Overview

SOCIALISM is still on the up-grade: its literature is increasing, its influence spreading, its advocates multiplying. Books, pamphlets, and newspapers continue to assure us that the dangers to the stability of the social order were never before so serious as they are at the present time. It seems to be taken for granted that class is ranged against class in deadly opposition; that labour has declared war against capital; that the working man is practically in arms against his employer. The cry continues with increasing vehemence, that the rich are becoming richer, and that as a direct result the poor are becoming poorer; that capital is passing into the hands of a few, and that the many are being reduced to a state of slavery or starvation; that with the growth of monopolies and the application of science to the improvement of machinery, labour is becoming scarcer, the number of unemployed increasing, the rate of wages being proportionately lowered, and the condition of the working classes becoming daily worse. With the increasing socialization of the United States, this matter again needs consideration. Obamacare, for instance, is nothing other than socialized medicine in its first steps. The government is increasingly regulating the United States, and we should consider whether or not the course the United States and the world is on is a good one.
