The Fall of Democracy

"So this is how democracy ends... With thunderous applause."

The first black man in American history has won the white house. While there maybe a certain amount of pride that we can take in this accomplishment there are many concerns. Not at all because he is black. But rather because of what his world view is. Socialism. It is a great idea but only in a perfect world. Anyone who has lived longer than a minute could attest that the world is not perfect. In a imperfect world the examples of socialism are all disastrous. I know I will be thought of as a conspiracy theorist. Democracy is standing on the edge of a knife. There are only a few things that would need to happen that would lead to a dictatorship. For example an attack on America by Russia or another power. With legislation in effect that allows the president to assume a military state under FEMA. With him as the supreme commander. Then it is a rather quick decay into tyranny. Read Plato's Republic. It contains an insightful look into the decay of government into tyranny. I hope that we don't see that in our country.
