This Is How to Stop the Socialist Juggernaut
Chris Talgo
The victory of Abdul El-Sayed in the Democratic Party primary for U.S. Senate in Michigan confirms that socialism is gaining a foothold in America.
Never mind that El-Sayed coyly claims that he is a “capitalist,” not a socialist nor a member of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA). His policy platform reveals the truth.
El-Sayed favors wealth redistribution via “wealth taxes” and a massive welfare state including universal childcare, universal pre-K, free college, Medicare for All, more federal housing and rent subsidies, and “income protection programs such as wage insurance and basic income.”
He also favors centralization of power. Packing the Supreme Court, abolishing the Senate filibuster, abolishing ICE, and granting mass amnesty “for those who are stuck in limbo in our current system,” are just the starters.
And he believes that “climate change” is a “dire global threat.” Thus, he favors “100 percent renewable energy” anchored “in massive investment in solar, wind, and battery storage, a modernized smart grid, and the energy efficiency upgrades that put money back in families’ pockets.” Say hello to the Green New Deal.
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY-14), Our Revolution, and many other climate/socialist organizations endorsed and financially supported El-Sayed’s campaign.
El-Sayed, technically not officially affiliated with the DSA, certainly benefited mightily from the disturbing socialist groundswell that is engulfing the Left and the youth.
