Serfdom from Marx to Obama - "The Delusion of Good Government" - video lecture

Hat Tip to Trevor Loudon of New Zeal



Updated: January 16, 2011

The above video was Recorded at the Mises Circle in Colorado Springs, Colorado; 18 September 2010. Sponsored by Pikes Peak Economics Club. [31:32]


Do not pass this video by. At circa 20:24,Yuri N. Maltsev, this former Communist and Soviet Union Gorbachev Administration insider identifies Barack Obama as a Marxist-Leninist. He immediately follows this up by identifying his mentor Frank Marshall Davis as a definitely known US Central Communist Party Committee member, and one person away from Joseph Stalin via Frank's best friend of Paul Robeson, who was on the KGB payroll as a spy in the USA for the Soviet Union, and beloved by Stalin with clearly known face time and joyous presence with Stalin (who in 1937 was known to be murdering his people at the rate of 12,000 per day).

Yuri N. Maltsev’s immediate boss  in the 1980s was chief economic advisor to Gorbachev, but in 1989 Yuri thought he had enough, and defected to the US.

The ff. is my transcription. You may wish to cue the video up to the particular point of interest and follow along if you are pressed for time.

@19:52 – 20:21 Judge Napolitano he told in 2008 called the people “sheeple”, “sheeple”. Yes, we voted what we have right now, ah, ourselves, ourselves. It’s just amazing lack of judgment on behalf of people. Now people are trying to recover from this, I would say, kind of ah, mental, ah, lapse, by TEA Parties and …this at least provides me with some hope.

@ 20:22 – 21:45 But, to elect a Marxist-Leninist …I mean we cannot accuse the President of lying to us, no, he published this book: the dreams of my father. The book, I’ve read it …for the benefit of the Mises Institute, but it was scary, scary. He refers to his mentor, his mentor was in Hawaii …I believe Vietnam, I believe the age was 11 to the age of 17, and his mentor was Frank. He doesn’t tell us what Frank who’s Frank. Frank is African-American; his real name is Frank Marshall Davis. He was a member of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the United States and the best friend of Paul Robeson, maybe you remember Paul Robeson. Paul Robeson was a KGB spy, he was, he was also a singer, but ah he was also on the payroll of the KGB, he was the best buddy of Stalin, of Stalin. And Frank Marshall Davis, he was a poet, and his poems were “ode to the Red Army”, for example, or “praise to Stalin.” And in essence, his poems are how better the life is in the Soviet Union, in the Soviet Union.
