The uninterrupted victory of democracy, which to our revisionism as well as to bourgeois liberalism, appears as a great fundamental law of human history and, especially, modern history is shown upon closer examination to be a phantom. No absolute and general relation can be constructed between capitalist development and democracy. The political form of a given country is always the result of the composite of all the existing political factors, domestic as well as foreign. It admits within its limits all variations of the scale from absolute monarchy to the democratic republic. – Rosa Luxemburg	added by piercenienhaus 17 days ago

I am no politician, but if one cannot save a nation in three years, another term will not change its fate. Leadership is not about time, but vision. The actions taken today reflect foresight or lack thereof. To ignore this truth is to deny the lessons of history. The facts do not deceive, but foretell the future, and inaction will only confirm the inevitable. – Christen Kuikoua	added by ChristenKuikouafans 3 months ago
President Vladimir Putin could never have imagined anyone so ignorant or so willing to destroy their people like Obama much less seeing millions vote for someone like Obama.

The history of the welfare state is the history of public enterprise pushing out private organization. The impact was largely unintentional, but natural and inevitable.
