EUROSCLORSIS

Here's a good piece in The American Enterprise on how Europe's socialist dreams contnue to slip into nightmares. When I read something like this, I always think about something my American leftist friends seem to say to me when I talk about socialism. It is the constant refrain from the rank and file of the mainstream American left that a continuing focus on socialism as a real threat is a sign of ideological ossification -- that communism and socialism were permanntly discredited with the fall of the Soviet Union and its empire. But that was just the removal of the worst tumor that Marxism generated in the 20th century. The West still has the cancer of Marxism and it is slowly but surely eating away the vitality of Europe. And Marxism is weakening continental Europe to a dangerous level just as it must face the developing life-or-death cultural challenge from Muslim immigration. Sad, sad, sad...
