I know crazy title right! But its amazing how this area in politics is publicized as the great evil of our day. Everyone from Republicans, tea par-tiers and even Evangelical Christians all tote the dangers and evils of the Socialism protocol that is labeled to most Democrats.

From the start I am not a socialist or belong to any political party I think for myself and look at the individual instead of the party.  I am an evangelical christian and believe the Bible is God’s word to instruct us.

Now that I have said that I do question the notion of calling any particular party a strict Socialist or labeling anyone as being against capitalism because truth fully speaking most of America runs by a socialist mantra.  We don’t function by a free market not as long as the Fed dictates monetary policy.  In addition many companies and even churches would not exist without government involvement.  Over 50% of CVS business is directly tied to medicaid which is a social program.  Churches benefit from tax exclusions and technically speaking do not produce anything in the purest form of production.  America’s largest population of baby boomers many of them live off the biggest social programs in America which is Social security.

We really don’t want to function by the free market because it requires you to be free.  A long forgotten notion to most people including some Christians and many proponents who cry President Obama is a Socialist.

I am a capitalist in nature but I know how people would not be able to survive in a pure capitalist society.  I tote the honorable Ron Paul and his stance for the Constitution and liberty.  I am sorry to say unfortunately many people who are against Socialism really don’t want a free market either.  No more putting money in banks and receiving a return on the money without risk.  No more crying to the ineffective SEC for regulation in the stock market.  No more government grants or any institution that redistributes wealth and does not produce anything in turn.

No more government pensions: state and federal.  You will have to learn to invest and rely on the lord for your existence and your abilty to adapt and change to an ever changing market.  So again socialism is bad but are you really ready to change it now .  I know I am but we first have to get people to understand how deep socialist behaviours is ingrained in our American society.
