Creeping Socialism

As with every campaign since the 1920's, any move to extend power to the people has been labeled "creeping socialism", but what does that mean? First of all it was one of the first "fear cards", after the Russian Revolution it was used to dissuade people from considering any socially progressive programs for it would lead to the downfall of the US. Utter bullsh*t!

The term "creeping socialism" was first used by Pres. Hoover in a speech. He was referring to domestic programs like the TVA, which was taken from the private sector and controlled by the government. He stated that this removal of programs from private enterprise would lead to the socialized state.

I bring this all up because of people that compare any social program offered by dems as somehow a move toward socialism. It is all total crap! The major candidates are capitalist and will always be capitalist and they would do NOTHING to jeopardize the strangle hold of capitalism on the country. So please shut the f*ck up!
