Bernie’s Economic Bill Of Rights Taken Nearly Verbatim From Stalin’s 1936 Soviet Constitution

[Ambivalent1]

It's a lot like Roosevelt's economic bill of rights that was proposed near the end of his presidency but that would not be as scary to you dumb-dumbs.

So you welcome Communism, got it.

 

[bripat9643]

The Bill of Rights that establishes once and for all that every American, regardless of his or her income in entitled to:

• The right to a decent job that pays a living wage
• The right to quality health care
• The right to a complete education
• The right to affordable housing
• The right to a clean environment
• The right to a secure retirement

OMG!

I can see why conservatives would be outraged

None of those things are rights, and most of them require enslaving the people who have to provide them. They mean universal slavery.

Never saw that coming, did you?

ARTICLE 120. Citizens of the U.S.S.R. have the right to maintenance in old age and also in case of sickness or loss of capacity to work.

Hardly "verbatim".

And which of these do you think is particularly communist?

Everyone of them is communist except the one about a clean environment

It's always the same old promise, that always get broken.

Cite which of these was not also guaranteed to Venezuelans (under Chavez "Democratic Socialism")

Funny how government forced / controlled things often don't turn out as promised.

You Socialist are so quick to pretend to be a defender of "Rights", and the first to snatch them away.
