Breaking: America Tests Positive For Socialism

Via The Babylon Bee

U.S.—In a tragic turn of events, America has announced that it has tested positive for socialism.

Many began to suspect America had become infected when the government announced totalitarian lockdowns and a plan to print free money for everyone, and the test results confirmed the worst: most of America is pretty OK with socialism. Healthy countries have developed strong immune systems against socialism and recoil in horror at the thought of living off the government. But when countries’ immune systems begin to be compromised, they start to be apathetic toward socialism and eventually embrace it wholeheartedly.

The disease is thought to be terminal. The only known cure is to cut off the states that have embraced it, but experts believe too much of the country has now been infected for surgery to be a viable solution.

“It’s probably too late to save her,” said one doctor as America’s loved ones wept in a waiting room. “We’ll give you time to grieve.”

Positive for socialism, crony capitalism, economic fascism, Progressivism, totalitarianism, liberalism (not of the classic variety), and statism. The ONLY cure is freedom (from government)…as always.

Idiots like the frickin’ governors of NY and NJ have gone full retard hand-in-hand with the Fed. They’re astronomically increasing the debt while ravaging the workforce. Unlimited bailouts practically guarantee inflation given the new reality of product and service shortages. In the future IF, or WHEN the supply chains stabilize things will be a LOT more expensive and unaffordable for many.

The Bee is cutting it a bit close on that “thin line”, I’d say. It’s light on humor and heavy on the sarcastic side today.
For neo-Bolshevik humor I go to “The People’s Cube”. Too bad admin doesn’t link it here.

America has been socialist in principle since the New Deal. We have Crony Socialism and have had for 80 years.

The creation of the Federal Reserve in 1913 and the Income tax shortly thereafter, laid the critical foundation for it all.
