Lenin’s Socialism Rewired by Today’s Democrats’ Socialism

How does this happen? Why are citizens complacent regarding their nation’s existence?

Catch the car thief. Find the missing child. But when the government wants to reconstruct where ordinary citizens have been, Americans should remember two beautiful words our Founders would appreciate: Flock you.
