Subsidize... I hate the way it is being used by the Government. It makes the Democrat's eye sparkle and the moderate Republican intrigued. It has also been known to turn heads and directions of the so-called conservative Republican. Subsidy is our tax going to the under-productive, only to encourage them to be less productive. Government grows when we allow them to steal from all to give to the Lobbyists employers. Farmers have bad times. We all do... Why are we paying millions to someone just so they don't grow anything? The results of liberal policy have been known to result in the exact opposite of the stated intent.

Hollywood decadence revealed by Big Hollywood

"[Left-leaning Hollywood personalities] are uninteresting, they’re vicious, they’re vitriolic, they’re really, really not good people. I’m willing to say that on the record. You could probe them scientifically and anthropologically and prove that they’re not good people....[The Hollywood left] is a stale group of people who are recycling the same old bad ideas that don’t work. Why else would those people go to the stinky side?"

Corporatism confused with Fascism

Russia and America: Turning the World Upside Down

A little over a year ago, a columnist for the newspaper that once served as the official communications organ of the Central Committee of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) had some choice words for what remains of America’s free market economy.

“Like the breaking of a great dam, the American descent into Marxism is happening with breathtaking speed,” the columnist wrote. “The final collapse has come with the election of Barack Obama.”

His prediction for the future?

“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,” he continued. “The world will only snicker.”

As difficult as it may be to believe, that column appeared last April in Pravda – and a year later its chilling premonition has taken another step towards reality with the passage of Obama’s socialized medicine plan. Meanwhile in the former Soviet Union, things are moving in the opposite direction as health care reforms are currently being proposed with the aim of undoing decades of communist micromanagement.

Has someone turned the world upside down? Is a failed former socialist state really adopting limited free market reforms? And even less fathomable: Is a nation that was conceived in liberty – one that rode the free market to unprecedented wealth creation and an unrivaled standard of living – now adopting the failed ideology of the very nation it vanquished in a global struggle for freedom?

Amazingly, the answer to both questions is “yes.”

According to the Moscow Times, the Russian Duma is currently considering a health care reform bill that “adopts a laissez-faire approach instead of a micromanagement one.” Legislation is also being debated that would force certain hospitals to either start turning a profit or be shut down.

“While Washington plans to pump unprecedented sums into what critics call a government takeover of health care, Moscow is moving in the opposite direction by backing legislation that could force hospitals and other public institutions to go commercial or close,” the Times report notes.

Ron Paul accurately deems the terminology for President Obama's political structure

...the President and his defenders can easily deflect that charge(socialist) by pointing out that the historical meaning of socialism is government ownership of industry; under the President's policies, industry remains in nominally private hands. Using the more accurate term -- corporatism -- forces the President to defend his policies that increase government control of private industries and expand de facto subsidies to big businesses. This also promotes the understanding that though the current system may not be pure socialism, neither is it free-market since government controls the private sector through taxes, regulations, and subsidies, and has done so for decades.

Using precise terms can prevent future statists from successfully blaming the inevitable failure of their programs on the remnants of the free market that are still allowed to exist. We must not allow the disastrous results of corporatism to be ascribed incorrectly to free market capitalism or used as a justification for more government expansion. Most importantly, we must learn what freedom really is and educate others on how infringements on our economic liberties caused our economic woes in the first place. Government is the problem; it cannot be the solution.

Companies Finally Have a Voice

Corporations are more negatively affected by more laws that the lawmakers in Washington write than they should be. There are more restrictions and limits in the regulations placed upon them. They deserve a voice. Some Anti-Americans think that: Congress is God; Every law is just; We all should hate those who make large amounts of money.
I don't think that way, and neither do most of my friends. America was inspired when we were first formed well over 200 years ago. Inspired by our God to break free from tyranny and oppression. We have no business causing or allowing tyranny and oppression upon any person or entity in our nation, without a government accomplice.
Our Constitution was designed to limit the power and scope of government. Now it is hard to find people in our society that think it would be a good thing for government federal and local to shrink to it's rightful place and size.

We Must Get More Informed

I'm the luckiest man in the world and I understand what that really means. I'm the luckiest man in the world because in the last two or three years, I have been doing my homework and I have been reading things like I've begged you the read The Forgotten Man, Liberal Fascism, the Woodrow Wilson stuff. I know what all of this language means and it is absolutely amazing to me. Negative liberties, that the Constitution is a charter of negative liberties. In other words, we're not going to take your guns, we're not going to take your speech. This is what the Progressive movement tried to do under FDR. They want to get rid of those things and tell you what they will do for you. Universal housing, universal health-care, universal jobs. This is a fundamental change. This destroys the work of the founding fathers. This takes us from a small government to an oppressive government.
