Todd’s Life

Hi all! As everyone knows by now, I am happily married to a beautiful, intelligent, smart, funny, goofy, nerdy Chilean woman. We have been married now for over 3 months. I don’t think it is very appropriate to post much about our personal life. That is personal stuff. So I am going to turn this blog into more of political, economic, things that I find interesting in the world today. I hope you enjoy.

Right now I am reading the Communist Manifesto. I thought it would be good to understand the great work that espouses communism and is basically the father of all the great socialist movements since the 1800s and according to Barack Obama. I found this next piece on the web. It is crudely written and perhaps a little too simplistic or one-sided, but I think that it proves its point, which is that Barack Obama, no matter how nice of a gentleman he might be, believes in Marxism and would probably agree very much with the Communist Manifesto.

A comparison of Obama’s Ideas to the 10 Planks of the Communist Manifesto

1. Abolition of property in land and application of all rents of land to public purposes. (Obama is for more public use of private land by confiscation. Liberals around the country are confiscating private land for new public use. )
2. A heavy progressive or graduated income tax. (Obama plans to rescind tax cuts and to raise taxes, no matter what he says.).
3. Abolition of all right of inheritance. (Obama wants to significantly raise the inheritance tax.)
4. Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels. (Obama will soon classify you as a rebel, just like his compaign tried to silence a Chicago talk radio show. Why not just make it official, Obama?)
5. Centralization of credit in the hands of the State, by means of a national bank with State capital and an exclusive monopoly. (Obama calling for strict regulations on banks.)
6. Centralization of the means of communication and transport in the hands of the State. (Obama just loves the Chinese ports, trains, etc. That’s because he wants the government to take over this function.)
7. Extension of factories and instruments of production owned by the State; the bringing into cultivation of waste-lands, and the improvement of the soil generally in accordance with a common plan. (Obama wants to penalize factories which want to move some operations offshore to participate in the global economy. What are his plans, confiscation)?
8. Equal liability of all to labour. Establishment of industrial armies, especially for agriculture. (Obama is calling for a new “national commitment to service”. What Obama is not telling you is that it is compulsory.)
9. Combination of agriculture with manufacturing industries; gradual abolition of the distinction between town and country, by a more equable distribution of the population over the country. (Obama wants several functions to be turned over to the government. For instance, Obama says he’s against the “fairness doctrine,” but he is for severly limiting ownership in the media as a way to control “conservative talk radio.)
10. Free education for all children in public schools. (Obama is for free education, but Obama is really for compulsory indoctrination of children in public schools by fighting school vouchers. You see, if you tax a family to death, then they can’t afford any school by a government school.)

According to the Communist Manifesto, all these were prior conditions for a transition from capitalism to communism.

And here’s an interesting article that will at least get you to think.  If Barack Obama really believes Alinsky’s writings and spent the primary part of his career implementing those things, then is he also a fan of Lucifer as well and his work…  Obama and Alinsky
