From Now This Impact
Since it's another slow news day (at least in the Washington area) I wanted to take this opportunity to be able to write anything that's not related to Donald J. Trump. I want to try to get over my "Trump derangement syndrome" and try to detox and at least for 1 day try to imagine that America's version of Godzilla and King Kong (combined into 1 man) doesn't actually exist.
What better day in the year to be able to talk about anything else in the world, other than Donald J. Trump, then on the only American holiday that Socialists actually support, which of course would be Tax Day. (If Tax Day ever became a national holiday)
Oh, yes, Tax Day, that 1 day in the year when Socialists get together and celebrate that they just paid their taxes and celebrate that over their favorite imported French wine, or coffee and cheese, that very few people in this country can actually afford. Funny how Socialists never feel the need to share their favorite food and drinks, when they're celebrating.
Just to respond to something that Zachary Rants said: why is it that Socialists can't handle being called Socialists? Well, some Socialists can't handle being called Socialists. But their grandfather Bernie Sanders and grandmother Jill Stein have no issues with that term. Neither does their sister Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, or the Democratic Socialists of America.
It's not like the police will be knocking on the door if they find out that you are a Socialist and will arrest you for that. Unless of course you are an immigrant and ICE, perhaps the FBI will bulldozer your door down if they find out you are a Socialist and try to deport you simply for that. (Welcome to El Salvador! We take anyone that Donald J. Trump doesn't want) Come out of the political closet already and show off your DSA membership cards, with your fist in the air and be proud of who you are, already!
But with closeted Socialists in America, being called a Socialist, is like finding out that you have cancer, or being indicted for rape, or something. They just can't handle that. Even though a lot of young hipsters in America think socialism is like the new hip hop, or valley culture or something... "this is who the cool people are."
I believe every American in their right mind, who also happens to be competent, (which seems like a smaller club everyday) doesn't mind paying what they can afford in taxes, that still allows for them to put money away and enjoy life... just as long as those taxes are going to good use. What makes most of the country different from Socialists, is we don't celebrate taxes and being forced to give our money to Uncle Sam or any other government. It's something that we do, so we can live in a free, safe, progressive society, that benefits as many people as possible.
