Joe,

I am going to assume you are not trying to be funny by comparing mild overconsumption of BBQ to the contrived food shortages that forced millions upon millions under Soviet rule to resort to cannibalism as their hunger & suffering began to overwhelm them? You are not going to equate our people, who might die in their 60's & 70's of hardened arteries after a lifetime of comfort & enjoyment, to children & babies whithering down to skin & bones in unspeakable misery that resulted from this beloved concept of collectivism; converting private owners' resources into the "people's resources".

Joe, you need to read a history book sometime and get your head out of the propaganda pages.

Communism isn't all that bad…

What I don't understand is why you all think so. My only educated guess is that we don't see the bodies from Capitalism pile up from our backyard American style BBQs (I love a good BBQ, personally). Capitalism is a "for profit" organization. It doesn't care if millions die for diamonds, oil, coal, opium poppies, etc. It will bring a nation's young men and women to foreign lands to fight and die for resources like those. I think "people's resources" sounds better than "war for resources."

And if they aren't the "people's resources" then who's resources are they?

I have been trying for years to show friends, family and people on message boards that the things these pols are saying are based on communist principles. Have only had a minimum amount of success. The problem is, people don't seem to think communism is that bad. Doesn't matter how many bodies pile up. I don't understand it.

You have to stick in there, Lori. If we don't uncover these marxists whenever they tout one of their foolish platitudes, no one else will.

At least no one in the MSM will. Or the Democratic party.

With any luck, Cavuto, who knows his economics and his politics, smacked the commie up a bit.

I would hope that Cavuto had someone on after her to provide education.

I don't know. As soon as she said "the people's resources" I got scared & changed the channel real quick. Can only take small doses you know.

It's interesting that she would say that. That's exactly the rationale that communist countries have used to nationalize all sorts of industries. First, it's the natural resources of the nation that belong to "the people". Then it's the people's labor. Eventually, it's the people's very thoughts.

America has never, ever operated on the principle that its natural resources belonged to a collective. I would hope that Cavuto had someone on after her to provide education.

I heard a woman on Cavuto yesterday saying something to the effect of we need to nationalize it because the resource belongs to the poeple and she thought we needed to "give it to the people (Americans) so they can decide how to manage it".

Does she mean like when we decided against gay marriage? Illegal immigration? Restrictions on abortion?

I mean seriously, why not just say they want to steal it to line their own pockets while rationing its use among the rightful owners, the American people, until they are starved into submission? I just hate it when they lie…
