The Slavery
of Liberalism
July, 15 2012
Most people, I think, would say off hand that
Conservatism and Liberalism were, in the main, at odds with each other. There
is no doubt that the two factions are always at each other’s throat….But they
are by far, more closely in step ideologically than they would wish people to
believe. While the Conservatives would take the hard-line stance against any
governmentally funded social programs; preferring instead, that THE PEOPLE
should find relief from the evils of capitalism through the Charity of the
wealthy…..Liberals, however, are not so different in this respect, as they
themselves are an enemy to Socialism; even though many of them would say
otherwise……
Liberals are a considerable threat to
Revolutionary Socialism as they historically seek a compromise between the
Conservative political parties and the very real needs of the People, offering The People no real freedom from oppression, but rather, some watered down form of “partial
relief” by way of government hand-outs, but never, ever lessening the grip of Capitalism
upon the masses, while in turn, placating to the Wealthy and the Corporations.
It is in this strategy, that the Liberals find strength and support, not only
from the wealthy, but from many of the uneducated poor. To gain a better
understanding of the liberal strategy, we have to look no further than Obama
Care; known correctly as the Affordable Care Act, (here after ACA) which was passed
by the United States Congress and upheld by the United States Supreme Court. It
is a first rate example of how Liberals always find a way to intertwine the
needs of the people with the oppression offered by capitalist corporations.
The over-all intent of the (ACA) is to
provide health care to those who are in need..….and therefore; it would seem on
its surface, to be a real benefit to the citizenry at large. This “Benefit”
however comes with a large package of “Corporatism” that is of no benefit to
anyone but the wealthy…..because of this fact, the ACA would most assuredly be
strongly supported by many of the Conservatives…..were it not for the fact that
the ACA is the brain-child of the Liberals.
Instead of just giving the people the health
care that they not only need, but deserve….the ACA is a scheme based upon
Corporate Free-Market health insurance and allows for a subsidy to help the
poor buy the insurance that they, on their own, could not pay for….the wealth
get no such government assistance. It is easy to see that there is a margin of
inequality built into the ACA, as well as the classic Liberal connection to
corporate wealth. The built-in inequality is necessary to give the illusion that
the Liberals care about the poor and the use of Free Market Corporate insurance
gives them the financial support that they need from the wealthy. Once again,
the poor are strapped to some big-money corporation as a way to supply their
needs, in this way………..the Liberals and the Conservatives are much the same.
This type of Liberal trickery is just as
oppressive as any other form of Capitalism and a grave threat to the Socialist
Revolution as is drains away, through
coercion, the exploited masses that would otherwise be among the ranks of the
Revolutionaries. Obviously, this is not only bad for the revolution but further
enslaves the poor. Even though they may not see it as slavery, the ACA requires
that people to permanently tie themselves to Capitalism in order to meet their
needs in the same way that they are tied to Capitalism for food, shelter and
income.
