The Government You Want

In the last week, the foundation principles of the Black Lives Matter (BLM) leadership has been confirmed and revealed as Marxist. Marxism is universally recognized as a euphemism for communism. Citizens of the United States have the right choose and practice whichever ideology they agree with. Unfortunately, in the United States, there is a significant amount of intentional obfuscation by the embedded Marxists within our social and political groups. Under the guise of social activism these Marxists piggyback upon the emotional flare-ups rooted in injustice, perceived or otherwise. The purpose is to generate devolution, a deconstruction of social behavior, an impugning of the rule of law, and some physical demolition for effect. The purpose is simple enough, create a environment of chaos, within which the leadership can be more easily replaced.

The situation in Hong Kong is a little different but certainly a condition through which the United States is headed. A free and prosperous society, government has changed, from a rights guaranteed model to a Marxists model. In this case not by surreptitious devolution, but by and international treaty. Initially the communists allowed the citizens of Hong Kong to proceed as is for a few years, but now have begun to assert positive control over freedom of speech.

On British based site DailyMail article titled China boasts it holds 'a sword over lawbreakers' heads' after passing Hong Kong security law as campaigners warn it is 'the end of the city as we know it', describes how the Chinese nationalists have begun to crack down on freedom of speech in Hong Kong. Protesters have been imprisoned for carrying flags promoting independence for the formerly free and capitalist centric city-state. People have been imprisoned for leading protest rallies. Mind you that from the viseo I have seen, these protests have been controlled, subdued and even silent. The communist government does tolerate dissent.

Tying this back to the United States, in the last century communist countries have demonstrably failed. They have..... 

• Imprisoned millions, in forced labor camps 
• Killed hundreds of millions of citizens, by summary execution, force hard labor and starvation, far more than the Nazis of World War II and the Holocaust.
• Frozen and retarded economic growth in previously burgeoning countries such as Cuba and Venezuela. 
• Obliterated political party systems.
• Erased rights to keep and bear arms.
• Erased rights to private property.
• Erased right to free speech.
• Erased right to exercise religion.

They get to the condition by obfuscation, then drop the hammer.

A common argument for communism is that it removes the greed, it does not, Milton Friedman pointed out that all systems have greed. In a communist system, the greed is centered on power, those in control have whatever they desire, everyone else is poor or crimnal. 

The result of The Government You Want is a simple caste system of social stratification, if you ain't part of the leadership, you'll be poor.
