Democrats’ promises same as past utopian efforts — they will fail
Democrats’ promises same as past utopian efforts —
they will fail

Who are the Democrats of today? Do they still believe in the words spoken by President John F. Kennedy, “Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country”? Or do they just wish to lay claim and hold onto the mystique of the Kennedy name?
Let’s look at the Democrats’ promises of today: free education, free housing, free food, free medicine, free healthcare, free phones, free Internet and more gun control. One will find, all these promises of today are like the past promises of a “somewhere over the rainbow” utopia promised by communist and socialist leaders around the world.
The reality of these promises today, in America, is a more expensive, more intrusive, ever growing government behemoth attaching more strings and regulations to the bows and ribbons of these so-called free gifts and a nation in debt by over $19 trillion and growing every minute.Some free things they call a safety net, but in reality they constitute a giant net that captures and anchors so many stagnating in the cesspool of poverty. These well-intended programs remove the burning desire to succeed, to improve one’s lot in life and replace it with an overwhelming complacent resolve to dependency and failure.
With their opiate call of fairness and free, the Democrat politicians of today and the socialist and communist leaders of the past deceitfully acquired the power so they can take from those who have succeeded and enrich their lifestyle while providing minimal sustenance to those who have failed or not even tried.
Of course, in their utopia all must live at a lifestyle level that the government decrees. Look at all the wonderful government housing projects and the ghettos people have been herded into and compare it to the housing and lifestyle in which the political class lives.
How many times has the world been promised utopia and failed? Can you name one success?
