If you are one who wants to impliment communism in our society, how would you do it? First you must convince the feeble minds that they would be bettered under communism. That is the easy part, for the poor and ignorant fall for that with ease. They are easily drawn in and converted into a force for 'change'.

The harder part is to convince the rest of the populace. How does one do that? Well, if one can reach the pinnacle of authority in this country, all one would have to do is to impliment the things that are unhealthy for a free market (like raising the budget to numbers computers cannot calculate). Then when it fails, he would only have to make the case that, "See, capitolism doesn't work!" Failed policy could be disguised if he could out shout, or falsely disgrace the truly prudent. Then he would simply offer that communism would 'fix' the country's ailing condition. The ignorant, uneducated, and 'dependant' people (who will have been growing in numbers) will easily tip the cart, if he is lucky. That is how the upper hand would be gained.

Now, how does the one disgrace the prudent? One might think that to be hard to do. However, based on the fact that our free market, capitalistic government will only work in an environment wherein those who participate are morally sound, it would be very simple. Blame would be laid at the feet of people who defrauded others. They would be pointed to as a reason why the free market does not work. And it is easy enough to ignore the fact that it does work if the participants are morally responsible. Because to address that would undermine the lie that the aggressor would seek to impose. For if he could impress people that he was correct by assigning blame, while people are distracted (with the help of the damnable press), he could garner support to do the unthinkable.
