Marxism On The March

Whether you call it communism, socialism, or Marxism, there is no denying that a growing movement in America favors expanding government control over the economy, education, health care, housing, and other aspects of everyday life.

History teaches that when too much power is concentrated in the state, individual liberty, religious freedom, private property, and free expression are often diminished.

America was founded on the opposite principle—that our rights come from God, not government, and that government’s role is to protect those rights, not replace them.

Recent political rhetoric has drawn renewed attention to revolutionary socialist ideas. Senator Bernie Sanders has long identified as a democratic socialist, while critics argue that some of the proposals and rhetoric of figures such as Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani echo themes and language found in the writings of Karl Marx, particularly regarding class struggle, public ownership, and the redistribution of wealth. Supporters, however, contend these proposals are democratic socialist reforms rather than Marxism.

Whatever label one uses, history reminds us that ideas have consequences. Every generation must decide whether it will preserve liberty or gradually surrender it. Freedom rarely disappears overnight; more often, it fades one compromise at a time.
