[quote:Anonymous Coward 1379065:MV8yMDA2MDQ5XzMzNzA1NTkzX0E2RDZCODY=] [quote:jcab2002:MV8yMDA2MDQ5XzMzNzA1NTUyX0QxREYxNDFD] This is nothing close to socialism. Big business and banks run this country. In socialism, they're owned by the people. We have the opposite of socialism - fascism. [/quote] get your head out of the clouds. the people will never own shit. but they can be controlled and their actions dictated by the government..and that is what socialism is [b]in practice[/b].

That is a big topic on which much can be said. The U.S. has dabbled in National Socialism before; elements of Roosevelt’s New Deal emulated Mussolini’s policies, and were implemented by men who made no secret of their admiration for Il Duce. But it has been a long time since anyone has seriously tried to turn the United States in a National Socialist direction.
Which is what Barack Obama seems to be doing. Consider his 983 executive orders, compared with George W. Bush’s 63. Or his extra-constitutional czars; or his illegal cramdown of bondholders in auto bankruptcies; or the explosion in warrantless wiretaps and the even greater explosion in federal regulations; or his “green energy” scams to distort the economy and enrich political cronies; or the recent revelation that the Obama family costs U.S. taxpayers something like twenty times what the British Royal Family costs its subjects. Or, more important, consider Obamacare, a classic top-down National Socialist program.
