Old Socialists Like Pavlov's Dog

Vincent J. Curtis

22 Apr 20

Desperate for editorial variety in the midst of a government imposed shutdown, the Hamilton Peoples’ Daily turned to a retirement home evacuee for a diatribe.  The old geezer wheezed and sputtered about the wickedness of capitalism, as he has with reliable tediousness for the last fifty-five years.

Senility hasn’t improved the product.  The implication of anti-capitalism is the new and improved version of scientific socialism, such as that practiced in Communist China, North Korea, or Venezuela.  The Wuhan virus pandemic (as it is called in the People’s Republic, except in Mandarin), however, has made aware even the dullest among us of the true nature of socialist paradises, which has to make you wonder where on the evolutionary scale today’s fan-boys of socialism really are.

An allowance needs to be made for the innocence of childhood – even if it is a second childhood we’re speaking of.  We were assured that Canada had the gratitude of China, but on April 20, China sent home empty two cargo aircraft that had been dispatched from Canada to pick up needed medical supplies.  Young Justin excused the incident as a logistical mishap, but these kinds of mistakes don’t happen by accident in communist countries.

It will be a stick in the eye to the socialist geezers when Trumpian capitalist America finds the cure and the vaccine for the disease released from a communist Chinese bio-lab, just as America is conjuring a tidal wave of medical supplies seemingly out of nowhere.
