This is, I am sure not a complete list, but 3 item that I think would be required to make Socialism a success.

1. Everyone involved has to agree for the greater cause. Those that don’t, will be dealt with.
2. Everyone has to contribute for the greater cause. Those that don’t, will be dealt with.
3. Everyone has to sacrifice for the greater cause. Those that don’t, will be dealt with.

If anyone can get more than 10 grown adults to go along with this, you are on your way.

Sadly, socialism only works in controlled environments like, families, small groups, companies, cults and small communities. Even more sad, it usually only works partially at best.

This biggest problem with trying to get Socialism to work is the pesky desire of the human spirit to be free and live as they please without much interference.

An Instapundit reader sent a proposed Amendment to the Constitution.

I like it. Maybe it will keep them from passing so many laws that line their own pockets.

Black Eyed Peas, Cabbage and Corn Bread consumed. 2010, it’s going to be a good year.

We used the bone from the Christmas Ham along with the left over ham in the black eyed peas. Of course sauteed some bacon for the cabbage and made the corm bread in the cast iron skillet.

We even made Smores, roasting the Marsh Mellows over the hot coals of the fire place. That’s gonna make it a great year.

Happy New Year Everyone.

In light of these horrible economic times and the efforts of the US Congress and Administration trying to make it worse, I am going Galt this Holiday Season.

I will not be participating or at least cutting back as much as possible this year, in the over commercialization of the Holiest of Holy Seasons.

For those of you not familiar with Going Galt here is a short explanation:

Expression for undergoing a voluntary financial strike or decrease in income. An individual might choose to do this in order to protest the amount of money going to the government, or to protest what they feel are unfair taxes (if they earn less, they will be taxed less, therefore hurting the government). The term is taken from a character in Ayn Rand’s novel “Atlas Shrugged”; the main character John Galt leads a movement where the wealthiest individuals leave their jobs for low-paying jobs in order to protest the socialist economy.

by any other name is still a government option. Oh and it will still suck is comparison to a private option.

If you think health care is expensive now, wait until you see what it costs when it’s free.

PJ O’Rouke

To allow the government to have more control over our health care responsibilities and the trillions of dollars it will cost, is nothing in comparison to the Freedom and Liberty we will have to surrender.

The government is going to take care of it all.

I’m not a racist, but you are an idiot.

Earth Hour — 8:30 to 9:30 p.m in every time zone this Saturday on the planet. I will be celebrating by consuming as much electricity as possible to make up the difference.

Well, I was thinking back on it today and realized that every year of my life has been better than the last. So with that in mind I have no reason to believe that 2009 will not be better. No matter what the media tries to tell otherwise.

Yes, some poor sob called me from the GOP yesterday and had the nerve to ask me to support the party financially that does not support me in ideals and the things that I believe in. In essence I told them to go to hell.

I have been hearing this term “parental responsibility” going around quite a bit lately. This is funny in the sense that the government continues to relieve parents of responsibility through insane social policy and social programs.

Think about it and discuss.
