    Has fascism taken hold in our government?>>

    Yes. And we only have one chance to stop it from growing.

      Fascists are socialists that don't believe that there will ever be a socialist 'utopia', like what communists believe. Instead, fascists believe that socialism is only a tool to get money, power and sex. Consequently, communists lie to get into power and then gloat when they have their tyranny, whereas fascists lie to get into power and then keep lying just in case the general public gets the idea that socialism isn't all about free medical care and handouts to the 'poor' (most of which wind up being the product of socialism when it's all said and done). Public schools were originally concocted at the end of the 1800s as a gimmick to break the power and influence of the church sunday schools that non-rich people relied on to get an education, and the curriculum was quickly revised to make kids dumb enough to accept socialism. Too bad, didn't work, lefties don't want to accept it and let religious types scrap the cr*p, in spite of how lousy public schools are these days. Fun, huh?

        oh, and btw, there are fascists in power (not necessarily in total control), simply because vote-buying isn't completely illegal and feudalism isn't as fun as socialism for the bums in power - hookers take cash from taxes, after all. we have a bunch of feudalists at the top of many large corporations, and then there's the guys that want to wreak the entire country just to make slavery a legal reality all over again (slave labor is profitable, and the hot babes are defenseless when a slavemaster gets his rocks on). it's just so much fun to be alive when all these types of scum are vying for power and wreaking things for the rest of us that dislike barbarism - even the pretty barbarism that nationalized medical care winds up turning into as soon as the cash starts to run out. wake me up when the rest of you are willing to vote for someone who actually has the ability to fix things, instead of a big mouth and no clue like obama, hillary, huckabee, etc. career pols have fat paychecks...

          Interesting rant. So Hitler was all out to help the poor but something went wrong along the way? And the top 10 countries in the world for health care have single payer systems, but our busted health care system is really far superior because it's run for profit.

            This article is a hoot.

            It is a laugh because under Hitler's rule home schooling was made illegal in Germany and to this day it is still illegal there. So, much for the article claiming that true Christians and Hitler have anything in common, much less a desire to destroy public education.

            I home schooled both of my daughters, yet I do not want to see public school done away with. I would like to not be forced to pay for them. And I would like for public school teachers to not think that people give birth to give them a job. I would also like for our government to leave home schoolers alone in all U.S. states.

              Finding one point where current Christian Nation builders differ from Hitler is hardly cover for all the points where their rhetoric matches. To insist so is to either be deliberately dense or honestly so.

              Regarding funding, nobody likes taxes. But cutting out public funding of education or making it optional would mean the end of public education. It would mean that for lots of families, where both parents must work, the children would go completely without education. Your program would soon have America back in the dark ages.

                The article is about schooling, claiming that Hitler wanted to end public schooling, when it was home schooling that he ended in Germany. Hence, my post was right on the mark.

                As for taxing me to pay for schools that my children did not use, it is wrong. Bottom line, let those who use public schools, PAY for public schools.

              sometimes, I wonder why I even bother...

              Hitler wasn't out to help the poor, just to pay lip service to the concept while grabbing power and using socialism (and all it's fine excuses and intentions) to make even more people - especially out of his political opponents. The 'top' countries in the world for health care are not only lying about how good they are, they're also in a downward spiral of increasing costs (because of socialism-created economic imbalances) and a decreasing labor pool (because the imbalances are caused by socialism-inspired pay cuts for medical personnel, so nobody wants to be a doctor once the word gets out that a medical degree is nothing more than a vow of poverty like a Franciscan monk). As for the US medical system, guess what the 'solution' is for the 'broken' medical system that politicians in D.C. have worked so hard to break? You guessed it - socialism, Hillary Clinton style (among others). You can wake up from your free-lunch fantasies now, ET.

                Sorry JC, but the study in reference about the top countries in health care doesn't isn't an opinion poll. It's based on statistics like life expectancy, infant mortality, deaths from preventable disease, etc. And the US, which is in its own dwindling spiral of health care costs, is #37 just behind Costs Rica. Looks like the Enron model has at least as many faults in it as your hated socialism model does.

            Anyone who thinks that a culture coming together for the betterment of the whole in defining areas (like education) is 'socialism' by definition, is too ignorant to converse with.

              Anyone who thinks that a culture coming together with the best of intentions and the worst of methods to act on those intentions is too dim to figure out that socialism (a pretense of helping one and all with taxes and government restraints, with the inescapable reality of politicians buying votes from the ever-increasing number of 'poor' people with everyone else's tax money) is a recipe for starvation of both one's own country/culture and all involved trading partners. Remember that socialism is really just a repackaging of old-Europe oppression techiques, and that the French Revolution never really taught the French people exactly how their rulers had gotten away with treating them so hideously for so long, and that socialism is also just a minor upgrade to the economic oppression techniques in Islam - but that last one's a topic for another thread, I guess.
