At what point does a failed vision become a delusion, a hallucination, or a nightmare?

Reselling the same failed erroneous beliefs to warped imaginations continue. It started with NEW Harmony under atheistic Robert Owen (1825). To NEW Freedom under Woodrow Wilson (1913). NEW Deal under Roosevelt (1933). NEW Frontier under John F. Kennedy (1961). GREAT Society under Lyndon B. Johnson (1963). Now, NEW Hope under Obama (2008).   At least LBJ did show some creative imagination in word selection.

Liberals advance the nice, and bury the bad and the ugly in a deep hole, edited out from all of history. In America the failed socialist ideology goes back to 1825, before Marxism.   Anti private property, anti marriage, and anti religion in America goes back to 1825, or before. The 160 year old 6^th hand socialist idea just gets recycled under new packages, with the label emphasizing NEW contents! 

In America, when did the pompous wish to convert the civilized world start? Robert Owen (1771-1858), a Welsh social reformer was a founder of socialism and the communalism movement in America. Owen's philosophy, which Karl Marx later named utopian socialism, was derived from three fundamental pillars. First, Owen believed that no one was "responsible for his will and his own actions" because "his whole character is formed independently of himself." Owen firmly believed that people were the product of their environment.   Owen's second pillar was his opposition to religion. Owen felt that all religions were "based on the same absurd imagination" which he said made mankind "a weak, imbecile animal; a furious bigot and fanatic; or a miserable hypocrite." His third pillar said that he disliked the factory system (capitalism), and supported the cottage system (farmers & labor)..

In 1825, Owen took his NEW APPARITION of society to experiment in NEW Harmony, Indiana, U.S.A. After a trial of about two years it failed. All his communities in England failed. Today New Harmony (population 880) has homes and incomes that are 65% of the rest of Indiana. Owen’s “NEW” vision has always failed, in Russia, in China, in Cuba, wherever. The socialistic vision to convert (or revert) the civilized world has never materialized anywhere. Mortal’s behaving as God fail in life, always.
