More Ramblings of Collectivism by Obama

Published by aebersole at 6:00 am under Current News Edit This

 Please watch the video below:

Obama is clearly a follower of what is the most dangerous concept to individual freedom, collectivism. Obama notes that his individual salvation is directly tied to the collective salvation.  So why is this so dangerous? The answer is as follows:

First, he is seeking a purely abstract concept, collectivism. Because of this his goals are doomed before they can begin and he’s being regulated to failure.

Second, he is speaking of salvation for aiding others. It seems as if he sees himself as their savior, the person that can rescue them from the hardships of life. This is a dangerous concept for any one human to behold. It takes away the rational and often forces them into the irrational, based on the abstract concept that they are the only way, the only answer. It is becoming clear that Barack Obama is holding himself to a level of being something more than a leader, he sees himself as being a savior.

Combined with his predetermined failure and the sense that he is destined to succeed, creates an explosive combination. It is the recipe for repression and personal destruction. I hope for Barack’s own personal health that he sees his weakness and corrects this flaw.

As the statement goes…The road to hell is paved with good intentions.

    Hmmm the opposite of a democrat is a republican right? So Obama will save. The opposite of save is? Hmmmm tricky choice for the voters. To be encouraged to take responbility and help save the country from it’s current crisis, or destroy it by walking the same path. Hmmm! Glad I’m not called upon to make that hard decision.

    I can’t even believe how badly these statements are being taken out of context–and I am becoming increasingly angry with people who claim that Obama believes he is the savior. He’s not talking about being “the chosen one,” he’s talking about having a guilty conscience. How are we supposed to exist peacefully in a country full of class disparities that only deepen as time goes on? How is the economy supposed to be rejuvenated if only some people have money and livelihoods while others scramble to make it from day to day. A couple days ago, my boyfriend read an article that claimed the reason why people don’t like the idea of “spreading the wealth” is because they believe that one day they can be wealthy–well, sorry, but that is not the case. And if Obama should point out that this country is divided and some people are treated unfairly or simply left to fend for themselves in an economy that doesn’t cater to their needs, then does that mean he hates white people? No. He’s pointing out a fact. This country is divided and there has to be some way to even the playing field, to give others the opportunities to have what others take for granted.

    If one removes the individual from the town, the town fails to exist, yet the individual remains as they were. Collectivism fails to understand that the individual is the lone tangiable concept of society, everything must and does revolve around it. The crisis we are currently in is the result of exactly the belief that government must help others, because they need it and they hold the power to help….Or in other words they are the savior.
