Socialists are wimps. They don’t have the guts to personally take
money and property from other people. That is why they have the government
do it for them. http://rexcurry.net/socialistwimps.html
That's why they support price controls, taxation, laws against self-defense,
the socialist slave system, etc., Socialists don't think ahead, and don't
make arrangements for their wives, children or grandchildren (they steal
from their children and grandchildren and everyone else’s) as they whine
for government to steal money from other people to give to them. Socialism
is simply a government system of theft and violence by cowardly criminals,
and that is why it causes shortages, poverty, misery, starvation, atrocities
and mass slaughter. Socialists are cowards who always get the government
to do their dirty work for them --to steal goods and services from other
people. Socialists don't have the balls to steal goods and services
on their own because they know what would happen: the individual right of
self-defense and the 2nd amendment from free people who are preserving their
own lives and the lives of their own wives, children and grandchildren, by
protecting their own goods/property/assets. That's why cowards are socialists.
So the next time you hear a socialist advocating yet another government tax
or program, say to him/her, “why don’t you have the guts to come over here
and try to take the money out of my pocket yourself ? Are you so much of
a coward that you have to get the government to steal for you?”
A search for the phrase “socialists are wimps” on the
web and newsgroups reveals that http://rexcurry.net is one of only three locations
to express the sentiment, and is the only site to express the sentiment in
the manner above.
There is one other website that came close with the phrase
“democratic socialists are cowards.” The sentiment also applies to republican
socialists who are outspending the socialist Clinton by more than double.

To the Editor:
The headline of your report on Mayor Lawrence Morrissey of Rockford, IL,
spending time in Washington begging pooh-bahs there for money speaks volumes:
"Wish List in Hand, Mayor Travels to Washington and Finds He’s Not Alone"
(January 24).
Mayor Morrissey's use of his time seeking government handouts is an ideal,
if unintentional, tribute to a great son of Rockford, the economist Gordon
Tullock. Forty-two years ago, in one of the most important papers published
in economics during the 20th century, Tullock identified the phenomenon of
"rent-seeking."* Rent-seekers generate huge amounts of waste by using
resources to plead for handouts. It's not so much the actual transfers
from taxpayers to successful supplicants that are wasteful, Tullock showed,
but the fact that the prospects of receiving these transfers prompt producers
to form themselves into special-interest groups. These interest groups
divert the time and resources that they, as producers, would have spent doing
socially productive things - such as administering cities efficiently - into
lobbying for government favors. Successful rent-seekers benefit, but
the diversion of resources from productive uses into pleading and pandering
at the feet of politicians makes society poorer.

(It's a travesty that Gordon Tullock has never won the Nobel Prize).
A person wrote to me to argue that the National Socialist German
Workers' Party was not socialist. http://rexcurry.net/socialistNSGWP.html
The following is my response:
Your effort to defend and rehabilitate the National
Socialist German Workers' Party by asserting that they are not socialist is
bizarre. Granted, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics murdered more
people (~60 million deaths, 1917-'87) and the People's Republic of China murdered
more people (~50 million, 1949-'87) than did the the National Socialist
German Workers' Party (~20 million, 1933-'45), however that does not make
the latter "not socialist" simply because of the lesser numbers killed, nor
does it exclude the latter from the trio of socialist atrocities involved
in the socialist Wholecaust (of which the Holocaust was a part) at http://rexcurry.net/socialists.jpg
