The American Socialist

I got a question. Hows come republicans are so scared of socialism? I know, I know, BIG BROTHER!
Yes, big brother looking deep into the lives of the people of this country. Total control over all that we say, do, think and believe is the target of socialism. Yes that's scary and the funny thing is that it's the republican platform that continues to move us in that direction minus the social benefits in the name of freedom.

I've read that socialism and freedom go hand in hand but social suggests “for the people” not for the government to walk all over the people which again seems to be the direction the republicans are going while doing their reverse Robin Hood gig in robbing the poor to give to the rich. They want the control that is pictured in George Orwell's 1984 without the responsibility of taking care of the needs of the people of the nation.

Two of the greatest heroes of the conservative movement were Senator Joe McCarthy and FBI Director J Edgar Hoover. Both vigorously attacked communism with its socialistic ways while delving deeply into the private lives of the people of America. They themselves were acting out the “BIG BROTHER” scenario while supposedly fighting against it.

Today, they still want to control the nation through keeping the people ignorant. (a word I believe to be misused) Day after day they try to take steps in the direction toward making our country into a theocratic nation. They oppose sharia law of Islam while trying to impose a religious law of their own.

Tell me, who are the American Socialists?
