Article from Reason by John Stossel and Joshua Swain.
Socialism, Nazism, progressivism… these “isms” do so much damage. But people still believe. Matt Kibbe of Free the People created a video series called “The Deadly-isms” to inform people about them.
Pundits talk about these things in terms of right vs left, but Kibbe points out “when you think about it, they sort of feel the same. You still have government control of businesses and factories, you still have no freedom of speech… no freedom of association, there’s hardly any freedom at all.”
America has been spared totalitarianism and the other worst “isms” of the world, but John Stossel says it does have it’s own “ism’s” to worry about, like crony capitalism, crapitalism, corporatism.
Kibbe describes corporatism as “big business in cahoots with big government, fixing prices, raising costs, screwing the competition.”

I disagree that any of the Isms cited in the video are right wing philosophies. They are ALL left wing. Some are more virilent & more violent than others but they all stem from left wing philosophies of wanting to centralize control their societies .
There are really only two choices
1. Accept the love of God by receiving Jesus as your Savior and live your life for HIM
2. Fight, scrape, scratch, steal and work with all you being to “get ahead” and accumulate wealth and power. Only to die and leave it all to fools, lawyers and the government.
That is it. NOTHING ELSE.
