Welcome to the United Soviet States, or something like that.

Bharat Ramamurti, will be, shortly, the deputy director of Biden's National Economic Council. Just so you understand who they are appointing (no one elected him), he was the force behind Elizabeth Warren's wealth tax. That sounded too much like socialism for most people, but, they now know they have to disguise it better.

Here’s his plan, which you can easily find online (I did at "A Biden economic appointee explains how a 'true new deal' plan uses 9 reforms to rebuild wealth for all Americans (msn.com)" :

  • Canceling student, housing, and medical debts - and implementing structural change to address the accumulation of debt;
  • Creating a federal jobs guarantee;
  • Federalizing and expanding unemployment insurance;
  • Building a modern Reconstruction Finance Corporation;
  • Guaranteeing universal childcare;
  • Mandating sectoral bargaining;
  • Ensuring corporate accountability through federal chartering;
  • Reinvigorating antitrust law for real trust-busting; an
  • Rebalancing political power through institutional reform.

It all sounds so innocent, doesn’t it. “Guarantees” sounds nice. So does “accountability.” And what could be wrong with “rebalancing” and “reform?”

So, let’s get this straight. Everyone can go to school for free, live somewhere for free, get medically treated for free, has a federal job no matter who they are or what they’ve accomplished in life (which means we have to tremendously increase the federal government that Reagan and Clinton said was way too big), have their kids looked after for free; the businesses are subject to federal chartering (in other words, the government controls business, real-trust busting and, my favorite, “Rebalancing political power through institutional reform,” which I’ll get to.

In other words, if you weren’t paying attention, no more merit, essentially, no more capitalism, folks. The government pretty much controls everything. They are just not going to say it or use the word socialism. You can go to school for free, get a guaranteed job (so, the federal gov’t, who will also have power over businesses through the "charter" will be taking over pretty much everything). I think we all know that “real trust-busting” won’t be against those who mean to help the Democrats/socialist/communists retain power, forever.

What do you think “Ensuring corporate accountability through federal chartering” means? Hmm? Oh, you can’t have your corporation if you don’t do what the federal charterers (read, commissars) want you to do, hire who they say, no doubt based on skin color and ethnicity. Or their families. We know the Bidens are good at that.

Do you not know what “mandating sectoral bargaining” means? It means they will be mandating unionism (and, remember, the businesses existence depends on pleasing their federal over-seers).

Now, what do you think rebalancing political power means? Why does it need to be re-balanced? Isn't that why we have elections. Can't have that anymore, right. What do they mean by institutional reform? Hmmm? Pack the Supreme Court? Add D.C. as a state so you get two more votes in the Senate? Make California 3 states and add two more? Oh, I see. Rebalancing by institutional means, means they control all forms of government regardless of how people vote. Got it.

It doesn’t matter if I "get it." If the idiot Republicans in congress (many, if not most of them) don’t figure this out, call it out for what it is, we are all in a lot of trouble. We won’t be fighting Communist China anymore, because we will be a version of it. Even Russia will be appalled by us.

We just saw what worked in Trump’s economy, before the pandemic. It helped everyone, including the minorities that the left likes to pretend Trump didn't like. 

And please don't believe them for a second when they tell you this isn't what it means. Remember, these are the same people who tried to interpret the 25th amendment to mean they didn't need to impeach, they could have a coup by VP and cabinet anytime they wanted. The same people who say that impeachment means anything they wanted.

About Me

My photo
I started this blog in September, 2006. Mostly, it is where I can talk about things that interest me, which I otherwise don't get to do all that much, about some remarkable people who should not be forgotten, philosophy and theories (like Don Foster's on who wrote A Visit From St. Nicholas and my own on whether Santa is mostly derived from a Norse god) and analysis of issues that concern me. Often it is about books. I try to quote accurately and to say when I am paraphrasing (more and more). Sometimes I blow the first name of even very famous people, often entertainers. I'm much better at history, but once in a while I see I have written something I later learned was not true. Sometimes I fix them, sometimes not. My worst mistake was writing that Beethoven went blind, when he actually went deaf. Feel free to point out an error. I either leave in the mistake, or, if I clean it up, the comment pointing it out. From time to time I do clean up grammar in old posts as, over time I have become more conventional in my grammar, and I very often write these when I am falling asleep and just make dumb mistakes. It be nice to have an editor, but . . . .
