Socialists Admit Socialism Fails

J.J. Jackson* | September 18, 2006 

Socialist admits that socialism doesn’t work. Caught on tape the socialist prime minister of Hungary said that everything was made to seem ok only by “tricks” and relying on “divine providence”.

Hungary’s prime minister in trouble over leaked recording

BUDAPEST, Hungary A leaked recording that caught Hungary’s prime minister admitting the government had lied about the economy — keeping it afloat through “divine providence, the abundance of cash in the world economy and hundreds of tricks.” — has prompted protests outside parliament and calls for his resignation.

The tape was made at a closed-door meeting in late May, weeks after Socialist Prime Minister Ferenc Gyurcsany’s government became the first in post-communist Hungary to win re-election.

It seemed to confirm the worst accusations leveled at him by the center-right opposition during the campaign — that Hungary’s state budget was on the verge of collapse and that Gyurcsany and his ministers were concealing the truth in an effort to secure victory. - International Herald Tribune

Also notes the article that

With nationwide municipal elections coming up Oct. 1, significant gains by the center-right opposition could weaken resolve within his party regarding the tax hikes and other austerity measures the government is counting on to balance the bloated budget

What? Tax hikes by socialists to try and keep their fallacies afloat? How unusual! Sounds like certain of their fellow travelers here in the States.

Couple this with the loss of the socialists in Sweden and it looks like parts of Europe are starting to wake up. The question is, have they learned enough from their own mistakes to actually solve the problems? Or will they take a few steps towards correcting the ills that infect them only to slide back into the same old same old in a couple years.
