U.S. headed toward welfare state

Adolf Hitler and Josef Stalin both came to power in Germany and the Soviet Union by eliminating the opposition party. In the process, they started what is referred to as welfare states where everything from employment, production and innovation is controlled by the government.

Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is starting the same process that Hitler and Stalin did in the 1930s. She is eliminating the Republican Party's influence in the House. Under new rules proposed by Pelosi, the minority party (Republicans) will not be able to offer any substantive altering of any bill presented to the House members. Pelosi states that this will allow all of the Democratic impending agendas not to be delayed once Barack Obama assumes the presidency. These new rules also remove the term limits of the House committee chairman. The Democrats have taken control of the United States.

With the Democrats in control, the United States will become the United State. The Democratic agenda is to make every person, business and project dependent on the government. Republican Congressional districts will receive nothing from the government. That is the way Pelosi wants it and she has no opposition.
