Next time you hear someone criticizing socialism...

England had charities before the US broke free. After the break the states were responsible for feeding the poor, and we had work farms and charity.
During the Great Depression the states could not handle the mass feeding of the poor and FDR had the national government take over much of the charitable work of the nation. And it is only one reason FDR was elected four times and historians named FDR best president.

Bribing people is a good way to get their vote.

We don't know exactly what is in there

Bonds are in there.

Do you know what a bond is?

Sure do.
A thing used to tie something or to fasten things together.

Or as George Washington said: "Liberality and charity ...ought to govern in all disputes.

Wrong. Voting for theft is what democracy is all about.

That's why we have new laws like Citizen's United so China can donate $100 million to Joe Biden without us knowing and Chris Hayes and Anderson Cooper can convince us that we're really living in a Democracy. ( unless we don't impeach Trump of course).

Cat's got your tongue now or did you just suddenly
remember you weren't talking to a spoiled little
basement-dwelling momma's boy who never had a job like you're
more accustomed to probably ?

Say. Huh ? Say.

What the fuck is your point?

I'm not the one who keeps bumping this old thread for one,
but in this particular case, I'm pointing out that all your fear and whining about socialism
is nothing but misdirected hyperbole.

Socialism sucks. Not hyperbole and perfectly directed.

You are probably referring to industry and business giving money to Republican office holders so they continue to keep business regulations easy and business taxes low.

Big business actually likes regulations, bonehead. They make it harder for newcomers to get a foothold in the market.

What are you complaining about? That's how democracy works.
