Individuals calling for a Socialist United States, need to accept the paramount dilemma with this ideal – its incompatibility with Democracy.

Nearly every rational American is familiar with a section of society whose primary goal is to make everyone equal. The difficulty is when such a system is put into action, every individual must be replaced by the State, and as the powers of the State increase, the freedoms of every individual decrease until they completely vanish.

Free will and individual liberty, two of the most important elements of the American democratic ideal, hold no position in the Socialist doctrine, because Socialism does not recognize any form of government but anarchy, which has been widely depicted recently in Portland, Oregon; Seattle, Washington; Chicago, Illinois, and other great American cities currently held hostage by lawless gangs of thugs synonymous with the Bolsheviks. These factions are just as brutal as the Bolsheviks of the early 20th-century were. Far left radicals who seek to take control and eradicate free will and individual liberty.

Natural Law decrees that every individual is free to work out their destiny, to look upon all crises of civilization, both great and small, as turning points that a free People, having free will, for better or worse, are free to exercise free choice; to live freely and pursue happiness; to enjoy the rewards of their labor. But to deny such Rights, to take away their wealth, their property, or their very life, is equal to placing them into slavery. As Socialists place more restrictions on the People, the less likely they will discover and pursue their own potential.

“Human beings are born with different capacities. If they are free, they are not equal. And if they are equal, they are not free.” – Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
