Born 1944 in upstate New York, USA. European and American Indian heritage. Enjoyed my childhood and by nature I have always been an independent thinker and wanderer. I moved to California in my early 20s where I finished college, worked in high tech, Silicon Valley and enjoyed my life to the fullest. I have always lived each day in my life like it is my last day, I hope that never changes. I now live as an expat in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico but care deeply about the future of the United States of America !
This book provides an important look at the well-being of the current Socialism movement in the United States of America. It is broken into five parts: the history of the framework and foundations of Socialism, an analysis of the major changes that have occurred in the last one hundred years, a look at where Socialism is now in the United States of America, recommendations for saving the Republic from Socialism, and a look at what awaits us in the future of our Nation. The Socialism (Marxist) movement in the mid-1800s evolved into the Progressive movement in the early 1900s and ended up being called the Liberal movement or the Democratic Party in the last 50 years. The movement is currently dropping all pretenses and is starting to call itself Socialist again. They are confident that after ideologically programming a couple generations of socialist useful idiots in our National Education System, they will soon be the majority in the country. Sadly, this may come to fruition. I will refer to these groups as Socialists in this book but all of the previous movement descriptions apply. Since the early 1960s, something has dramatically changed in the deepest levels of American society. After the brief period of Pax Americana in the 1950s, it seemed as if some invisible switch was flipped in the heart of the United States, and the very fabric of the nation began quickly unraveling. Almost overnight, we went from light to darkness, from optimism to pessimism, and from America the Great to America the Guilty. A marvelous trust, a country like no other in the history of mankind has been entrusted to us. A country where we have had the freedom to grow and thrive, to be free to achieve our full potential, to shape the futures of our children and grandchildren that is what is at stake. Freedom of speech, one of our most sacred trusts, is already being taken from us; in its place is politically correct speech, where some minorities can say anything they want without censure or condemnation. A country where all members of mankind are recognized as equal, but certain minorities are protected and have heightened rights is this the intended heritage of our Founders? If we fail to do our duty, we shall be judged much more harshly than any other country in existence, because we have had so much more delivered to us for which we will be held accountable. What shall be our future? We are coming, potentially, to a crossroad in our nation. We are being pushed toward one of three ultimate endgames: the imposition of the socialist state, a conservative reversal of the Nation at the ballot box or another Civil War. Richard Castagnerauthor
The Socialist Indoctrination Process
Born during the 60s radicalism period , the basic socialist indoctrination process, authored by an early radical named Saul Alinsky in his “Rules for Radicals” manifesto, outlines eight levels of community control to transition from capitalism to socialism:
(1) Health care: control health care and you control the people.
(2) Poverty: increase the poverty level as high as possible; poor people are easier to control and will not fight back if
(3) Welfare: take control of every aspect of people’s lives (food, housing, and income). Same goal as (2).
(4) Debt: increase national/personal debt to an unsustainable level. This will produce more poverty.
(5) Gun control: remove people’s ability to defend themselves from the government so that a police state can be created.
(6) Education: take control of what people read and listen to and take control of what children learn in school.
(7) Religion: remove the belief in God from the government and from schools.
(8) Class warfare: divide the people into wealthy and poor, Black and White. These divisions will cause more discontent, and it will be easier to tax the wealthy with the support of the poor.
Do these eight steps look familiar? The Obama presidency and currently the Biden presidency are working very hard to incorporate these steps into our democracy to “fundamentally change” America from a Constitutional Republic to an authoritarian Socialist State.
Health Care System:
The current National Health Care system (Obamacare) is still partially in place with all its problems. Obamacare is failing to meet its promises of cost containment, affordability, and improved quality of care. It will never ensure coverage for all Americans and is unsustainable in the long run. Its flaws are results of political compromises and trade-offs that favor corporate stakeholders in the medical-industrial complex over the needs of patients and their families.
This is not an issue for the founders of Obamacare; their main priority was control, not citizens’ health needs.
Poverty and Welfare Levels:
The list of government giveaways and entitlements is figuratively endless! These government programs have one sinister goal: to increase the number of Americans who rely on the government for everything.
This ever-expanding group of dependent Americans forms the rock-solid voting base of the socialist establishment. Without them, there would be no Democratic Party. This explains the Socialist policy of open borders and sanctuary cities. Example: the government paying illegal aliens to cross our southern border. The careerist socialist politicians know which side of their bread is buttered and will do everything in their power to expand the number of people who are dependent on the government from the day they are born to the day when a future death panel decides they should die.
The socialist political machine can buy the votes of those who are dependent on government handouts by giving them more and more free stuff. It will be difficult, if not impossible, to curb our present ever-expanding welfare state without killing or cutting a few socialist sacred cows along the way. However, kill them or cut them we must if there is to be the slightest chance of reversing America’s slide into international obscurity.
Debt Levels:
Everyone in America needs something, and many people are asking for federal money to fulfill those needs. Even individual states (mainly blue socialist controlled) are on this bandwagon, like California, which is essentially bankrupt from overspending. The socialists are the main cause of overspending and allowing things to get out of control, resulting in an over $20 trillion-dollar national deficit in 2016 under Obama. We are on our way to a $40 trillion-dollar national deficit under Biden. Unfortunately, this stems from four basic flaws: socialism’s plan to bankrupt America, no accountability for what is being spent, everyone’s hand in the pot and the American need to want everything today and not wait for it. America needs to be run like a business, not like a communist or socialist regime, which has failed throughout history, time and again.
One party (socialist Democrats) is guilty of encouraging entitlement and overspending. The concepts of federal entitlement, welfare, food stamps, etc. to assist the needy are important, but they must be managed properly so that people are moved off them over time and become contributors to society. Otherwise, America becomes a country of leeches that feed off the successes of the few. This draws the country down negative paths, and people begin to question the direction of the country. The result is that the status and presence of America as a leader in the global economy are diminished. It is wrong to believe other countries have better answers than America does—one only need to look back on the many successes of America. If we do not reverse this negative course we have set out on, we will continue to spiral downward into a new dark age that will once again stifle the growth of all humans on the planet.
Being equal and poor is not sufficient; being poor with the ability to strive to better oneself, to move up in status, is what America is all about. America is a land of opportunity, and if we are not careful, we will give that away.
Gun Control:
A strong, independent Police Force and National Guard is a necessity in society to protect citizens from domestic enemies.
The police force is locally and regionally controlled and totally separate from military power. The heads of police forces should be elected and governed by local government. Police should be hired by the local government as employees.
The National Guard is state controlled and also totally separate from military power. They report to the governors of the states they are located in.
The death penalty should be automatic if you kill a policeman or National Guard soldier.
Private Citizens should be able to own their own weapons, thus giving everyone the ability to defend themselves from armies that have become pawns of the government. Protecting your property should be an inalienable right.
The current problem: Many of our nation’s Police Forces and National Guards have been commandeered by state socialist bureaucrats; mayors and governors. They implement policies of selective enforcement, stand-downs, police defunding and are becoming pawns for their socialist masters.
Education:
An ignorant people will quickly become an enslaved people. Only an educated populace can be permanently free. What the educational institutions of a country teach lays the foundation for liberty or bondage. In recent years when socialists have taken over countries, one of the first things they have done is assume control of the educational system. Education must not be government controlled; it must stay in the private sector. Even this will not totally solve the problem; the teaching environment and the taught content in America’s schools and universities have been taken over by socialism, feminism and the government during the past one-hundred years.
The debilitating cost of college education is only part of the problem facing the younger generations. The biggest problem with our universities is that they purposefully tear down the values of the students and indoctrinate them with secular, socialist thinking.
“Since the 1960s, young people go off to college with the values instilled in them by their parents, churches, and communities and then emerge with an entirely different set of values. That’s evidence of indoctrination or even brainwashing by our higher education system.”10
This socialist indoctrination process will have a very negative effect on the elections per the voting preferences of this new and younger group of adults called the “lost generation”.
The irony of this situation: Socialism has caused all the problems for this generation, not the conservatives.
Religion:
Except for the socialist secularism and Islam, all other religions are under attack in our republic. Life is often difficult and challenging, and it’s easy to look at the world around us and feel helpless or even hopeless, especially when evil seems to be increasing. Everyone, but children especially, needs regular doses of common-sense moral teachings. Our churches and synagogues used to provide these moral reinforcements, but with the rise of secularism, many people today derive their morals from whatever media and books they consume—most of which are secular or even anti-religious.
Every attempt, therefore, to remove ”The Ten Commandments” and “under God” from our republic means that either anarchism or communism will surely result, whether planned or not, from those who strike at God’s place in American life. It is an inescapable alternative.
Class and Racial Warfare:
When Obama burst onto the national political scene at the Democratic National Convention in 2004, many thought that perhaps he was the one to finally fix the racial problems in America. After all, he appeared to be the ultimate African American, being the son of a Black man from Kenya and a White woman from America. And judging by his campaign, Obama was only too happy to absorb the hopes and dreams of so many Americans in promising to finally bringing racial harmony to the United States. But has he? Not by any measurable means. If anything, racial tensions have only worsened because of his repeated use of class warfare tactics. Obama...
