Firstly, that is untrue, secondly the distinction you are making does not make sense.
You mean like a people's republic?
Last time I checked something cannot be its own creator.

I would argue that America has been practicing a form of communism for over a century. Why would you be outraged now about something as mundane as the criminals doing business as 'the government' mandating that you take their shitty health insurance?
Surely all the wars, the paper money, the arbitrary seizures of land, the restriction of the right to travel, the constancy of torture, theft, rape and murder, the constant grinding poverty of wage taxation, the insanity and vile abuses of public education, the tragedy of wasted lives waiting in traffic for a centrally planned road and an arbitrarily placed streetlight, or the censorship of media and speech in general... surely any of these things is more outrageous to you?
What is one more tax to you, when you're chattel. Everything you earn is theirs.
Your argument at the start is correct, I don't know why I really said that. There have been many sectors that needed reforming. I think I simply meant why did the health sector be reformed until recently? America has been practicing a form of communism since progressive presidents starting with Woodrow Wilson came into office. There are the presidents who want to change America and the way it is run, but they need to refrain from communist tactics, due to the failure of the system in the past. They can say it isn't communist, but if it follows its principles, who are they fooling? One more tax just adds to the mess and it gives them the confidence of doing it again. Who passes a bill they don't read? I'm not arguing with you completely, because any of those things are cantankerous to me. Getting off of the gold standard created a way for us to progress by printing more money, but this just decreased the value of our currency. Careless printing has fucked our economy up more than we realize, but we need to take action. Tea party activists are viewed by the media as evil violent people, but they are average Americans standing up for what they think is right. I was referring to a Capitalist republic, by the way.
