37. Threaten most vulnerable of our population in order to keep pushing debt crisis resulting from unsustainable overspending

38. Debauch the currency by forcing The Fed to monetize gross overspending, leading to high and rapid inflation

These are some of the less disputable things that have already happened. There are other things a socialist could do if he could get an infiltrator into the White House and attempted to fundamentally transform the United States.

The key to understanding the international socialist agenda is that it is incremental, systematic, and intentional.
