the rotting of socialism

The rotting of a socialist I knew of a young man, a rebel who wanted his country to adopt the Scandinavian model of socialism. He was elected to great acclaim by the people, he wanted taxes to rise, especially among the wealthy and upper middle classes, they rebelled by slurring him in the newspapers, lurid tales about sex orgies and a luxury living, people turned against him not re-elected After some years’ people found he was not a bad egg and he was elected as president again. Now he was a changed man, didn`t care less about the Left or the right, he just wanted to be president in his self-belief gave tax relief to the rich, prices went up, and people protested they wanted him to go. He refuses to do so many people are killed he doesn`t care turned from a good man into a bloody dictator who will keep his power at whatever cost and has to be removed by whatever means. Viva Nicaragua.
