Socialism will Always Fail!


A large portion of the American young have been brainwashed into believing that socialism is the best method for the government. What exactly is socialism?

Socialism is the spread of land and wealth throughout the community.

Doesn't that sound like a good idea? The idea of it sounds good and to someone not working it would be a good system. However, in the long run it will harm the group as a whole. I have a analogy that i'd like to share with you but first i'd like to look up the definition of theft.

Theft is the taking of away of ones property

Just imagine this, you get done with a hard weeks work, about 40 hours. Finally though, you've received a paycheck for all those hours deducted from your life! You open up the envelope with your check in there, but you notice something fishy, 25% of it is missing. That missing amount would be the amount that you pay Bobby to sit in his home and watch television. Remember that starbucks coffee you wanted? Well, you couldn't afford it but Jill, who receives food stamps for doing nothing, gets the starbucks coffee for free! 

You must admit to yourself that this was for the betterment of the community. However, after the constant weeks of seeing your paycheck deducted you finally had enough of it! You quit your job and started living like 49% of the Americans in America. For awhile, you really enjoyed your life, but after awhile you noticed something, your government checks were shrinking month by month. Then, on your new flat screen TV, a breaking news bulletin appeared; 90% of America are on government handouts and it's bankrupting the country! 

You ignorantly figured that society would be okay, you were still receiving money from the government. After a few more year of this, the checks just stopped coming in the mail. You heard screams outside, a riot. People were breaking into stores and dragging the owners into the streets while beating them to a bloody  pulp. Society broke down, there was no more government money. The whole government collapsed from the costs of the programs, the people took to the streets. Without money, police can't be hired, without police chaos will envelope the country. You finally regret quitting your job and allowing the government to ban your guns for your 'safety'. There's no one to help you and there's no way for you to eat. Ultimately  everyone stopped trying to fend for themselves before the crash and wanted a free ride. 

If that analogy was not enough, here's one about college.


An economics professor at Texas Tech said he had never failed a single student before but had, once, failed an entire class. That class had insisted that socialism worked and that no one would be poor and no one would be rich, a great equalizer. The professor then said ok, we will have an experiment in this class on socialism.

All grades would be averaged and everyone would receive the same grade so no one would fail and no one would receive an A. After the first test the grades were averaged and everyone got a B. The students who studied hard were upset and the students who studied little were happy. But, as the second test rolled around, the students who studied little had studied even less and the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free ride too; so they studied little.. The second test average was a D! No one was happy. When the 3rd test rolled around the average was an F.

The scores never increased as bickering, blame, name calling all resulted in hard feelings and no one would study for the benefit of anyone else. All failed, to their great surprise, and the professor told them that socialism would also ultimately fail because when the reward is great, the effort to succeed is great; but when government takes all the reward away; no one will try or want to succeed.
