“Socialism is the philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy.”
“The American people will never vote for socialism, but under the name of ‘liberalism’ the American people will adopt every fragment of the socialist program.”
“Democracy and socialism have nothing in common but one word, equality. But notice the difference: while democracy seeks equality in liberty, socialism seeks equality in liberty, socialism seeks equality in restraint and servitude.”

“Economic freedom is morally superior to socialism not only because freedom is an intrinsic good, but also because the free market is the most effective means of harmonizing individual self-interest with collective good. A market economy rewards neither self-indulgence nor self-sacrifice but the production of goods and services that other people value.”

Now, the American people, if you put it to them about socialized medicine and gave them a chance to chose, would unhesitatingly vote against it.”
“Your children’s children will live under communism. You Americans are so gullible. No, you [U.S.] won’t accept Communism outright; but we’ll keep feeding you small doses of Socialism until you will finally wake up and find that you already have Communism. We won’t have to fight you; We’ll so weaken your economy, until you fall like overripe fruit into our hands.”
“Now, the American people, if you put it to them about socialised medicine and gave them a chance to chose, would unhesitatingly vote against it.”
“It is part of the Communist doctrine and drillbook, laid down by Lenin himself, that Communists should aid all movements towards the Left and help into office weak Constitutional, Radical, or Socialist Governments. These they should undermine, and from their falling hands snatch absolute power, and found the Marxist State.”
'We are socialists, we are enemies of today's capitalistic economic system for the exploitation of the economically weak.'
