Sir Winston Churchill made these statements:
1. "Socialism is the philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance and the gospel of envy - its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery."
2. "If I were asked the difference between Socialism and Communism, I could only reply that the Socialist tries to lead us to disaster by foolish words and the Communist drives us there by violent deeds."
3. "Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the State."
Is this where our nation is heading and is this what we want? Since Churchill's time, Socialism and Communism have not changed. Yet we seem to be skipping along their paths and forgetting the paths that were taken to have attained this great nation. But we do nothing. We think we have plenty of time, but when fighting these ideologies, time is not with us.
