Episode 888:
President Trump verbally blew up the UN on Tuesday with a lot of his remarks, but one of my favorite comments was the one about socialism. Venezuela has been on a 40 plus year slide into socialism, and president Trump pointed out how faithful they have been to the ideas of socialism.
Whenever socialism is implemented politically and economically, the nation that follows this path will always fail. If they are one of the few nations who were fortunate enough to stop their slow slide into socialism, it takes years to recover and get back on track.
America has plenty of history to study to determine if socialism works or not. Yet we have a big portion of our society who see nothing wrong with socialism. We have politicians who have no problem using tax dollars to buy votes through social programs, and make those social programs sound good. We need to do a better job of preaching and teaching the virtues of capitalism, freedom, and liberty. If we fail to turn the hearts and minds of Americans away from socialism, we will end up in the ash bin of history.
Daily Bible Reading: Jeremiah 1:4-10 Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying: 5 “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.” 6 Then said I: “Ah, Lord GOD! Behold, I cannot speak, for I am a youth.” 7 But the LORD said to me: “Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’ For you shall go to all to whom I send you, And whatever I command you, you shall speak. 8 Do not be afraid of their faces, For I am with you to deliver you,” says the LORD. 9 Then the LORD put forth His hand and touched my mouth, and the LORD said to me: “Behold, I have put My words in your mouth. 10 See, I have this day set you over the nations and over the kingdoms, To root out and to pull down, To destroy and to throw down, To build and to plant.”
