Socialism is being marketed to young people as kind, selfless, and community-focused. Like most marketing, that is not really true. It is an ideology of promises. Its performance is far different than its marketing.

Irony Alert: Socialism Will Save Traditions and Values from the Effects of Climate Change
If you didn’t read past the beginning of this amazing piece of speculation, “Climate change is a disability rights issue,” you’d think they meant people in wheelchairs. Not exactly. But they are serious about their work and also entirely immune to the irony.
Socialist at Work – Alexandria Ocasio Cortez Gets an Entire Solar Companies Workforce Fired
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is what we call (facetiously) an economic genius. She almost single-handedly cost NYC million of dollars and thousands of jobs by agitating against Amazon HQ2. But she wasn’t done. She just got an entire Company fired.
Notable Quote – Cluelessness of Bernie Sanders
A special edition for Bruce Currie – our loyal opposition here at GraniteGrok and self-admitted Berni-Bro: “I’m disgusted by the idea that Michael Bloomberg or any other billionaire thinks they can circumvent the political process and spend tens of millions of dollars to buy our elections. It’s just the latest example of a rigged political … Read more
Preaching the Christian Gospel in Public Labeled Hate Speech
The war on Judeo-Christian faith, like the war on families and marriage, is about knocking down barriers to Marxism. I articulated it well enough here, so I won’t repeat those points. But they apply to this topic. A pastor has been charged with hate speech for preaching near homosexuals.
Is Elizabeth Warren’s Strength her Biggest Weakness? And Can It take The Democrat Party Down with Her
Even if you hate the New England Patriots, they do one thing well. Each week they focus on neutralizing their opponent’s biggest strength. Liz Warren thinks her biggest strength is planning. She has plans. But could it also be her biggest weakness?
It’s a Global Tea Party! Tax Revolts Worldwide
It’s a Global Tea Party! Tax Revolts Worldwide Chile: Government raised subway fares – riots ensue. Iran: religious dictators triple the price of gas – now mullahs have riots on their bloody hands as well as a crashing economy.
Like I have been saying for years…
Socialism arrived on our shores because of American “scholars” that wanted to show others that they were smarter than our Founders… …in that putting the State above Individuals was such a hot idea. Problem is, its a REGRESSIVE idea; its been the manner and worldview of totalitarianism for since time began – the small elite … Read more
Millionaire Liz Warren’s Snarky Socialist Coffee Mug is Making a Billionaire Richer
If Socialists understood economics, they wouldn’t be socialists. I forgot who said that, but it wasn’t Liz Warren. The Multi-Millionaire candidate is charging $25.00 for a mug. The mug is printed with the phrase ‘Billionaire Tears.’ They must be tears of joy (to quote the Daily Caller).
If Socialism is the Cure are Prosperity and Freedom the Disease?
The Fraser Institute recently released its annual study “Economic Freedom of the World.” The report is prepared by professors James Gwartney of Florida State University; Robert A. Lawson and Ryan Murphy of Southern Methodist University; and Joshua Hall of West Virginia University.
Why is it that Democrats all want to “change” us? Why can’t they just leave us alone?
We’ve heard this before: “We are five days from fundamentally transforming America“. Yeah, then President-elect Obama. And now, Comrade Sanders is now making it quite clear that he hates America as well – and our values.
Sure it’s all free! The only small, little cost is that dinky liberty thingy. But everything else will be free.
Just like any Hobbesian state, Socialism will give you everything it believes you should have for free… …except your soul. But the Socialist Democrats, who are naming one thing after another that they will give you for free, are COUNTING on the fact that the most valuable thing will just be taken from you – … Read more
Bernie’s Immigration Plan: Making America Not Matter Any More
Socialist Bernie Sanders Immigration plan went live this week and it’s everything you’d expect from someone who hates America. We might as well erase the borders and let the globalists run the joint.
It’s a Curious Question – Do You Know the Answer? I think I do!
It has long been our policy to come to the aid of women. Even those taken in by a party (the Democrats) that goes out of its way to kill them before they can take a breath or just after (abortion), puts them at risk (anti-gun and bathroom bills), and denies them victory (men playing women’s sports).
Joe Manchin, D-WV, Would ‘Absolutely Not’ Support Bernie
Senator Bernie Sanders, candidate for President under the Democrat banner, said in an interview with CNBC that Joe Manchin would support his socialist agenda.

Who Said, Democrats are “fighting about a lot of things that most people can’t understand”
It’s time for another lesson from Democrats who think we can’t understand them because they’re so smart. And you won’t believe who is teaching today’s lesson.
AOC – Take Control of Your Life…By Giving Government Control of Everything
It doesn’t get much more communist than this — Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez reading scripture and verse, or close enough, from the Soviet Indoctrination Guidebook. To be truly free you must let the government take over everything.
von Mises vs Marx: “Freedom” vs “Total Control”
Me: “Let me decide for myself.” Bernie-Bros (and the rest of the current den of Democrat Prez Wannabees: “We’ll decide from on high because you’re too stupid”. Freedom vs enforced “equality”. Self-interest vs Faux Moral Superiority. Individualism vs serfdom. How will you vote? Me? With Mises: (H/T: Cafe Hayek)
The Democrat, a.k.a. the Socialist Debate
The Democrat, a.k.a. the Socialist debate is commonsensically challenged. Bernie says, “… When you have half a million Americans sleeping out on the streets today… and then you also have three people who own more wealth than the bottom half of American society… That is a moral and economic outrage… So, if you are asking … Read more
