This is an excellent cartoon from 1948 warning Americans of all the “-ism’s”that are being thrown around and what they mean to us….how soon we forget. It is well worth the nine minutes that it will take to watch it. We often do not consider the consequences of the actions that we take.
This is a FANTASTIC little cartoon! There are a lot of people out there who don’t like the words “socialism” or “communism” or “Marxism” or whatever other isms there are but they do buy into the idea that big governments will nurture social equality and resolve the social and economic problems in our lives.
Many people in America have yet to make the connection that the bigger the government is or the more the government attempts to solve our domestic problems, the more freedom they have to take from the citizens; its a give and take equation.
Governments that take this approach to problem solving all fit into one of the “ISMS”. What has made America great is that our cure for problems has not been an “ISM” but individual liberty to overcome our problems how we see fit.
MAKE MINE FREEDOM!
