One of the presidents listed below is labeled a socialist tyrant by supporters of the other. Can you guess which one? When you lay it all out, you see just how extreme and how ignorant political discourse in America has become.
President A
1.) Created the largest federal expansion into a national education system in American history that centralizes all primary educational institutions and erodes local control.
2.) Created the largest federal expansion into civil rights since the Alien and Sedition Acts. Creates federal power to detain people indefinitely, obtain and read private correspondences and wiretap communication all without warrants. This is done to keep us safe.
3.) Ruled by the indefinite right to invade any country under the guise of "preventive war." This is done to keep us safe.
4.) Instituted the largest federal expansion of prescription drug coverage in 40 years. A program that is single payer and fully government-run and that adds hundreds of billions of dollars to the national deficit.
5.) Redistributed over $1 trillion of American tax payer wealth to foreign countries to wage endless war, build roads, schools, bridges, mosques, and other infrastructure as well as to pay for and train national police forces and military personnel. This is done to keep us safe.
6.) Instituted 8 tax payer funded takeovers of private industry including the takeover of 234 private banks-- all with tax payer money. By far the largest federal expansion into the American free market economy ever.
President B
1.) Instituted $787 billion "stimulus bill" to revive the American economy. Directs tax payer money to be spent on tax payers and on American soil rather than in foreign countries. Compare to number 5 above.
2.) Followed through with $80 billion auto industry bailout setup under previous administration's TARP.
3.) On the verge of signing the most sweeping personal expansion of medical insurance coverage in American history. A program that will reduce the deficit by hundreds of billions of dollars and will ban insurance companies from denying coverage.
Which president is the socialist tyrant and which one is the greatest president ever? Anything left out? Any changes need to be made?
