism is happening with breathtaking speed, against the
backdrop of a passive, hapless sheeple, excuse me dear reader, I meant
people.
True, the situation has been well
prepared on and off for the past century, especially the past twenty
years. The initial testing grounds was conducted upon our Holy Russia
and a bloody test it was. But we Russians would not just roll over and
give up our freedoms and our souls, no matter how much money Wall Street
poured into the fists of the Marxists.
Those lessons were taken and used to
properly prepare the American populace for the surrender of their
freedoms and souls, to the whims of their elites and betters.
First, the population was dumbed down
through a politicized and substandard education system based on pop
culture, rather then the classics. Americans know more about their
favorite TV dramas than the drama in DC that directly affects their
lives. They care more for their "right" to choke down a McDonalds burger
or a Burger King burger than for their constitutional rights. Then they
turn around and lecture us about our rights and about our "democracy".
Pride blind the foolish.
Then their faith in God was destroyed,
until their churches, all tens of thousands of different "branches and
denominations" were for the most part little more then Sunday circuses
and their televangelists and top protestant mega preachers were more
then happy to sell out their souls and flocks to be on the "winning"
side of one pseudo Marxist politician or another. Their flocks may
complain, but when explained that they would be on the "winning" side,
their flocks were ever so quick to reject Christ in hopes for earthly
power. Even our Holy Orthodox churches are scandalously liberalized in
America .
The final collapse has come with the
election of Barack Obama. His speed in the past three months has been
truly impressive. His spending and money printing has been a record
setting, not just in America 's short history but in the world. If this
keeps up for more then another year, and there is no sign that it will
not, America at best will resemble the Weimar Republic and at worst
Zimbabwe.
These past two weeks have been the
most breath taking of all. First came the announcement of a planned
redesign of the American Byzantine tax system, by the very thieves who
used it to bankroll their thefts, losses, and swindles of hundreds of
billions of dollars. These make our Russian oligarchs look little more
then ordinary street thugs, in comparison. Yes, the Americans have beat
our own thieves in the sheer volumes. Should we congratulate them?
These men, of course, are not an
elected panel but made up of appointees picked from the very financial
oligarchs and their henchmen who are now gorging themselves on trillions
of American dollars, in one bailout after another. They are also
usurping the rights, duties, and powers of the American congress
(parliament). Again, congress has put up little more than a whimper to
their masters.
Then came Barack Obama's command that
GM's (General Motors) president step down from leadership of his
company. That is correct, dear reader, in the land of "pure" free
markets, the American president now has the power, the self-given power,
to fire CEOs and we can assume other employees of private companies, at
will. Come hither, go dither, the centurion commands his minions.
So it should be no surprise that the
American president has followed this up with a "bold" move of declaring
that he and another group of unelected, chosen stooges will now redesign
the entire automotive industry and will even be the guarantee of
automobile policies. I am sure that if given the chance, they would
happily try and redesign it for the whole of the world, too. Prime
Minister Putin, less then two months ago, warned Obama and UK 's Blair,
not to follow the path to Marxism, it only leads to disaster.
Apparently, even though we suffered 70 years of this Western sponsored
horror show, we know nothing, as foolish, drunken Russians, and so let
our "wise" Anglo-Saxon fools find out the folly of their own pride.
Again, the American public has taken
this with barely a whimper...but a "free man" whimper.
So, should it be any surprise to
discover that the Democratically controlled Congress of America is
working on passing a new regulation that would give the American
Treasury department the power to set "fair" maximum salaries, evaluate
performance, and control how private companies give out pay raises and
bonuses? Senator Barney Frank, a social pervert basking in his
homosexuality (of course, amongst the modern, enlightened American
societal norm, as well as that of the general West, homosexuality is not
only not a looked down upon life choice, but is often praised as a
virtue) and his Marxist enlightenment, has led this effort. He stresses
that this only affects companies that receive government monies, but it
is retroactive and taken to a logical extreme, this would include any
company or industry that has ever received a tax break or incentive.
The Russian owners of American
companies and industries should look thoughtfully at this and the option
of closing their facilities down and fleeing the land of the Red as fast
as possible. In other words, divest while there is still value left.
The proud American will go down into
his slavery without a fight, beating his chest, and proclaiming to the
world, how free he really is. The world will only snicker.
