Our country is in danger of becoming a socialist nation. It is too late to nip it in the bud, but we can take drastic steps to stamp out this insidious trend.

First of all we must put an end to public education and public libraries. These institutions give the lower masses ideas above their station and foment discontent. The ridiculous idea that anyone can become president is an example of the poisoning of lesser minds by socialistic notions.

Next, we must disabuse the elitist notions of the working class by discontinuing the so-called safety nets like minimum wage, limited working hours/days, unemployment insurance and workman's compensation. Unions, of course, are a disease that must be dealt with harshly. Serfs have no right to tell their overlords how they must be treated.

Now we come to the latest assault on our freedom from government interference in our private lives, that medical treatment should be considered a right and paid for with our taxes. It's simple, if you cannot afford treatment it is God's will that you suffer or die because you obviously didn't work hard enough or are guilty of some undiscovered sin. Social Security (even the name is an abomination) is an entitlement that panders to the elderly and disabled. If you are unable to work you are a drain on society and our illustrious nation. A humane form of euthanasia would be the best way of dealing with these undesirables.

Naturally socialist programs like police and fire departments would be eliminated. The military would deal with lawbreakers and civil unrest and military courts would decide if public physical punishment (flogging, stocks, shunning), imprisonment or execution is warranted. In the event of fire, it would be handled by the citizens of the neighborhood threatened as it is in their interest to stop it from spreading.

It won't be easy, but if we work together we can 'Make America Great Again' by fighting against these misguided people who seek to further infect our great country with the evils of socialism.
