What could go wrong if you put the fox inside the chicken house?

Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.” Matthew 19:24

By James Thompson

The MSM seems to be beside itself and is twittering and blasting out its astonishment that something has gone wrong in the White House since Donald Trump has assumed the throne. People are talking treason and/or impeachment of this president who was elected by a minority of the voters in the US democracy.

How could this be? What could the voters be thinking of?

People in the US have been dumbed down for many years now. They have been trained by a massive brainwashing campaign carried out by the government on behalf of the bourgeoisie which it serves.

Most people in the US believe that Karl Marx, V. I. Lenin, Frederick Engels, Joseph Stalin and communists in general are villains. However, Marxists have some important lessons to teach. Communists have a long history of fighting for the interests of working people.

For those that listen, Marx taught us that capitalism can only be sustained by theft of the value produced by the workers’ labor. Marx taught us that capitalism is theft and capitalists are thieves.

Nevertheless, the US people persist in their uncritical worship of wealthy people. It is generally believed that wealthy people are superior to working people. They believe that the wealthy have mysteriously earned their income. Few people seem to understand that wealthy people gain their wealth the old-fashioned way, they steal it.

Now, if people will just open their eyes, they will see Donald Trump on the throne, and he has no clothes on. In other words, his ignorance has been projected out for all the world to see. His history of exploiting people to increase his own wealth is visible to all. His disregard for other humans is obvious. He is the same man that bragged that if he shot someone on Fifth Avenue, people would still support him. He is the same man that talked of grabbing women in inappropriate ways just because he could.

People are astounded that Trump may have been mixed up with Russian mobsters and bankers. They are astounded that the healthcare act he proposed was obvious thievery from working people to further enrich the wealthiest people in the country. Perhaps working people will finally get it that wealthy people will always steal working people blind if given the opportunity. Maybe working people will decide that it is time to fight for their own interests instead of licking the boots of the capitalists.
