A dark plan to turn the United States into a socialist republic

Let's go through the checklist:

1. Start seizing the means of production. Check.
2. Start seizing the mechanisms of finance. Check
3. Begin instilling fear in the populace. Check.
4. Seize personal control over the White House Military Office which governs Air Force One and all of the President's personal transportation. Remains to be seen. (Caldera has to be nervous though.)
5. Seize control of the press. In the works.
6. Demonize and eliminate your opposition. Check.
7. Begin steps to seize firearms from the citizenry. Check
8. Sieze effective control of the Legislature.

All and all not a bad 100 days if you're into relying on the government to take care of every little thing for you. However, if you're interested in self-determination, liberty, and the freedom to chart your own course for your life you're probably shaking in your boots.
