What is maximum possible share of the Government in GDP after which Commuinst rule becomes inevitable?

My estimate is 50%. Once 50% of voters fully depend on the government for their welfare, there will be only one direction to go, barring civil wars and revolutions.


We are not even close to a communist state.

We are closer to a corporate oligarchy with a few large corporate boards setting our policy.

they already get over 50% of your income.

I think you missed it. Communism as a viable form of government collapsed when the wall came down in 1989. North Korea and Cuba are in shambles. China is ruled by dynastic capitalists. You know a new dynasty called Red China, but like the old China dynastic. Communism died in 1989.

Communism is a old theory is now extinct... it was a political rpopaganda in the cold war. We have today a new nazi and fascist policies from the Bush Administration. The Hitler Bush had killed 1,000,000 iraqis and 4,000 USA soldiers in Iraq and, the crazy Maca Cain wants to invade Iran and Venezuela.

Well if it is 50% we are decades away from becoming a communist state. CBO numbers give government about an 18% share of GDP which has remained fairly consistent since the end of WW2.

I already think it is, compare America now to what we were fighting during the cold war. Vote Ron Paul, he is one of the few real Conservative left

So be it---I rather have my heater working every time it gets cold than have a democratic system that doesn't care about its people....

Stop worrying about welfare. We reformed it 14 years ago.

What about Corporate Welfare? Ar what point does that become Fascism?

"Another word for Fascism is Corporatism".-- Mussolini
