Just left this comment on “thesilent5.net”’s website:
Are you kidding me about the two “thriving” socialist organizations you’ve cited here: the postal system and our education system? Maybe you should take a course in Economics 101 and U.S. History 101. Why are FedEx, UPS, and a number of other evil “corporations” stomping on the U.S. Postal System’s butt? Because they are “for-profit” organizations who can deliver a better product for less money. There is a reason for the phrase “going postal”, moron. Also, have you looked at U.S. students’ test scores in relation to the rest of the world? My kids are NEVER going to public school…I will work my fingers to the bone to make sure they don’t. The education is not only poor but the teachers are too concerned about their pensions to care about the quality of the education they are giving our children. European students’ test scores are higher over-all thanks to an ironically more Democratic approach to education: they give out vouchers to parents (not democratic, yes socialistic) and then the parents decide what schools are the best at teaching their children and then send their children there. This produces healthy competition amongst the schools. Consequently the quality of the education is much higher and it shows in the test scores of European students. Get a clue homestray!

The last quote by Robert Bruner illustrated a common thought, that the cost of not ding the bailout is to great. I have a question, what if doing the right thing would result in the death of 3 of your 9 kids, would you still do it. While it would be a hard decision to make, we do have a good example to look to. Have you ever heard of the war in heaven? Doing the right thing there resulted in the immediate death of one third of Gods children, and there are countless others who will be lost along the way. Do what is right let the consequence fallow! Call a spade a spade! If it is not win win, it will be lose lose, and all will be negatively affected. That is why God presented us with the plan and let us choose.

I find it ironic that politicians are afraid of the word Socialism, when clearly it is the philosophical foundation of their ideas, and their entire campaigns. The 700 Billion dollar bailout is progressive socialism, if not worse. Karl Marx Communist Manifesto #5 says: “Centralization of credit in the hands of the State, by means of a national bank with State capital and an exclusive monopoly.” Maybe if we started calling our politicians communists it would sit better.
