Fears regarding Democrats and socialism are overblown – The Daily Herald

Category: Socialism

I keep seeing folks worried sick that the Democrats will bring us socialism. When I hear that I think back to when Bob Hope said he wasnt a bit worried about socialism as long as skilled tradesmen were making $40,000 a year. This was back when that was a real good living wage.

I also read a book once that was titled Lenin in Zurich by Alexander Solzhenitsyn. It was amusing reading about Lenins frustration trying to enlist Swiss workmen in communism. Workers there had it pretty darn good and didnt want any changes. I dont believe the United States will ever be a real socialist country.

Seattle, which is one of the most liberal cities anywhere, is practically lousy with rich capitalists. Many of the richest and most successful people on Earth live in Seattle. I think accusing Trump of being a Nazi or Biden being a socialist is pretty lame. I lived in both liberal West Coast cities and in conservative rural areas in the plains states and I met nice people both places.
