Satan is the father of lies; one of the worst is COMMUNISM.
Communism KILLS. Karl Marx blamed the world’s problems on class warfare: the rich have the capital (money) and keep the poor impoverished, jealous, and resentful. Marx invented COMMUNISM: everyone works, the government takes everything, and then hands out money in a way that is “fair.” But humans are CORRUPT and people end up MISERABLE.
Marx defends killing property owners, the religious, and other troublemakers—and the numbers are unbelievable. Where Nazism killed 8 million, Communism has slaughtered 100 million(!)—and the numbers keep climbing.
(The notion that Communism is an economic system is just a cover story—this is a GENOCIDE system!)
Communism FAILS. Workers know that no matter how hard they work, they will be paid the same. Thus, they become lazy, refusing to work a second longer than their laziest neighbors. The result is a nation where no one works and there are shortages of EVERYTHING, especially food. People starve and the nation goes bankrupt. That Communist or “collectivist” process killed the USSR. But Communist China has survived by letting people keep a small fraction of what they earn, thus creating INCENTIVE. People work hard when they know they will enjoy some fruits of their labor.
“Capitalism” was Marx’s insulting name for our system, but incentive-based Capitalism was God’s plan:
“Who plants a vineyard and does not eat its fruit? Who shepherds a flock and does not drink the milk?… He who plows ought to plow in hope [of harvesting], and he who threshes should do so in hope of sharing the grain” 1 Corinthians 9:7-10.
“If any man will NOT work, neither let him eat” 2 Thessalonians 3:10.
The Bible has the answers for EVERYTHING, even global economics. Have you figured that out yet? It is not just happy thoughts to read snuggled in your recliner with a cup of coffee.
This ain’t a poetry reading! This is the OWNERSHIP MANUAL for life on earth: politics, criminal justice, history, psychology, art theory, education, family life—it’s all there.
