Is it a wonderful "utopia" or a totalitarian nightmare? Will everything be free or will deep-state bureaucrats decide who gets what? Did Plato, Thomas More, & Francis Bacon propose social ownership of property, Is there a difference between socialism and communism? Did Pilgrims attempt "a communistic plan of life"? What happened? How did Pilgrims' covenant under God become Age of Enlightenment's social contract with a distant God, become French Revolution's social contract with no god, become Marxism's "the state is god?" "If the state gives rights, it can, and inevitably will, take away those rights."-Eisenhower, Was France's Reign of Terror a model for future violent socialist revolutions? The Bible talks about private property yet Marx wrote: "The theory of the communists may be summed up in the single sentence: Abolition of private property."
