The government now has majority ownership of some private corporations, they have interest in private banking due to bailouts, and now they want control of private health care.  If we do not control our very health choices, what freedom do we really have?  Our religious freedoms are slowly being chipped away by the ACLU as they push for freedom from religion not freedom of religion.  Success is being demonized and the successful are being taxed into settling for mediocracy.  Jobs are slipping away because businesses must choose between paying taxes or hiring employees.  Deficits are rising so government spends more and when that doesn't work we spend some more because we didn't spend enough the first time.  This week our president and congress passed a bill that will increase our national debt ceiling by $1.9 trillion, bringing our national debt to $14.3 trillion.  To put that in perspective you would have to spend $19,491,583 per day for 2010 years to pay off the debt.  It also represents over $40,000 per man, woman, and child in the United States of America.

Think of $1.9 Trillion in this way...
The Washington Monument stands about 555 feet tall. Stacked end to end, it would take more than 2.4 billion monuments to reach 1.35 trillion feet. That's well more than double the distance from the Earth to the sun.  I've provided you basic definitions and constitutional references that I think everyone should  commit to memory so they are prepared to intelligently discuss the freedoms of capitalism vs. the slavery of other tyranical ideologies.  I hope this is helpful.

Merriam-Webster Dictionary

Marxism

is a particular political philosophy, economic and sociological worldview based upon a materialist interpretation of history, a Marxist analysis of capitalism, a theory of social change, and an atheist view of human liberation derived from the work of Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. The three primary aspects of Marxism are:

1.       The dialectical and materialist concept of history — Humankind's history is fundamentally that of the struggle between social classes. The productive capacity of society is the foundation of society, and as this capacity increases over time the social relations of production, class relations, evolve through this struggle of the classes and pass through definite stages (primitive communism, slavery, feudalism, capitalism). The legal, political, ideological and other aspects (ex. art) of society are derived from these production relations as is the consciousness of the individuals of which the society is composed.

2.       The critique of capitalism — In capitalist society, an economic minority (the bourgeoisie) dominate and exploit the working class (proletariat) majority. Marx uncovered the interworkings of capitalist exploitation, the specific way in which unpaid labor (surplus value) is extracted from the working class (the labor theory of value), extending and critiquing the work of earlier political economists on value. Although the production process is socialized, ownership remains in the hand of the bourgeoisie. This forms the fundamental contradiction of capitalist society. Without the elimination of the fetter of the private ownership of the means of production, human society is unable to achieve further development.

3.       Advocacy of proletarian revolution — In order to overcome the fetters of private property the working class must seize political power internationally through a social revolution and expropriate the capitalist classes around the world and place the productive capacities of society into collective ownership. Upon this, material foundation classes would be abolished and the material basis for all forms of inequality between humankind would dissolve

Marxism is the system of socialism of which the dominant feature is public ownership of the means of production, distribution, and exchange.

"Government “help” to business is just as disastrous as government persecution… the only way a government can be of service to national prosperity is by keeping its hands off." -Ayn Rand

The Fifth Amendment further protects property, by stating:

"No person shall be ... deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation."
