The ACORN Candidate

A president often belittled in the press, not unlike G.H. or G. W. Bush had this to say about communism....

"How do you tell a Communist? Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It's someone who understands Marx and Lenin."

Ronald Reagan

This is an important point, because the community organizer running that is running for president, has by is affiliations to ACORN and likewise, has proven his preference for socialism. Socialism like communism is system that leads to depressed productivity, increased taxation, increased government regulation and a constriction of personal rights. The relevance of the quote is that proponents of these philosophies concentrate on the sales pitch to the constituents that have their hands out, there is little care or commitment to how these promises are delivered. Tax increases on capital gains will dampen investment. Forcing insurance companies to cover increases in cost without conveyance to the customers will bankrupt those companies much the way Barney Frank's crowd cajoled and coerced the banks into making sub-prime loans. Mandatory civil service will restrict the freedom of citizens. The examples are many.
