Socialists are Suffering More

Even the New York Times is admitting that Europe's socialist nations are having a harder time with the recession than are the capitalist nations. They then find an inane way of blaming it on the conservatives. The logic they use is stunningly obtuse. According to the New York Times decades of the socialism is not relevant to their current situations; only the current conservative leaders are to blame. We hear that same kind of logic from the current administration.

John F. Kennedy and Hubert Humphrey would be considered conservatives in today's political climate. In the 1960's they were considered liberals. This is evidence that the whole political spectrum in the US has shifted dramatically to the left over the last 40 years. According to pop culture this has nothing to do with our current problems; instead the Bush Administration (hardly conservative) is to blame for everything.

In reading the New York Times article you have to read between the lines to get to the truth. Focus on the facts and ignore the editorial comments and you will see that socialism is the cause of their problems. Imagine how bad it must be if the New York Times is barely able to hide the real cause - liberalism just doesn't work.
