People in countries who have the freedom to control their own lives and property have much higher incomes and standards of living than people who live in socialist countries. Much. Higher. Compared to socialist countries, people in free countries have better healthcare, cleaner environments, and far better economic opportunities.
So, the big question is: Why is liberal Dina Titus pushing so hard to move our Country toward socialism?
Answer: The “Elites” in socialist countries do very well. Look how well Putin, Lee, Maduro, The Castro Brothers, and Xi live. While the people of their country struggle in poverty, they live in luxury. The oligarchs and sycophants who surround these corrupt leaders also live very well. In America, the politicians pushing for socialist policies consider themselves part of the “Elite.” Look at whom they hang out with: Hollywood stars, billionaires, wealthy political activists, and rich CEOs of American corporations. None of these people fear losing their status in a socialist society. They stand to gain even more power and prestige.
My opponent in 2022, Dina Titus, criticized me for helping people build their own personal “wealth and affluence.” At first, I didn’t understand her criticism. To me, accumulating wealth is part of the American dream. Most, if not all, Americans want a better life for themselves and their families. What could be wrong with that?
Then it dawned on me…..
Dina and I hold very different philosophies. Dina believes the government should control most of the wealth in our country, while I believe that people should have maximum freedom to build and control their wealth. It is “government control” versus “people control.” Said another way, it is….
Socialism versus Capitalism
In socialism, the government makes most economic decisions. Bureaucrats decide what products should be made and what wages should be paid. By contrast, in capitalism, the private sector decides what to make, how much to charge, and how people are paid. Capitalism includes strong protections of property rights so that people have incentives to invest their time, talents, and money into the economy. Socialism removes these incentives.
Socialism has failed everywhere it has been tried. Just think of the plight of people who live in Venezuela or North Korea. Even countries with large economies, such as China and Russia, have much lower living standards than the United States and other free nations.
The more economic freedom that people have, the wealthier they become. Just look at the results. The 2022 Index of Economic Freedom ranks 184 Countries on their degree of freedom. They define economic freedom as “the fundamental right of every human to control his or her own labor and property.” Here is a comparison of the average income per person in nine countries. Four of the countries have more economic freedom than the United States and four have less freedom:
Greater freedom leads to greater prosperity. Those pushing big government spending and socialist policies stand to personally gain at the expense of the American people. We must stand up and fight for our freedoms. History and the facts are on our side.
Use your vote to elect me the Republican candidate who can replace career politician Dina Titus who is only acting in her own self-interest. I will represent you!
