OK, here goes, from his/her own definition.......
1. Social security........yep, ponzi socialist scheme going broke.
2. Med and Med........Socialist ponzi scheme going broke.
3. Post Office..............in the red, just like Socialism, going broke.
4. Public Schools.........are so good and Socialist, the employees won't allow vouchers of choice for small children, or they would go broke. Can't survive with competition.
5. Libraries.........and what do they have in there, encyclopedia Britannica you can get online? Don't know if they are going broke, but in todays day and age, are useless, just like everything Socialist.
6. Water Treatment.........this is government services needed regardless of what kind of system you have. If you want to claim it is Socialist, then I say, look at Michigan-)
7. 8. Recreational centers, National Parks..............would be funded by charities better, and would then actually have better services. Gyms? Are you saying they are non-profit and a businessperson opens them just to be nice? You are seriously kidding.
9. Public transit. Always losing money and need a cash infusion. In most big cities, it is where you are most likely robbed. Lefties like them to save the planet mantra, but they mostly stink. Typical, socialist, claptrap. Also, in most cities, the biggest corruption leader.
10. Police and Firefighters. They to are government services, needed no matter what system you are under. But of course, the left is always messing with the police, telling them they are evil.
11. Military. That is funny, lol. Go up to a service man or woman and tell them they are a socialist, or belong to a socialist group, then come back, and let us know how long you were in the hospital..........which of course, you claim is Socialist too.
12. Labor protection. Now you know why everyone with a company is fleeing America. Thanks Socialists.
13. Food and Drug. FOOD-----> bang up job there, been watching the news lately on everyone getting sick at restaurants? DRUG-----> many countries are using the drugs WE developed to cure their people, and here we sit waiting for the red tape to clear. Typical socialist system.
14. EPA. Has taken over for congress, a bunch of unelected officials, who are not doing it for the enviroment, they are doing it for SOCIALISM. They are by far, the worst agency in the government, even worse than the IRS.
15 Financial regulations. Agreed! If it weren't for them and their regs, there never would have been a housing crisis and economic collapse. Socialism gave us the collapse by demanding loans to people who could not pay them back.
16. Transportation/safety regulations. Yep, agreed. Were it NOT for the Socialist CAFE standards, many of our friends, relatives, and neighbors would still be alive as they forced autos to shrink into tin cans.
17. Housing regulations. How many inspectors have contractors bought off? Want links, lol. Yep, good idea, but as usual the people put in charge line their pockets. SOCIALISM at its finest.
18. Energy regulations. You mean like the watchful eye they had on Enron, or are you talking about something else entirely? Rolling blackouts, lol.........when they had plenty of power. Bang up job Socialism did there, wouldn't you say!
19. Veterans protection/benefits. You really want to talk about that? Maybe you should listen to the debates to see what a bang up job that bastion of SOCIALISM is doing.
20. Homeland security. Thought they were private firms? Oh wait, I know, aren't those the people who convinced everyone to check little old ladies and kids instead of someone screaming Allah Akbar?
And you know what is evident in ALL of his examples? It is a FORCED contribution to support these entities, and when you discover they are stinking it out, you can't fire anyone because they are protected by a SOCIALIST, PUBLIC SECTOR, UNION! Hell, many municipalities are going with private garbage collection to escape these people.
Since NASA is gone, we will just put the military on the side with it. OK people, name me an agency of the Federal government that YOU think is doing a bang-up job! Post office anyone? Veterans administration? Medicare being constantly scammed? Social Security being scammed? Education department, lol? Obamacare administration? (whomever takes care of that) State department?
This is OUR future, this is SOCIALISM if we allow the Democrats to have their way! Your taxes will go up, and your services will go down.
