Is This Socialism?
It seems like every month something new comes out of the White House that causes me to shake my head. Pres. Biden continues to say “I am not a socialist” but most of his executive orders, memorandums, and proclamations paint a different story.
Let’s evaluate Pres. Biden’s agenda and government policies with socialistic goals:
Let’s evaluate Pres. Biden’s agenda and government policies with socialistic goals:
COVID – The Biden administration required vaccinations, forced masking, forced closure of churches, schools, and businesses. People were fired from jobs, denied transplant surgery, and demoted for not taking shots. Many prominent doctors, scientists and ordinary citizens were banned from social media for comments that opposed the government’s views.
MEDIA – We became aware that all major media networks (ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN) and social media were being controlled by the Biden government to kill information about COVID, Hunter’s laptop, Clinton’s disposal of official documents, Biden’s family interests in China, etc. The media is used as an arm of the Democratic Party to disparage Pres. Trump, the MAGA republicans, and any patriots that might align themselves with Christianity and Conservative thoughts. We no longer have freedom of speech. |
DEFUND POLICE – Police were described as being racist, white bullies and thus should be eliminated. Now that the police force has been reduced, there is chaos in the streets, vandalism, crime, demonstrators that burn their cities and murder. But Biden’s administration wants to increase policing of the IRS to get the tax dollars we supposedly are hiding.
NO JUSTICE – This administration is good at seeking out and capturing protestors at the Capitol, but can’t seem to find, or punish, ANTIFA or BLM protestors who destroy personal property. Churches are being burned and defaced with LGBTQia2s+ graffiti signs and no one is ever found. Even Pres. Biden honors and invites to the White House people who have broken laws of decorum before even recognizing the victims of transgender shooter. |
GAS PRICES – We all know that the price of fuel is caused by shutting down production of oil and inflation caused by the Biden’s administration excessive and reckless spending. We no longer are the major producer of clean oil, but a major purchaser of dirty oil. Our oil reserve for emergency use is being depleted.
CARS – Biden has made the decision that we are not to drive gasoline cars anymore and has instructed automotive companies to start making electric cars. He is determined to get rid of pollution by forcing us to buy electric cars or trucks. I have a F150 and would have to pay at least $87,000 to replace it! Where are the batteries coming from??? CHINA!! So, we get poorer and China gets richer. Let’s not even talk about the children in Africa that have to mine for the cobalt.

GAS STOVES – Don’t say “So what?” If you have never cooked on a gas stove, I can’t explain. The question is “Where is my freedom of choice?” NO MORE INCANDESANT LIGHT BULBS - Yes, they won’t be produced anymore. Biden wants us installing “flickering” fluorescent and bright, blue light LED’s. If you want soft light, buy candles while you can. |
TEACHER POWER OVER PARENTS - Biden’s “Their all our children” speech should help you recognize that the government run schools want to “raise up a child in the way they should go and when they are old they will not depart from it.” (Prov 22:6). But that excludes the parents. Children are allowed by the government to change their names, sex, receive medical aid for abortion, contraceptives, and transexual surgery without parents’ consent or knowledge. Students receive transexual counseling and LGBTQAI2+ advocacy. ABORTIONS – Biden is committed to providing government funding for all abortions. |
AMERICAN FAMILIES PLAN – Biden’s plan to provide free education from preschool through college. After 18+ years in public education, students will be completely programmed into a socialistic, worldly non-believer. They even plan to set up daycare centers and will provide qualified workers.
DEVELOPING OF HISTORY CURRICULUM – The Department of Education is using taxpayer dollars to create their own history books that portray Pres. Trump and his MAGA followers as a radical, racist group of bigots.
GREEN DEAL ENFORCEMENT – The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), in order to reach already-stated targets, would require closing 11 coal or gas plants every month from now until 2035. They have created the Next Generation Compliance plan to monitor facilities to make sure they are in compliance to Green laws.
GOOD CREDIT SCORE PAY MORE Starting May 1st, those with credit score ranging. –from 680 to above 780 will see a spike in mortgage costs. This extra money will go to pay for affordable housing for those with poor credit scores. Hmm??
TAX CHANGES – The President’s plan is to eliminate the loophole that allows the wealthiest Americans to entirely escape tax on their wealth by passing it down to their heirs. Our present tax laws allow these accumulated gains to be passed down across generations untaxed, seemingly exacerbating inequality. This is what we call inheritance tax and it would be applied to everyone. So, when a family member dies, the inheritance that will be passed down will be taxed. The exception would be farming and ranching land that would not be taxed if the family continues to farm or ranch on that land. So, you are taxed when you make the money and your children are taxed when given their inheritance. |
INCREASE OF WELFARE STATE - From 1977 to 2020, in 2020 inflation-adjusted dollars, state and local government spending on public welfare increased from $147 billion to $791 billion (437 percent increase). This was the largest spending growth of any major expenditure program over this period and with the increase in population through our “open borders” welfare will continue to rise.
BORDER CRISIS – The Biden administration does not believe and will not admit that there is a border crisis and we have to ask...WHY? How does the Democratic Party benefit from the chaos, the increase in population and welfare needs, child trafficking, drugs that kill our people which come from China, and invasion of citizens’ property. Are they simply hoping for the immigrants’ vote in the next election? Or are the immigrants, like Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D) said, “needed in America because they....pick the food we eat, clean our homes, and rebuild our communities after climate disasters”? This sounds like slave labor (industrial armies) that socialists desire. |
I know there are some in our country who support changing to socialism. I know that to a great extent, our country is already socialistic. But, let us not forget that in a socialist country you must have a strong, authoritarian leader and party that dictate their policies, justice and rules. This requires the people to have a willingness to give up their freedoms, morals and religious beliefs. These leaders will become even more desirous of power. In the words of Lord Acton, “Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely.”
We see so much animosity in our country because there is a struggle going on between the world and the kingdom of Christ. Christ came to set us free. Marx and Engels came to establish a godless society, where people are controlled. God says, “if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and restore their land.” (2 Chronicles 7:14) We need restoration of our country to the values and morals of the Kingdom of God.
