Socialism: The Economic Theory of Losers

[Penelope]

"...us...."????

You have a tapeworm????

Waiting Alice. No one has a good answer. Tell us why its ok for the wealthy and farmers to get socialized money that we taxpayers pay. Also those who like to build Hud housing, I read Hannity got some bucks from HUD.

The song says "Go ask Alice...………….when she's 10' tall".

Wrong good answers have been given to you.

It is NOT ok for them to get socialized money.

Two wrongs do not make a right and socialism is an endless perpetual failure to be avoided.

Tax abatements and Farm Subsidies.

Mo is the poorest state in the union and last I knew they were strong GOP states. Look at the poor states and low health care and you are looking at GOP states.

Which is irrelevant crap as socialism is not some sort of democrat vs republican subject.

True, the GOP socialize the wealthy and the Democrats socialize the poor.

"...the Democratic Party has been split because of the ascension of the Democratic Socialists.

Their ideation has significantly influenced the direction of the party as a whole, moving it further left than ever before. ... the Democratic Socialists do not like Obamacare any more than those on the right because it is standing in the way of one of their central issues- the creation of a single payer system.

... this radical idea is taking hold as part of the Democratic platform and is generating popular support as Obamacare fails..."

Bernie Sanders' Medicare-for-All Plan Will Cost $32 Trillion Over 10 Years

"Let me thank the Koch brothers, of all people, for sponsoring a study that shows that Medicare for All would save the American people $2 trillion over a 10-year period," Sanders said.

In the study, Blohous predicts Sanders' universal, single-payer healthcare plan would raise federal healthcare spending by about $32.6 trillion between 2022 and 2031. Other economists noted in the same study, however, that federal healthcare spending would drop overall by just more than $2 trillion.

In the video, Sanders thanked the Koch brothers for proving his plan would cut healthcare costs.

Sanders's healthcare plan, which he popularized as a talking point during his 2016 presidential campaign, would cover all U.S. citizens without copays or deductibles.

That study going around on Bernie Sanders' Medicare for All plan comes with a big catch — the US would actually be saving money overall on healthcare

Even Libertarians Admit Medicare for All Would Save Trillions

 

[PoliticalChic]

"...Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and congressional candidate Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., are thought leaders for their parties.

Take Sanders. He has been promoting his "Medicare for All" slogan for years. The left loves it. Among the top Democrats who have embraced this slogan are Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., and Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore. Most of those senators want to run for president. So they understand that Sanders' bumper sticker policy is popular on its face.

There's only one problem: Nobody asked that first question. This week, Charles Blahous of the Mercatus Center at George Mason University released a study taking a look at the cost of Sanders' preferred program. The total: $32.6 trillion over 10 years. Over that same period, our total federal spending is projected at $56 trillion -- and we're already racking up debt like there's no tomorrow on that budget. That means that we could double our taxes at every level and still not come close to covering Sanders' program."
Being a Socialist Means Never Having to Say You're Sorry

 

[PoliticalChic]

"The Urban Institute, a left-leaning outlet, estimated the cost at $32 trillion. So this isn't a right-left problem. It's a basic math problem. Sanders doesn't understand basic math.

When asked about how she would pay for her program of free Medicare for All, college tuition and housing, she explained that we could just raise the corporate tax rate to 28 percent and close some loopholes, and "that's $2 trillion right there." Which would pay for ... approximately seven months of Medicare for All. Then, Ocasio-Cortez explained that she'd find money by cutting the defense budget ($700 billion per year), which would still not cover Medicare for All. And she'd create a carbon tax, which could crush industry, leading to lesser tax revenue.

But Democrats aren't interested in who pays for things, because their ultimate solution is that nobody pays for things. "

1. If you're a loser, can't make the simple lifestyle decisions that would keep you out of poverty, well.....latch on to the promises that you can simply take other people's stuff: socialism.


" The Brookings Institution has spent a great deal of effort studying this issue.
And presidential candidate Rick Santorum has been quoting their findings on the campaign trail.
Brookings whittled down a lot of analysis into three simple rules. You can avoid poverty by:

1. Graduating from high school.

2. Waiting to get married until after 21 and do not have children till after being married.

3. Having a full-time job.


If you do all those three things, your chance of falling into poverty is just 2 percent .Meanwhile, you’ll have a 74 percent chance of being in the middle class.

Applies to everyone
These rules apply to all races and ethnic groups. Breaking these rules is becoming more commonplace, unfortunately, for all racial groups."
Three rules for staying out of poverty



2. "Marxism rested on the assumption that the condition of the working classes would grow ever worse under capitalism, that there would be but two classes: one small and rich, the other vast and increasingly impoverished, and revolution would be the anodyne that would result in the “common good.” But by the early 20th century, it was clear that this assumption was completely wrong! Under capitalism, the standard of living of all was improving: prices falling, incomes rising, health and sanitation improving, lengthening of life spans, diets becoming more varied, the new jobs created in industry paid more than most could make in agriculture, housing improved, and middle class industrialists and business owners displaced nobility and gentry as heroes."

A.) Full time jobs? You are aware that a lot of companies have been increasingly cutting those out because companies don't want to give anyone benefits.

B.) Actually, if 100% of the population had doctorate degrees from college, the poverty rates wouldn't change much, if at all in the current society.
Because the job market still demands low tier jobs like Walmart greeters, toilet scrubbers, lawn-mowers, burger flippers, etc. which pay out poverty wages, and still you don't need 100's of millions of doctorates floating around, guess what people still would be doing scab wage jobs in poverty.

This just proves the stupid bastard Republicans don't even understand the Capitalist system they tout of, they are hopelessly retarded.

If you want to discuss socialism tell us why corps get tax abatements, and farmers get subsidies like forever.
That is socialism for the wealthy.

"...us...."????

You have a tapeworm????

Waiting Alice. No one has a good answer. Tell us why its ok for the wealthy and farmers to get socialized money that we taxpayers pay. Also those who like to build Hud housing, I read Hannity got some bucks from HUD.

The song says "Go ask Alice...………….when she's 10' tall".

Wrong good answers have been given to you.

It is NOT ok for them to get socialized money.

Two wrongs do not make a right and socialism is an endless perpetual failure to be avoided.

A.) Illinois is Socialist?
In that they have high taxes?

That's not Socialism.

Another Thread About Socialism, But Better

Socialism is to command over the Capitalist free-market.

Actually that's exactly what people with Socially Conservative values should be doing, why do they insist it's a Capitalist freedom to have Porn Industry, Rap Music Industry, Liberal Hollywood, tons of Liberal Media, the Abortion Hospitals, not to mention a ton of illegal immigrants hired by businesses all over the place.


B.) If by low taxes you mean non-Socialism?

Actually, by that standard Mexico, and a lot of other Third-World countries are substantially cheaper than the 1st World economies when it comes to "'Taxes"

High Taxes create slums? Tell that to Mexico.
