Socialist Scheme #2:
Socialist Schemes Continued…Free-for-all Health Care:

It’s no secret that Bernie Sanders is the godfather of American socialism.

He received more millennial votes than Trump and Clinton combined.

And his ambitious free-for-all health plan is a disaster.

The Urban Institute and The Mercatus Center, both social and economic policy think tanks-

…Recently revealed that Bernie’s plan will cost the government $32 trillion over the decade.

The Tax Policy Center also ran the numbers. Bernie’s health care plan would, if unfunded, add a further $3 trillion a decade, in interest costs alone.

These are big numbers that make your head spin, I know. But the Democrats are embracing this plan as is.

But that’s not all…

Socialist Scheme #3:Free College for All and Forgive All Student Loans:

How about we magically pull out $1.4 trillion from somewhere to clear all college loan debt?

If you’re thinking, other people's money will pay for it…

Then you’re right. It’s your money that will pay for it.

It will cost another $807 billion for Democrats’ free college scheme over the next decade.

Sad thing is… all the socialist presidential hopefuls for 2020 support free college for all.

This next one is a direct copy-cat from former Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez’s book.

Socialist Scheme #4:
The Largest Takeover of Private Wealth in Human History

Have you heard of the proposed Accountable Capitalism Act?

Here’s the long and short of it.

It’s a plan that’s been called a “federal takeover of the U.S. economy.”

And it gives the federal government the right to dictate how U.S. companies should manage their money…

And how to distribute profits too…

Just imagine… businesses that traditionally pay dividends to retirees… like Coca-Cola, Walmart, and Johnson & Johnson…

And retirement-friendly assets like Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) and employee stock repurchase plans…

Including 401(k) plans, IRAs, and other retirement accounts that are invested in stocks... all subject to a socialist government’s meddling.

Basically the government can “count your money” before you yourself touch a cent.

If successful, it would constitute the largest redistribution of private funds in American history.

Isn’t it funny how politicians can’t seem to balance a budget, or avoid a government shutdown…

Yet want a big say in running corporations.

In case you didn’t know, the Accountable Capitalism Act is Elizabeth Warren’s baby…

She is the same woman who’s running to become a socialist president in 2020. I hate to tell you this, but she could win.



Socialist policies will cost us a solid $40 trillion.

That’s more than the GDP of China, Russia, Germany, Canada, France, Brazil and Japan, combined.

Question is: How are they planning to fund these socialist programs..?

We all know how: More debt. More taxes. Cutting military funding. Abolishing the Immigration and Customs Enforcement department. Stealing from Social Security and Medicare…

Just take your pick….

No one said it better than former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher: “Socialist governments traditionally do make a financial mess. They always run out of other people’s money.”

In this case it will be YOUR money they’re coming after…

Prepare for…

Higher taxes on working-class Americans:

According to the Congressional Budget Office, one option for raising $34 trillion would require seizing over 70% of all corporate profits… including over 60% of all family income.

That could mean higher taxes on your 401(k)… even if you withdraw after 70 years.

With nearly 50 million Americans holding 401(k) plans, that’s a nice money pool for the socialist government.

But don’t think a 60% tax bracket is far-fetched or impossible…

Unless you’re living under a rock, I am sure you’ve heard of the Green New Deal

It’s a set of expensive new policies for the “New Socialist America”…

…Pushed by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez who is now on the finance committee of the House.

And a proposed 70% tax threshold for top earners is the only way to pay for it.

An opinion piece in the Washington Examiner reports this Green New Deal “is one of the most dangerous and extreme proposals offered in modern U.S. history. It’s the sort of thing you’d see in the Soviet Union, not the United States.

In short: Your money will be confiscated and disguised as a “tax.”

Your assets will be confiscated:

Don’t for a second think that asset confiscation is impossible.

It happened in 1933 when socialist president FDR forced everyone to turn in their gold at $20 an ounce…

Then they turned around and set the price at $30 an ounce. That’s 10 bucks on every ounce.

But let’s talk about today…

Do you know there’s a rule called Civil Asset Forfeit?

Under this rule, the state of Wyoming confiscated $91,800 from a musician named Phil Parhamovich… but never charged him with any crime.

Similar situations arose in Texas and elsewhere causing a federal judge to remark, “It’s victimizing innocent citizens who’ve done nothing wrong.”

Just imagine what will happen under a socialist government who’s looking to take from seniors to give to millennials…

Without warning, you could be locked out of your bank account, locked out of your brokerage account, locked out of your business, and even locked out of your own home.

And that comes with another burden…

Greedy lawsuits:

Any socialist government no doubt creates an environment where everyone thinks they’re entitled to your money.

With over 70% of the world’s lawyers operating in the U.S., expect lawsuits to be on steroids.

Imagine being sued for saying anything “politically incorrect” to someone, or just because you speak the truth.

Or because someone slipped in front of your house, even if they trespassed.

Or because you’ve held on to what’s rightfully yours and that, my friend, can be seen as an “injustice against the poor.”

Believe me, the socialists will find multiple ways to get your money.

Think of it.

There’ll be two major “devils” you’ll have to deal with.

The coming recession that could wipe out your savings… and socialism that will ensure hard-working Americans give up their own money… for a very long time.

Your payouts from Social Security and Medicare will also be slashed to fund other welfare projects for young voters.

Medication, food, everything will be controlled by government hacks… such as a socialist Democrat like Elizabeth Warren or Kamala Harris…

First off…

You’ll need to make sure there’s a “safe” location you can go to when socialist riots hit your neighborhood.

Make sure you’ve got enough food, water, and medication. Also keep all important documents in a sealed bag.

The next step is to grow your wealth to sustain your survival over the long haul.

It’s important to get exposure to some of the most valuable assets on Earth, especially during a crisis.

Modern economies can’t run without huge amounts of oil, coal, copper, platinum, uranium, corn, rice, lumber, and iron ore.

These natural resources are so important, they’re often a matter of national security.

You’ll also need to protect the purchasing power of your money from currency devaluation…

That would mean getting specific assurance with physical gold and silver.

Gold is a must-own asset through any financial crisis. Its value doesn’t depend on the health of the U.S. or any other economy.

For example, right after the financial crisis of 2008, gold soared from $732 to nearly $1,837 an ounce making some people rich.

The great thing is even if you store your gold locally, you can still participate in the global economy regardless of economic conditions at home.

Again these are simple steps you can take to safeguard your livelihood and grow your wealth at the same time.

Your best defense is to be prepared when everything comes crashing down…

How to start a neighborhood barter club


 


Rather than thinking about what they’ll need just today or this week, frugal people consider what they’ll use in the next month or year. This often leads them to stock up during big sales of nonperishable goods, such as toilet paper and dry beans, rather than buying things when the urgent need arises. They’ll notice that there are only four rolls of toilet paper left and add that to their list for the warehouse club instead of waiting until they’re almost out, making an emergency trip to the local corner store and paying three times as much per roll.

 


The biggest problem – you guessed it – is the debt-based paper money system. It requires endless, exponential growth (because every dollar is created as a loan, payable with interest).

If GDP isn’t growing enough to afford the interest payments, the system is collapsing, and that pain is too significant for society to worry about plastic straws in the ocean (or anything else).

Most of us see through the sham Democrat-Socialists are pulling w/ an impeachment hearing. Their effort is transparent & never-ending. Our entire family wrote letters to our elected reps telling them we DO NOT SUPPORT their effort. Further, we want Biden to be investigated. Consider doing the same w/ your reps.

Socialist-Dems have stepped up their efforts at Trump bashing & attempts at a Communist take-over of America. Most people can see through their never-ending coue attempts & frankly we're sick of them.
