Communism on The Menu as America Goes to the Polls

As an election year progresses in a revitalized America, it’s amazing to see the old communist curmudgeon, Bernie Sanders, take the lead in the Democratic primary contest to choose who will take on President Trump in the November general election.

The attempt by Sanders to hide his communist affiliation by labeling himself as a democratic socialist is fooling nobody except the brainwashed and the intellectually challenged who are seduced by the promise of ‘free stuff’ financed by money confiscated from the evil rich.

It seems like only yesterday that Bernie Sanders was leading in the 2016 Democratic Party race with the same message of replacing the wealth creating system of free enterprise with a communist system which he portrayed as benign and morally superior because it would supposedly abolish poverty and inequality.

Despite the ongoing coup attempt to remove him from office, President Trump has halted the managed decline of America into a third world country and reinvigorated the economy by returning to basic free enterprise principles of cutting regulations and lowering taxes.

Other notable achievements include renegotiating disastrous trade deals that disadvantaged the American worker and rebuilding the country’s infrastructure and deliberately downgraded military.

By contrast, in the three years since President Trump started to return America to its capitalist roots and subsequent prosperity resource rich Venezuela has descended into poverty, starvation and bloodshed as a result of the economic and political system Bernie Sanders wants to impose on the American people.

This is the same economic and political system that has caused poverty, starvation, hunger and tyranny not only in Venezuela but in Cuba, North Korea, China and elsewhere across the planet as well as costing the lives of tens of millions of ordinary citizens.

During the highly choreographed primary election debates the facilitators, along with the bought-and-paid-for mainstream media propagandists, never interrogated Bernie Sanders or the other candidates about the disastrous consequences their proposed socialist economic system has had on the people of those blighted countries.

There’s a long way to go before the Democrats choose who to put in the ring with President Trump and it is unlikely to be Bernie Sanders. He was rigged out of the nomination in 2016 by supporters of Hillary Clinton and will most likely be again despite his support among the young and the ideologues who share his hate for free enterprise and the United States of America.

To conclude: For the young, the intellectually challenged and those who were asleep during the 2016 election campaign it is worth re-issuing some of the articles from that time to remind them of what Bernie Sanders, the Democratic Party, Antifa, the United Nations, Hollywood celebrities and the enemies of free enterprise and liberty want America to become.

Fidel Castro Pops His Clogs - Now He's A Good Commie

As Cuban dictator, Fidel Castro, changes his status from earth bound blood-soaked tyrant to hell bound unmourned cadaver, only members of the western global elite and their useful idiots appear to be sad at his passing. All it needs now is for the Pope and the Archbishop of Canterbury to put in a good word and he can truly be absolved of his crimes to rest in eternal peace.

This was an ideal opportunity for western leaders and the UN /EU axis to condemn Castro and all his works along with all the other blood soaked tyrants and human rights abusers that still infest the planet murdering and oppressing millions of people who bravely oppose their tyranny.

For the supposed leader of the free world, President Obama was less than forthcoming with any criticism of Castro's appalling human rights record while the socialist President of France, Francoise Hollande, was positively glowing at the tyrants contribution to history.

Equally glowing was the far left leader of Great Britain's once noble Labour Party, Jeremy Corbyn, who reduced his hero's penchant for incarceration, torture and murder of tens of thousands of innocent Cubans to excusable 'flaws'.

Jeremy Corbyn, and fellow members of the Labour movement,hailed their hero's abolition of inequality, the creation of a national health service and improved literacy standards as Castro's signature achievement's; they failed to mention however the torture chambers, show trials or the firing squads he used to impose his will.

In the real world, abolishing inequality in Cuba means everyone except the ruling elite being equally poor, a national health service for the poor consisting of understaffed, filthy hospitals and improved literacy standards meaning cab drivers, shoeshine boys and beggars that can read the state controlled press and incessant government propaganda. They are unable to use their high literacy standards to read news on the Internet because it's not allowed by the tyrant's decree.

It would appear that only the President elect of the USA and next leader of the free world, Donald Trump, spoke of the true nature of Castro and his murderous regime expressing hope for a future Cuba free from tyranny and oppression.

The past decade or so has seen a number of old communist tyrants shuffle off their mortal coils leaving trails of economic and social devastation in their wake, not to mention appalling human rights abuses of the most grievous kind.

With his passing in December 2013, Saint Nelson Mandela, leader of the communist African National Congress, became a good commie who managed during his Presidency to reduce South Africa's powerhouse economy to rubble leaving the so called Rainbow Nation poverty stricken and wracked with internecine tribal and xenophobic violence.

Communist North Korea's Kim Jong-il departed earth leaving his country nuclear armed but with it's citizens eating grass and each other to ward off hunger during their endless famine. His son and heir Kim Jong-un expanded the concentration camp system and appears to take great pleasure killing his uncles and other relatives who he perceives to be his enemies.

Fidel Castro's good friend and comrade, Hugo Chavez - the celebrities favorite blood-soaked tyrant - became a good commie after dying and leaving resource rich Venezuela destitute with it's citizens reduced to scavenging garbage heaps for food. He famously left them with shortages not only of food but basic commodities such as condoms and toilet paper.

Some wit opined that 'the road to socialism in Venezuela is paved with unwanted babies and unwiped a*ses'.

Castro was instrumental in spreading his communist revolution abroad, most notably in Angola and Nicaragua where oppressive regimes are still stifling economic progress and prosperity for the masses  to this day while at the same time oppressing and abusing human rights in the same time honored communist fashion.

Fidel Castro installed Comrade Augustino Neto in Angola who became a good commie in 1979. He died after wrecking the oil rich economy and enriching himself. His successor Jose Eduardo dos Santos is still President today after thirty-seven years despite being limited to two terms in office.

Castro's favorite son, Daniel Ortega of Nicaragua, is back in power wreaking the usual havoc in Central America causing an exodus of the Nicaraguan and Salvadorian people to the Great Capitalist Satan located to the North.

The world is a better place now Fidel Castro has gone to meet his Maker but communist dictators of his ilk, including his brother Raul, still stubbornly remain in power in places such as China, North Korea, Zimbabwe, Angola, Central and South American countries and off course the European Union to name but a few.

More worrying is the plethora of ruthlessly dedicated aspiring communist politicians who, using false names such as democratic socialist, liberal, or progressive, plot endlessly to achieve power in order to impose the same Marxist theology that destroyed Cuba onto the western democracies.

The aforementioned Jeremy Corbyn in Great Britain is a classic example along with Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders in the USA, Martin Schulz, Donald Tusk and Jean-Claude Junker in the European Union and a whole host of unnamed agents and operatives in the United Nations de facto world government which is insidiously accumulating power using treaties to bypass national legislatures.

Freedom loving people around the world must remain vigilant at all times because the enemies of freedom will never cease their pursuit of power in order to impose their will and their perverted ideology onto them and their posterity.


   

Obama, Socialism And The Unlearned Lessons Of Castro's Revolution

Personally I have never subscribed to the view that socialists/progressives are afflicted by some kind of mental illness; I have always put their blind obedience to a failed ideology down to immaturity, delayed adolescence or a lack of normal intellectual abilities. Judging by the fact that they are surrounded by a mountainous amount of incontrovertible evidence, I may have to reassess my attitude.

Even historical facts fail to convince supposedly intelligent people that the continuous, abject failure of their socialist/progressive ideology is an aberration and a stain on humanity.

It's almost as if the blood soaked historical disasters of Russia, China, and Eastern Europe never happened; they ignore the fact the one of the biggest state controlled disasters in history was perpetrated by the National Socialist German Workers Party, who's core belief was that the state was supreme and all individuals are subservient to it.

Socialist/progressives have the ability to turn a blind eye to the disasters that surround them in todays world. From North Korea in the far east to Zimbabwe in southern Africa, socialism is wreaking its own peculiar form of devastation on countless millions of people but still they promote its deadly virtues.

As one of the privileged few who get to spend time in both Great Britain and America, I am in a unique position of being able to watch the disaster which ruined my own country slowly unfold in the United States. Experience dictates that average American citizens are an insular people who do not pay particular attention to events in far away countries, including those of Europe.

They will be mainly unaware of the economic disaster unfolding in France as their socialist/progressive President imposes the usual "tax the productive sector" and "expand the unproductive sector" economic policy, as if it's unique and has never been done before.

They will be unaware that the socialist/progressive policies of tax and spend has ruined the economies of Greece, Ireland, Spain and Portugal.

They will also be unaware that the government of Cyprus, in good socialist fashion, over leveraged itself and spent the country into oblivion. This resulted in the politicians seizing money from private bank accounts in order to get themselves out of the trouble their ideology had caused.

There are socialist disasters closer to the American homeland such as Bolivia and Venezuela where socialist/progressive inefficiency has managed to engineer a shortage of everything, including toilet paper. If these disasters are too far away then just ninety miles or so off their eastern coast lies Cuba.

The fundamental decency of the ordinary American was used against them by a well oiled political machine, together with a compliant agenda driven media, when they were seduced into electing one of the biggest phony's in the history of politics. (Tony Blair being the biggest).

Barack Obama is the ultimate manufactured, machine politician, he has no history and no experience in the real world of business, industry or wealth creation. From what little there is known of his history one can gather that he has no experience outside of Marxist professors and radical racial politics. According to some reports he spent so much time with his bong, he has no experience outside of cloud nine.

Barry O. is a socialist/progressive of the old school and he is ignoring the lessons of history that has reduced a Caribbean Island just ninety miles off its shores into an impoverished, starving, blood soaked tyranny. The plight of the thousands of bedraggled people risking their lives in rickety boats to flee this socialist hell hole is obviously lost on him.

At this point I will ask indulgence and share an anecdote.

In my teenage days, before I grew up, I was a fully paid up member of the brain dead hard left and I made the mistake of extolling the virtues of the Castro regime, Che Guavara et al, at a social gathering. A quiet English gentleman, who was not going to let my views go unchallenged, proceeded to enlighten the gathered company with the benefit of his perception of the Castro revolution.

He related the story (which I cannot verify), that prior to revolution, sugar was the main cash crop and the biggest revenue earner for the government. Plantation workers were paid by how much they produced. This practice was widespread in Great Britain and was known as piece work.

One worker, Alberto was married with six kids and lived in a small cabin on a plantation. He would arrive at work and cut cane at his leisure taking a mid morning break, an afternoon siesta, a mid afternoon break and stopped off at the cantina on his way home. He was happy with his lot in life and earned 250 Pesos per day.

Another worker, Mario, married with two kids, lived in a cabin that he had extended himself. He sent his older kid to school in the hope he would have a better life. Mario would arrive at work early and cut cane continuously, taking only a small water break when necessary and enough time to eat his burrito for lunch. He would work until sundown and go straight home. Mario was not happy with his lot in life and was prepared to do what he could to improve it. His efforts earned him 1000 Pesos per day.

After the revolution, Castro nationalized the sugar industry and in line with his ideology he made everyone equal by paying a salary of 500 Pesos per day. Alberto was overjoyed and praised the revolution; Mario was not so impressed and reduced his efforts compatible with to those of Alberto.

The sugar industry went into a downward spiral, government revenues collapsed and Castro was unable to finance his welfare state. The story goes that Castro was unable to understand the reason why, after making everyone equal, his revenues had collapsed and his revolution had stalled.

He summoned a meeting of his politburo and demanded an explanation, his fellow revolutionaries knew the reason but none had the courage to tell him for fear of being shot for counter revolutionary sentiments.

To the relief of the politburo, the Russians, seeing an opportunity to have a client state just ninety miles from the USA, came to the rescue, bailed them out and the rest is history.

The gentleman's quiet explanation and delivery held the company spellbound ,making my revolutionary zeal appear unreasoned drivel, driven by a juvenile adherence to ideology instead of facts.

Barry O continues to repeat the very same mistakes that were made by Cuba's Castro, North Korea's Kim Jong Un, Zimbabwe's Robert Mugabe, France's  Francois Hollande and Venezuela's Hugo Chavez, among others.

Learning nothing from Castro's Cuba, he has taken over one sixth of the entire American economy by nationalizing healthcare, he has indicated that his signature legislation this coming year will be erasing income inequality and being of a dictatorial disposition he has stated quite openly that if Congress refuses to ratify what he does, he will rule by presidential decree.

The American people can look forward to high taxes and a wrecked economy coupled with a more dictatorial regime as economic failure stalls his construction of a socialist welfare state.

The American dream is dying before our very eyes and will be dead and buried in the near future unless this socialist throwback is stopped.

Either he is blinded by his ideology to the point where he cannot envisage any other political system or he is incapable of learning the lessons that has resulted in devastation for a whole island people just ninety miles off his eastern shore.

When the consequences of Barry O's ignorance of history translate into shortages, power cuts and empty shelves, the American people should learn from the people of Venezuela and in addition to stocking up on food and ammunition, they should stock up on toilet paper as well.

P.S. Please note that the peso figures are nominal due to the fact that the story was told many years ago, and I cannot remember the exact numbers today.

Dai Havard MP - Managing Depravation For Votes

It goes without saying that the people of industrial South Wales and of Merthyr Tydfil in particular have a spectacular and noble history. Hardened by the brutal conditions of the Industrial Revolution their fighting spirit and endurance was at the forefront of the battle for political and social reform throughout the British Isles.

Although church attendance had decreased when I was growing up in South Wales during the 1950's people still had principles and a moral code based on Christian ethics. People had dignity, they wanted to work, accepting welfare was a last resort, an embarrassment that was sometimes refused.

Attitudes in  today's South Wales and Merthyr Tydfil have changed immeasurably and they give an insight into the behaviour of the modern, cynical, unprincipled political class.

It should act as a lesson to other constituencies (and other countries) who are falling into the trap of voting for politicians who, using class envy, promise welfare from cradle to grave paid for by 'the rich'  in order to usurp and maintain power.

Since the election of Keir Hardie, the first Labour Member of Parliament in 1900, Merthyr Tydfil has been in the grip of the Labour party both locally and nationally. In the same period the town has descended from a global industrial powerhouse into a welfare dependent socialist Dystopia.

The key area statistics for Merthyr Tydfil are truly horrifying.

Unemployment 13.4%,   average for Wales 8.4%,  for Britain 8.1% (age group 16-24,  34.2%)

Economically inactive 29.0%, for Wales 27%, for Britain 23.5%

Job Seekers Allowance claimants 6.4%, for Wales 4.0%, for Britain 3.8%

Total benefit claimants a whopping 27.4%,  for Wales 18.5%,  for Britain 14.7%

Incapacity Benefit claimants 20.5% of working age people

7.9% of the unemployed have never had a job, 34% have out of work for 15 years and a staggering 54% out of work for 10 years

Child Poverty is a shameful 30%

GDP/Head s 64.4% of the EU average

Education performance is a disgrace with 22% leaving school with no qualifications compared to the Welsh average of 18% and the British average of 15%

 Births to single teenager mothers are higher in Merthyr than the rest of Wales

Life expectancy is 10 years less than some areas of London.

The Welsh Index of Multiple Deprivation list 36% of areas in Merthyr Tydfil fall in the 10% most deprived areas in Wales. The majority of the areas in Merthyr Tydfil are more deprived than the rest of Wales.

The people have sacrificed their dignity and accept handouts of taxpayers money without embarrassment, believing the politicians' endless propaganda that it is their entitlement as victims of 'the rich'.

In addition to all this, the long suffering, law abiding, hard working people of Merthyr Tydfil have to endure anti social behaviour by feral children plus higher than average levels of drink and drug fuelled crime.

The leaders in charge of this social disaster are ideologically driven career politicians with no wealth or job creating experience. They are so devoted to their outdated and failed socialist ideology that they can't contemplate any solutions outside it or any alternative to it at all for that matter.

It must be reiterated that Labour have owned political power in Merthyr Tydfil for over a century including a recent 13 year period of unfettered parliamentary power. They try to blame others for the scandalous conditions in Merthyr Tydfil but they've had plenty of time to put things right, the responsibility is theirs and theirs alone.

The current steward of this depravity is Dai Havard MP, a devoted socialist with little or no experience outside the world of trade unionism and Labour Party politics.

A look through his bio's reveal that Dai Basra  (named for his frequent trips to Basra under the cover of membership the Defence Committee) is a local boy who, after finishing his education spent a few years as a jobbing engineer, he then became a Trade Union researcher, then a Trade Union Education tutor, then a full time Trade Union official with the MSF union, now part of the communist run Unite.

To remind readers Unite is the strike happy trade union that brings misery to millions of hard working people and damages the British economy in the process. It also finances the Labour party out of its members subscriptions and is run by the self loathing communist sympathiser Red Len McCluskey.

Maybe Dai shares Len's admiration for the blood soaked tyrant Fidel Castro and maybe like Len he would prefer Castro's Cuba, where political parties are banned, the prisons are full of dissidents.

Maybe Dai Basra and Len can explain why tens of thousands of long suffering Cubans risk their lives in unseaworthy boats to escape that socialist Utopia in order to get to that bastion of inequality and unfairness called the United States of America. 

Len McCuskey is a  hypocrite of the highest order who is immune to the consequences of his actions, who also enjoys a six figure salary and a champagne lifestyle on the backs of his members hard work. Nice supporters you've got Dai.

Even blood soaked despots like Castro get a reality check sooner or later. He has accepted that communism has failed and he is in the process of dismantling the communist state he set up, sacking his public sector workers and opening up the economy to private enterprise.

Maybe Dai Havard could do the same for his constituents, if socialism failed in Cuba why would it succeed in Merthyr Tydfil. He's got nothing to lose. Unlike the dissidents in Cuba he wouldn't be put up against a wall and shot if he suddenly discovered his spine and spoke up for his constituents.

Its ironic that Dai Havard, who believes that the state should control society using taxation and regulation, sat on a Committee for Regulatory Reform while at the same time his political masters in Westminster and Brussels were churning out wealth and job destroying regulations by the thousands.

Dai Havard has been in Parliament for 11 years and unless the good people of Merthyr Tydfil come to their senses, he will remain there as long as he pleases.  One would have thought that with his dedication to the socialist cause and after a decade in parliament, he would have progressed further than the back benches. Not a chance, Dai has not even made it to junior minister or a PPS.

To Ed Miliband and the remote political elite that control Dai Havard, Merthyr Tydfil is in the bag for Labour therefore Dai Havard only has only one function and that is to keep it there.

They do give him some crumbs off the table in the form of committee memberships. This keeps him occupied and gives him an excuse for some taxpayer funded travel.

Even then he can't behave professionally, reports indicate that he threw a tantrum on a recent taxpayer funded trip to the Falkland Islands because a horse riding trip he had been looking forward to had to be cancelled for scheduling reasons. What an embarrassment.

Even though its unlikely that he could hold a serious position in the real world of the wealth creating sector Dai Havard is paid handsomely for maintaining the status quo and keeping the Merthyr people on the plantation. It costs close to a quarter of a million pounds of hard earned taxpayer money for his pay, allowances and expenses,  he has a below average voting record in parliament therefore he must be considered a monumental waste of money.

It doesn't end there for the hard pressed people of Merthyr Tydfil, Dai Havard has an equally expensive twin duplicating his uselessness in the Welsh Parliament. Dedicated socialist Huw Lewis AM.
