[healthmyths]

A growing number of really uninformed students are declaring Obama/Ocasio-Cortez/Sanders, et.al. are correct regarding socialism and how we should rob the rich and deliver to the poor.
OK... two examples both of which may be fiction but still present the truth!

The earth's population is 7,000,000,000

Total wealth of the world after deducting all liabilities: $280,000,000,000,000
Richest 1% now owns half the world's wealth

So if progressives/socialists/Democrats had their way, we divide the wealth of the world and each of us would have $36,364... one time right.
They would see that as fair. Right.

But wait...A large proportion of the population in developing countries live on under $1 or $2 per day
Standard of Living in the Developing World | GiveWell
So these people given $36,364 to live on would last...50 years.

Average American spent in 2017 $100 per day in living.
Gallup Daily: U.S. Consumer Spending

$36,364/$100 per day means.. that would last 1 year.

Hmmm... wonder how many of the progressives/socialists/Democrats would be around?

Now this example really strikes home.
And I defy any Obama/Ocasio-Cortez/Sanders, et.al. supporter to prove this is wrong. That if we all decided not to do better than the next person... where would we be?
Oh and remember there is only one leader in the below. Right?

[healthmyths]

Newsflash...when you post something that "may be made up" it is by definition...NOT valid

That makes no sense.
The facts are that if you divided all the wealth by all the people... different places would spend at different rates but some would still be less than what they are use too.
That is a fact.
It is also fact if you gave every one the same grade then no one would be interested in learning more than others.

That is a fact.

I think you are confusing two things. 100% socialist and different forms of the system we have now. We may have a 79% capitalist system and these guys want some form of 72, 77, 70% and Trump 85% to over simplify.

You just gave another strawman. I never claimed there were 46 million uninsured Americans. In fact I didn't mention medicare at all in this post. So you get called out for providing a post based on a strawman and you deflect by using another one? Allow me to say that is pretty funny.

 

[rightwinger]

Why do Conservatives only look at the extremes ?
Nobody is demanding that the wealthy give up al their money and give it to the poor
Today's socialists are not looking for government control of the economy or abolition of wealth

The socialists named want to do more for those who are struggling. In recent years,we have asked our wealthy to contribute less and the poor and working class have paid a price.

Time to return to earlier tax rates and use the additional revenue to help society as a whole

Is is the "socialism" of Obama/Ocasio-Cortez/Sanders, et.al. supporter, or is the whole thing my two examples?

-Yours is. Find me one time..... one single time that Obama/Ocasio-Cortez/Sanders suggested that ALL people should get an equal wage? The proposition the two latter give is that the rich pay a proportional higher amount in taxes to make SOME basic services available to all Americans. Obama does the same in a lesser amount. This is NOT the same as suggesting that everybody gets the same amount of money. So a strawman.
- Not for nothing nearly all countries in the world have a system were part of the money people make is taken by the government to be redistributed to the population to provide services in one way or another. The basic disagreement is what for,where, and how much money the government takes. You made it about something else altogether.

And their "one" basic service is "Medicare for all"
How many times do I have to point out to idiots like you and them THERE NEVER were 46 million uninsured Americans as Obama stated and idiots like you believe!
YET we hear/read this screaming for "Medicare for All"! We are talking about less than 5 million people that WANT and need health insurance! NOT 46 million!

Now they don't think they'll get their tax returns charged we've gone from 4 to 6 potential freeloaders at my work.

A growing number of really uninformed students are declaring Obama/Ocasio-Cortez/Sanders, et.al. are correct regarding socialism and how we should rob the rich and deliver to the poor.
OK... two examples both of which may be fiction but still present the truth!

The earth's population is 7,000,000,000

Total wealth of the world after deducting all liabilities: $280,000,000,000,000
Richest 1% now owns half the world's wealth

So if progressives/socialists/Democrats had their way, we divide the wealth of the world and each of us would have $36,364... one time right.
They would see that as fair. Right.

But wait...A large proportion of the population in developing countries live on under $1 or $2 per day
Standard of Living in the Developing World | GiveWell
So these people given $36,364 to live on would last...50 years.

Average American spent in 2017 $100 per day in living.
Gallup Daily: U.S. Consumer Spending

$36,364/$100 per day means.. that would last 1 year.

Hmmm... wonder how many of the progressives/socialists/Democrats would be around?

Now this example really strikes home.
And I defy any Obama/Ocasio-Cortez/Sanders, et.al. supporter to prove this is wrong. That if we all decided not to do better than the next person... where would we be?
Oh and remember there is only one leader in the below. Right?

The whole thing is based on a straw man.

What "whole thing" is based on a "an intentionally misrepresented proposition that is set up because it is easier to defeat than an opponent's real argument." i.e. "straw man"?

Oh and btw.46 Million Uninsured: A Look Behind The Number
https://www.census.gov/prod/2008pubs/p60-235.pdf
The fact that some people in the US, the richest country in the world does NOT balk at having citizens incapable of having access to high quality healthcare is something that to me is baffling.
