Referring to what you said, the idea you stated seems more of an Orwellian society.

"The Board of Supervisors this week agreed to lift an all-out ban on playing with footballs, other *bleep* and Frisbees on the beach, according to a media statement released by the L.A. County Department of Beaches and Harbors.
 
The update means that beach-goers may toss *bleep* and Frisbees with Lifeguards’ permission on beaches in Los Angeles County between Memorial Day and Labor Day."
One can lead a horse to water however, if one holds the horse's head under, that horse will drown.

More socialist and apathetic and divisive, I would say.  Most people seem weak and helpless to me these days and they lack personal responsibility and simple pride.  Such traits make them very vulnerable to politicians promising gifts and policies that they know those they are targeting desire.  I personally don't need a damn thing from anyone (doesn't mean I am honery enough to refuse gifts though) and I value my own sensibilities much more than I do any polished politician.
There are only 10 types of people in the world:  those who understand binary, and those who don't.

 :'( :'( Sadly, since Obama was elected to the highest office in the land, we have headed in a straight fast paced direction toward socialism. Unless we silent majority get off our back sides, Obama will be dictator for life and we will live a miserable life without freedoms of any kind. God help America.

 I feel that if Obama is reelected by the time he gets finished, this country will definitely be socalistic. Maybe not communistic, but definitly socalistic.

No, there are too many of us true Americans to prevent that! 
Have a wonderful day!

It's pretty much just like that now. Many beaches in California, (and elsewhere), post signs prohibiting swimmers in "surfing sections" too.  I've often wondered how the surfers are supposed to get out to the waves without violating that prohibition since paddling falls under the general idea of swimming too.

Not even close. I've been to a communist country: China. In many ways they have more freedom then we do. They drive like mad men but there is no road rage and barely any accidents. They honk a lot at each other but it's like the driver is saying 'I'm here'. If there is an accidents both parties are blamed. China's crime rate is very, very low. Their children are very respectul. I was asked by 16 year old how I should be address because calling me by my first name is rude. They take very  good care of their elderly. My mom's 74 and very independant and self reliant. They always offered her a chair, an arm to walk on, a seat on the bus. When they asked her how old she was they cheered her! They have signs everywhere about being kind to the weak, elderly, disabled, etc. Out in public I would consider them rude. They cut in line, interrupt each other, shove past you but no one does anything. It's like that's just the way it is and they except that. I didn't see any fights or arguements break out.
I don't agree with communision but it seems to work for them. In the US we have some of the most outrages laws. Childern can be as disrespectful as they want. All they have to do is yell: abuse. You cut someone off or shove past them you'll either get told off or threaten. I had a friend who was jumped and beaten up for asking some men to leave his sister alone. People are sue happy. And most will win when it should of been thrown out of court. Illegal aliens are getting more rights and special treatment then us citzen's who need it.  I don't know what I would call the US but I feel our freedom isn't free at all.

I was in China last year and they have more economic freedom than we could ever dream of here.  So sad.

I don't think a communist country would have 1% of it's people with 90% of the wealth. So, no.

China occupies much of the middle third of the global wealth distribution. The share of the top 10% ranges from around 40% in China to 70% in the United States.

That may be true if you do research. I simply watch Michael Moore movies. Therefore, 1% owns 90%.
