Fascist Socialism.
If it were communism the state would provide you with goods, not a salary. And since the democrats envision a single person tyrannical ruler it is not socialism, but fascist socialism.
Contradicting this is contradicting the writings of Benito Mussolini himself.
The Democratic party seeks to put together a coalition that will ensure it of one party rule, much like Maryland, DC, NY, Chicago, San Francisco, et al.
Not one person, one party, in control of the executive, legislative and judicial branches. The difference between a liberal justice and a conservative is liberal justices seek to reinvent the constitution with modern language and adept it to "the time". Where as originalists or conservative tend to focus on the founders's meaning and the intent. Liberals tend to give a broader meaning to certain clauses that conservatives because they feel it over steps the federal governments power to regulate the states (states' rights).
So by controlling both branches of the elected government, they will eventually control the third. They already control the unofficial 4th branch, the press.
If you think I am being overly dramatic, take "hate crime" legislation. Why it's not been challenged, I don't know. But in essence the legislative branch has decided certain circumstances call for an additional crime / penalty. The enforcement of that crime is determined more by the some identity rather than the act. Murder is murder, assault is assault, enforce the those laws, don't tell law enforcement (State's Attorneys) they can add an additional charge based on the race / gender or sexual orientation or identity of the victim.
We already have the 4th estate regulating what can be said because it's seen as "hate speech". Codify it, then the government can get in on the act (for political purposes) and silence critics who they say use hate speech.
