Fantastic talk, question authority. Take back your voice, stand up against tyranny.

The nationalization of certain industries would be better for our nation. The Defense industry should be nationalized and prohibited from selling arms in the global arms market. Our military should be redesigned to protect the borders of the American nation. This would provide us with more security and would reduce the Defense budget. Ultimately this would be better for us and our nation. Medical care should be nationalized and remodeled after England's and Norway. Energy should be nationalized and shouldn't cost us citizens a cent, it is ours, energy, but it is being sold over duress of us having our utilities shut off. Attorney's services should be nationalized because in America money wins over justice. Those who can afford the best attorneys win. That is not right. The word communism or socialism never needs to be mentioned, they are buzzwords from the 20th century that create too much negative response. I think David should expunge the words communism, Lenin, Marx and collectivism from his presentation because most Americans are poorly informed about revolutionary theory, and immediately turn you off and call you a Red. I just explain the benefits of communism and socialism without calling it that. Like I just did above. I listen more to David than most commentators and the Marxist language invigorates me, but I am one in a million. I believe that Socialism needs to be reinvented for the modern present. Communism will never make it in America except in small clusters here and there. But the American people may move more left, but they'll never go communist. Only intellectuals get excited about Marxism and communism anymore. Liberals have become so hated that a one could turn up lynched to a Saguaro cactus someday.
