Sen. Bernie Sanders and the socialists successfully convinced millions of Americans that America could not accept the fact and cannot be the country that the 1/10 of 1% of the top rich owned as much wealth as the bottom 90%. This fact is strong enough to persuade Americans that there is a real economic inequality and that the rich Americans are greedy and are not willing to share their wealth to the poor.
So Americans need to create a new culture or to be exact a socialist culture with social ownership and big government where wealth and social benefits are going to be equally distributed to the people. Unfortunately, this socialist culture is always short-lived, disastrous and it has never been sustainable in the socialist countries and the former ones in more than one-century of the socialist existence.
Americans would soon re-realize that thanking to the Christian teachings, practices and influences, American culture and Western cultures that have been strongly influenced by Christianity, offer better cultures of economic opportunities, wealth distribution, benevolences, social welfares, appreciation of human values, respect of human rights, and exercise of freedoms than any socialist nations could do.
American would soon find out that the American government does belong to Americans more than it does to the people in socialist countries. In the socialist countries, the government did and does belong to the political party and the socialist leaders. The socialist government does protect the political party, the ideology and the socialist leaders more than the will of the common people.
American would soon conclude that Americans share more wealth than people in the socialist nations. Americans bless nations of the world more than people in the socialist countries could do. Majority of Americans are above the poverty lines while the majority of people in socialist countries are still under poverty lines. The wealth gap in the socialist countries is even wider than the wealth gap in America.
Americans would soon realize that the rich in the capitalist country like America make million lives in America and around the world to be stable, rich, equal and comfortable while in socialist countries, small groups of socialist leaders control and corrupt the wealth of the nation. The socialist leaders are filthy rich but leaving millions of people in unemployment, poverty, miseries and gloomy future.
Americans would soon know that the wealth of the socialist leaders, their children and family members in socialist countries are corrupted and transferred into the hands of the greedy socialist leaders at the sufferings and injustices of millions of people. The sharing of wealth in socialist countries is a familiar concept but still a distant reality and the exploitation of people’s wealth is a common practice.
At the current, American socialists did not tell Americans the truth that, “Socialism and its twin partner communism cannot be separated, and in fact socialism has its modern roots in the Communist Manifesto. It was there that Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels laid the blueprint for a type of socialism that called for total social change and class warfare” according to Michael E. Telzrow on New American.
American socialists did not tell Americans the truth that socialism failed in all countries where socialism was applied. It failed in former Soviet Union. It failed in Eastern Europe. It failed in East Germany. It failed in Asia. It failed in Africa. It failed in South American. Is there any logical reason that socialism would be successful in America when it only created inequalities, sufferings, injustices and wealth gap?
American socialists did not tell Americans that the people in socialist countries and former socialist countries also received those nice and similar promises before. Unlike Americans, those people not only experienced those empty promises but they also experienced the painful truths of socialism and the oppressions of greedy and cruel socialists who promised glory and equality, but tragedies are the endings.
American socialists did not tell Americans that the persecution, oppressions and the losses of many freedoms were the main reasons why so many people were and are willing to run away from socialist countries. The escapes were not fun and easy but were risky and dangerous and the people must face with many horrible consequences and deadly situations but they risked their lives for freedom call.
Their freedom of speech is speechless and is forbidden to say anything about the failures and bad policies of socialism. Their freedom of press is the oppression and pressures toward people who raised their voices against the cruelty and impossibility of socialism. Their freedom of peaceful gathering is the suppression and tortures of peacemakers, politically freedom fighters, and human right activists.
Their freedom of trials by the jury is to be trialed according to the will and the dictates of the socialist leaders. Their freedom to pursue happiness is only confined in the prospect of the socialist ideology and the political party. Their freedom of religions is limited and persecuted at the will of the socialist leadership. Their freedom for life is to obey the commands of the socialist regime.
These were the reasons why people of the free worlds witnessed the great exodus of millions of the socialist victims to run for their lives from the socialist regimes and tyrannies to American and many free nations. These reasons were the really struggles for millions of people in the past and it is still the struggles of millions of people to make such a decision to flee from the current socialist nations.
The nations have seen the great and massive exodus of millions of people from socialist countries in decades. Whether these people were running from Europe, Asia, or Latin America or South America nations such as Cuba, El Salvador, former Soviet Union or Venezuela, they all run for life. The people of the socialist countries were and are still running away from the socialist countries due to the tyrannies.
The people long to take over the country as soon as possible because they now understand what is the meaning of real freedoms after so many years of being manipulated, indoctrinated, dreamed, deceived, oppressed and coerced. How long do the struggles of powers last? History showed that no socialist country could last more than a century. So, it still takes a few more decades for people to suffer then.
For the mean time, people and victims must find way to make an escape or they just wait for the time or they will continue to fight until they could obtain full freedom. Others may be still hesitate or wonder what to do while some people must make quick, fast and decisive decisions. You may find more stories from the escapes of people from socialist countries in our book “The 12 Commandments of Socialism.”
Linda and almost 400 people got into that destiny ship. Unlike thousands of boats that were small, unfit and unequipped for the open sea, her boat was a lot bigger and better and it was packed with people when it was supposed to carry about 100 people. The sailors led the boat quickly to the international sea after 10 hours. The people were relieved and were so happy to be free from the grips of the socialists.
They were safe they thought and they were hoping that they would soon land at a neighboring country that could welcome them before their transition to the third world or it would be better if the boat of a free nation could take them directly to the free world. Yet, they did not know that they were now entering the most dangerous areas with so many pirates and most cruel and dangerous ones: Thailand pirates.
