Barack Obama: The Man Behind the Mask

Those on the right in this country do not believe in runaway Keynesian spending, do not believe in expansion of government, do not believe in wealth redistribution through any means other than increased GDP and opportunity, do not promote an ever expanding welfare state, do not believe government should have increased powers, do not believe in expansion of entitlements, do not believe in downgraded credit ratings, do not approve kicking the can in the form of crushing debt and obligations on down the road for their children and grandchildren to deal with.

It doesn't matter whether he has an R or a D or any other label beside his, name, that fact that Barack Obama DOES believe in all these things, and has actively promoted them, is what makes him a far leftist and also holding Marxist principles.

In 2008, before the election, in a series of four essays, Thomas Sowell did his damndest to warn us about what we were getting with Barack Obama. The author of the essay in the OP only confirmed Sowell's wisdom back then:

As I have shown, the author of the OP is a liar, therefore he has only confirmed that Tom is dishonest. Dishonesty is not "wisdom."
 
Anyone who actually believes that Obama is a communist or a Marxist is too stupid to be one person. The man is the most right wing conservative Democratic President in US history. He's further to the right than Nixon or Eisenhauer.

The Republicans have been in thrall to the Milton Friedman and the Chicago School of Economics and their radical free-market capitalist theories, hence the vilification of anyone who proposes a publically funded social program as a "Marxist" and a "communist". Friedman believed that ANY social program is a distortion of the free market and the GOP has been selling these ideas to their base and the public at large relentlessly for the last 35 years. But Friedman's theories were exactly that: theories that had never been put into practice before Pinochet's Chile.

Long term, this kind of free market capitalism exploits workers in economies with no social safety net, no union protects, and no government protections (see China, Chile, Brazil) in favour of large multi-national corporations. Worker opposition to poor working conditions, or attempts to unionize or otherwise promote worker rights is countered with "re-education" programs, or the troublemakers are "disappeared" (see all of South America in the 70's).

None of radically free market reformed economies (Russia, China, Chile, Brazil or South Africa) have resulted in health, vibrant economies. None. All have resulted in high prices, volatile markets, high unemployment, and a struggling middle class. And the wealthy multi-nationals, and political elites bought up all of the publically owned assets at firesale prices and got rich. All of these countries were forced to accept free market reforms in exchange for assistance from the World Bank and the IMF and successive Republican administrations, and during Clinton's administration as well.

The right wingers here keep talking about the Obama wanting to transfer all of other people's money to the poor. The vilify the poor as "takers", social programs as communism, unions as the source of all communist evil, and Obama as a Marxist and a socialist, because these are the only protections the United States has against the Republicans turning the US economy into another Brazil, or Chile.

9 Out Of 10 Americans Are Completely Wrong About This Mind-Blowing Fact

Wow! Stupidity on display. A perfect example of Rush Limbaugh's "low information" voter.

No, you idiot, THIS is the information that Rush is obstructing with his right wing rants about birthers and sluts. No voter in his right mind will go for the results of a full on Chicago School reformation of the economy because of the pain it brings everyone but the wealthy. So they cover it all up with cries of "communism" and "Marxism" the same way that Christian Evangelicals revile the sins and the sinners.

Right wingers are told to demonize those who rely on social assistance because they're sappping the life blood of the working folks. But really they aren't the ones that are doing it. It the results of Friedman Free Market economics. It's meant to wipe out the poor and middle class and make the rich even richer. And you don't even know it's happening because you're too busy worrying about the "communist" in the White House.
