The irony of this article appearing in the English edition of Pravda
(Russian State Newspaper) defies description.  

 
American capitalism gone with a whimper 
 
It must be said, that like the breaking of a great dam, the American
descent into Marxism is happening with breath taking speed, against the
back drop of a passive, hapless sheeple, excuse me dear reader, I meant
people. 
  
True, the situation has been well prepared on and off for the past
century, especially the past twenty years. The initial testing grounds
was conducted upon our Holy Russia and a bloody test it was. But we
Russians would not just roll over and give up our freedoms and our
souls, no matter how much money Wall Street poured into the fists of
the Marxists. 
  
Those lessons were taken and used to properly prepare the American
populace for the surrender of their freedoms and souls, to the whims of
their elites and betters. 
  
First, the population was dumbed down through a politicized and
substandard education system based on pop culture, rather then the
classics. Americans know more about their favorite TV dramas then the
drama in DC that directly affects their lives. They care more for their
"right" to choke down a McDo nalds burger or a Burger King burger than
for their constitutional rights. Then they turn around and lecture us
about our rights and about our "democracy". Pride blind the foolish. 
  
Then their faith in God was destroyed, until their churches, all tens
of thousands of diffe
rent "branches and denominations" were for the
most part little more then Sunday circuses and their televangelists and
top protestant mega preachers were more then happy to sell out their
souls and flocks to be on the "winning" side of one pseudo Marxist
politician or another. Their flocks may complain, but when explained
that they would be on the "winning" side, their flocks were ever so
quick to reject Christ in hopes for earthly power. Even our Holy
Orthodox churches are scandalously liberalized in America. 
  
The final collapse has come with the election of Barack Obama. His
speed in the past three months has been truly impressive. His spending
and money printing has been a record setting, not just in America's
short history but in the world. If this keeps up for more then another
year, and there is no sign that it will not, America at best will
resemble the Wiemar Republic and at worst Zimbabwe. 
  
These past two weeks have been the most breath taking of all. First
came the announcement of a planned redesign of the American Byzantine
tax system, by the very thieves who used it to bankroll their thefts,
loses and swindles of hundreds of billions of dollars. These make our
Russian oligarchs look little more then ordinary street thugs, in
comparison. Yes, the Americans have beat our own thieves in the shear
volumes. Should we congratulate them? 
  
These men, of course,=2
0are not an elected panel but made up of
appointees picked from the very financial oligarchs and their henchmen
who are now gorging themselves on trillions of American dollars, in one
bai lout after another.. They are also usurping the rights, duties and
powers of the American congress (parliament). Again, congress has put
up little more then a whimper to their masters. 
  
Then came Barack Obama's command that GM's (General Motor) president
step down from leadership of his company.. That is correct, dear
reader, in the land of "pure" free markets, the American president now
has the power, the self given power, to fire CEOs and we can assume
other employees of private companies, at will. Come hither, go dither,
the centurion commands his minions. 
  
So it should be no surprise, that the American president has followed
this up with a "bold" move of declaring that he and another group of
unelected, chosen stooges will now redesign the entire automotive
industry and will even be the guarantee of automobile policies. I am
sure that if given the chance, they would happily try and redesign it
for the whole of the world, too. Prime Minister Putin, less then two
months ago, warned Obama and UK's Blair, not to follow the path to
Marxism, it only leads to disaster. Apparently, even though we suffered
70 years of this Western sponsored horror show, we know nothing, as
foolish, drunken Russians, so
let our "wise" Anglo-Saxon fools find out
the folly of their own pride. 
  
Again, the American public has taken this with barely a whimper...but a
"freeman" whimper. 
  
So, should it be any surprise to discover that the Democratically
controlled Congress of America is working on passing a new regulation
that would give the American Treasury department the power to set
"fair" maximum salaries, evaluate performance and control how private
companies give out pay raises and bonuses? Senator Barney Frank, a
social pervert basking in his homosexuality (of course, amongst the
modern, enlightened American societal norm, as well as tha t of the
general West, homosexuality is not only not a looked down upon life
choice, but is often praised as a virtue) and his Marxist
enlightenment, has led this effort. He stresses that this only affects
companies that receive government monies, but it is retroactive and
taken to a logical extreme, this would include any company or industry
that has ever received a tax break or incentive. 
  
The Russian owners of American companies and industries should look
thoughtfully at this and the option of closing their facilities down
and fleeing the land of the Red as fast as possible. In other words,
divest while there is still value left. 
The proud American will go down into his slavery with out a fight,
beating his chest and proclaiming to the world, how
free he really is.
The world will only snicker.

Pretty sad. The Russians can see what is coming and many of our fellow Americans can't.

I predicted, prior to the election, that our economy would resemble Zimbabwe's if Obama and his cronies got in power. I see nothing that would change my mind.

Just like Mugabe, Obama is replacing business leaders with his cronies who have never ran anything but fundraisers.
