Look out workers at The Voice. If ”The Chas” Coddington had it his way, he would take the paper and make it an employee-owned and operated state publication. He would then have you work for The Voice as an employee for wages he would determine for you. And if The Voice netted $500,000 dollars or more in annual revenues, he would target this publication for seizure. This is what communists do when taking over capitalists, and “The Chas” is a commie. He wants to be your Stalin. P.S. Be careful, don’t grow too big.
“The Chas,” is a frequent contributor of nonsense to this publication. He prides himself as a benevolent Marxist, just as Hugo Chavez did in Venezuela. Coddington would nationalize our Nation’s banks and make them a part of the “Department of Treasury.” The U.S. government would become your banker. What could go wrong? Coddington would shut down the stock markets and stock exchanges because they would be of no purpose once he nationalized/seized all corporations of our Free Enterprise System. In case you’re not familiar with the term “nationalization” …it is the take-over of corporations and businesses which can extend to the entire private sectors of a country through seizure and or eminent domain. Privately run businesses and corporations would then be owned and operated by a Communist dictatorship. Impossible you say? This happened in Venezuela 25 years ago.
Could this happen in the U.S.? Look at N.Y. mayor Zohran Mamdani’s Democratic Party and where it is going for your answer. This happened gradually in Venezuela until president Hugo Chavez tipped over the last domino in 1999 making Venezuela a totalitarian communist state. This also happened in the Eastern Block countries of Europe after World War Two. Venezuela was the fifth most prosperous country in the world until the communist take-over. Chavez seized the oil companies first. Then the entire private sector was nationalized and everything in the country was owned by Chavez and his communist regime. Who are the greedy ones Charlie? Then something strange happened. The zoo animals in Venezuela started to disappear. No, they didn’t escape their cages. They were being eaten by starving Venezuelans.
Our greedy Capitalistic system, as Coddington characterizes it, keeps the American people at the highest standard of living in the world. We are free to work and educate ourselves. We are free to create our own businesses. We are free to invest. We are free to decide how and where to live and work. Our private sector is growing, so individual wealth is growing. Many countries have invested trillions of dollars into this U.S. economy, this year, because it is the best in the world. Commie Coddington and the Democrats want to destroy it all and resurrect our country as a communist country in which the rights of individuals to prosper are dead and buried.
Leftists hate the creation of personal wealth, unless they can seize it. This is why the personal property of Venezuelans and their businesses were nationalized. It is the communists who are greedy for our wealth and labor. History has proven this. They prove it every time they tax us. So, dear reader, if your plan is to share your wealth with everyone in this country, Coddington, Mamdani, and all the other commies will love you. If, however, you want to be free with opportunities to build your own future without big-commie-brother forcing you to share all of what you’ve worked for, then protect your individual freedoms according to our Constitution or Coddington’s dreams of his Utopia would become our national nightmare.
