As a system that is inherently evil, Socialism conceals its sinister objectives and methods with money.
To get our minds stirred to actually think, Dr. Williams entices us with this nifty item:
Evil acts can be given an aura of moral legitimacy by noble-sounding socialistic expressions such as spreading the wealth, income redistribution or caring for the less fortunate. Let's think about socialism.
Imagine there's an elderly widow down the street from you. She has neither the strength to mow her lawn nor enough money to hire someone to do it. Here's my question to you that I'm almost afraid for the answer: Would you support a government mandate that forces one of your neighbors to mow the lady's lawn each week? If he failed to follow the government orders, would you approve of some kind of punishment ranging from house arrest and fines to imprisonment?
Read the entire article HERE. Ponder over it slowly, and let it sink in. Let your children and grandchildren read it. Send it to as many as you can think of.
America needs to be reminded of the greatness and superiority of our free enterprise system and the inherent evil embodied by Socialism, which passes itself off as 'right' and 'moral' by its supposed concern for 'helping the unfortunate.'
Taking from one group of citizens to give to another group of citizens is robbery, and the last time I checked, robbery is a crime.

Great post! The analogy of mowing the lawn is spot on!
I may use his article to link to a future post. Hope you would not mind me 'borrowing' your analogy as well.
Fight on America!
Armed,
Glad you liked it. Remember, everything in the italicized quote belongs to Dr. Williams, not me.
Use as you wish, as long as you give credit...a link to the original post is also good.
Thanks!
Not only do we rob the one taken from of his duly earned wages, but we rob the one given to of self-worth and the chance to rise above circumstances and set an example for others to do the same. Gee, this is classic Horatio Alger stuff. We can't let it die in some illuminati, pea soup, quasi-socialistic directive from Big Brother. And what about all the charitable folks who want to help this women mow her lawn? Let them!
Americans WILL and always have volunteered to do charitable acts if given the chance to do so. But when government steps in and mandates it, that nullifies any notion that we are 'doing good deeds.'
Voluntary acts of charity are admirable. But if we are forced to do it by government mandate, we are actually doing nothing good at all, except under duress.
Outstanding article, that.
I have never had anything against charity - if people will accept it, and you are willing to give it, more power to the lot of you.
In a likewise manner, though, I have never really had anything against selfishness - if you earned it, procured it, or otherwise fell into it, it is yours, and you can do with it as you bloody well please.
The government stepping in and saying "you will", however... that is highway robbery, pure and simple.
