Under Obama Has the United States Become a Quasi-Communist Country?

Has the United States become a quasi-Communist country under the manipulation of Pres. Barack Obama and the Democrat party?  It appears so.

Obama – who never ran anything even as complex as a popcorn stand – has now established the largest Communist enterprise in the history of the world. 

Even Pres. Bill Clinton acknowledges this fundamental transformation – and is pledging that Hillary, as the next president, will perpetuate Obama’s Communist revolution.

This transformation of the American Way* started with the election of Obama and his expansion of government entitlements – now climaxing with the implementation of the Affordable Care Act, otherwise known as ObamaCare.

ObamaCare became the 2400 page, law-of-the-land – with the President’s and Democrat Congress’s forced approval – which virtually no one read and no one understood. Instead of solving the real problem of healthcare for the poor, Obama and his colleagues used it to impose their quasi-Communistic system of centralized, authoritarian government on the American people. Obama claimed his election in 2008  – and the Democrat control of Congress – gave them the endorsement required to radically transform the traditional American Way*.

With the exception of the privileged few, e.g.,  Obama and his family, his Administration, Congress, the very rich, big corporations, big unions, etc. , ObamaCare is mandated for everyone.  Our children and healthy Americans are now required to pay for this scheme in typical Communist fashion – by forcing them to purchase healthcare insurance that many cannot afford and/or do not want, or by paying a fine for non-compliance.

Of course, ObamaCare will eventually lead to a single-payer system – the ultimate Communist strategy for securing the centralized power and control of the federal government over the lives of the American people. Like Hitler, Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Castro and other quasi-Communists – Obama and the Democrats are employing a similar strategy.

Unfortunately, the majority of the American people are not cognizant of what is really happening to the American Republic and to our Free-Market, Competitive, Free-Enterprise System.  They do not understand the adverse consequences of a quasi-Communist, Marxist/Socialist centralized government takeover.

*THE AMERICAN WAY
History has clearly demonstrated that the keys to a flourishing economy; plentiful, good-paying jobs; and individual prosperity for the greatest number . . . is a competitive, cooperative, free-market, free-enterprise, balanced-trade, entrepreneurial, innovative, personal-initiative, profit-motivated, moral, law-and-order, low-tax, decentralized economic and political system . . . where private companies and enterprises exist, and people freely produce, to meet the needs, wants and expectations of their customers, clients, employees, suppliers, communities, creditors, shareholders, and future generations − in that order of priority.  And this must be accomplished at a price/cost ratio sufficient to support the ongoing and balanced needs of their free-enterprises and their suppliers . . . and adequate to provide investors and creditors with an attractive return on their invested capital . . . and sufficient to offset the implicit risk of supporting the financial needs of businesses and their stakeholders.

Free market, competitive, Constitutional Capitalism is a time-proven economic and political system that benefits the greatest number. . . based on freedom, natural law, and the private ownership of the means of production and distribution of goods . . . characterized by free, competitive markets, motivation-by-profit, and safety nets for those who cannot care for themselves.

In a Marxist/Socialist oriented economy, many of these functions and forces are taken over by centralized, government elites, bureaucrats, and complacent job-fillers, who can’t possibly provide the collective wisdom, experience and motivation of liberated businesspersons, entrepreneurs, innovators, and workers . . . producing in a competitive, cooperative, free-market, free-enterprise, low-tax, private-property, “sky’s-the-limit”, financially-responsible, Constitutional, Capitalistic economy.
