There\u2019s a dwindling deep-pocket supply of rich people to confiscate wealth from so long as one of their dollars is left in the bank. There\u2019s a few American businesses still profitable and we\u2019d better take those profits for the common good before they have a chance to hide them in some other non-socialist-paradise of a country. There\u2019s still remnants of the American military and defense system to dismantle to make funds available for entitlement redistributions and who cares about jihad and other workplace violence anyway? There\u2019s still some un-stoned people and plenty of states in which to spread recreational drugs to experiment with on the children who survived their parents right to abortion. There are still some human activities that have not been regulated and we need to write more regulations and laws to put controls on those pesky freedoms. And don\u2019t forget the majority of voters in America who are net recipients of government redistributions and who must be mollified. We wouldn\u2019t want to have riots now would we?<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re not done yet! Move on! March on! Jihad on! Progress now! America is not dead yet! There\u2019s still a few drops of American blood flowing there to suck out of her corpse.<\/p>\n<p>So step up comrades and cheerfully surrender those IRAs and 401Ks, those family businesses and farms, those paid up property deeds, and all that freedom &#8211; the products of your life&#8217;s work &#8211; the  spoils of your rigged system with its income inequalities and systemically oppressive hegemonic white-Euro-male-dominated social injustices. Pony up and put a patriotic smile on your face!
