Reflections From a Murky Pond

It’s so very ironic that Democrats call us Americans Nazis when they, themselves, follow the Nazi playbook so often and so well. The current example is Elizabeth Warren’s recurring attempt at the Ultra-Millionaire Tax Act, which includes an 40% “exit tax” on the net worth above $50 million for any U.S. citizen or long-term resident who renounces their citizenship and flees our country. That is quite literally straight out of the 1930s Nazi playbook. It’s a new iteration of their Reichsfluchtsteuer (Reich Flight Tax).

It’s the same law, just rebranded to fit the Democrats’ narrative. It’s even based upon exactly the same original premise – to stop people from fleeing extreme taxation. But somehow, some way, we’re the Nazis?

Then, that projective accusation is part of the Nazi playbook as well.

Accuse the other side of that which you are guilty

Cambridge, MA, isn’t near or much like Berchtesgaden, and her home isn’t much like the Berghof, but neither is a particularly good reason to summarily dismiss giving Operation Foxley another try. 😉

Senators Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and Bob Casey (D-PA) don’t like when the wealthy flee the United States in order to shield their wealth from government confiscation. So they’re planning on introducing their “quaintly” named Ex-PATRIOT Act to ensure that such individuals must leave a large portion of their wealth behind when they flee.

I guess that, in the minds of the Democrats, the wealthy are the new Jews. They must be because Mankind has seen this before. It was the Reichsfluchtsteuer, the Reich flight tax, that the Nazis imposed on Jews trying to flee Germany in the 1930s. It was set at 25% of assets but, not to be outdone, Schumer and Casey set Reichsfluchtsteuer 2.0 at 30%.

Social Democrat, National Socialist, or Democratic Socialist, it’s all the same. All movements and parties of this sort need scapegoats and take the same actions against them.

Funny, I thought that when Fascism came to America it was supposed to do so wrapped in the American flag and carrying a Cross and/or, possibly whistling the “Star Spangled Banner.” I guess I, and a number of others, were wrong. Fascism is going to come to America exactly as it did to Weimar Germany in the 1930s.
