The Business of Government is to Promote Happiness or Business?

[EdwardBaiamonte]

WHERE DO YOU SEE THAT BEING PUSHED, OR USED IN WESTERN EUROPE TODAY? HOW ABOUT THE US? lol

dear, modern liberals are smart enough to know they are far too incompetant to run or own companies so the modern lib commie socialist just taxes them to death to acheive the same socialist goal of community ownership. Guess which country has the highest corporate rates in the world?

 

[Dad2three]

And again, I've never promoted Socialism,

dear, you are 100% socialist and stupid. You want a bigger and bigger govt controlling more and more. Obama does not call himself a socialist either despite having had 3 communist parents and voting to left of Bernie Sanders, an open socialist. THe folks who spied for Stalin were code named "liberals" by the KGB.



Norman Thomas quotes:

The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of 'liberalism' they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.

No. And see, this is where you goddamned idiots try to pass through your bullshit as if you have some kind of entitlement to have people swallow whatever you want to feed them. You're sitting here babbling bullshit that doesn't make any sense whatsoever. You're completely incapable of a logically valid argument, or even understanding the fundamental concepts that you're trying to invoke.

Infrastructure is an ideal of socialism?!?! Yet equally sharing wealth has nothing to do with socialism!?!?!

There is nothing to refute, because what you are saying is nothing. It is less than nothing. It is jibberish.

Your inability of understanding complex questions is very telling.

Socialist ideals pay for infrastructure. Putting money in a pot to pay for tax based services for all to use.

Sometimes, for the sake of the country, I say a little prayer that a more intelligent, thoughtful Republican will magically appear on this message board.

After three years, I have decided that is like waiting for the return of Christ. Ain't happening anytime soon. If ever.

There are NO intelligent middle class Republicans.

He's been proven wrong many times but it doesn't even slow him down. Just like with you. The guy is still fixated on Bush and no economist is blaming Bush at this point so why don't you two get a room and knock yourselves out? After you get back from your burger flipper job, I mean.

This is, of course, nonsense – and the American people know it. As I documented in a previous post, even today 43 percent of them hold George W. Bush responsible for the current budget deficit versus only 14 percent who blame Mr. Obama.

The only reason that you would 'filter' opposing views is that YOUR views are so wrong.

That doesn't even make sense. Poser.

Bush still getting blame for economic woes

More than five years after leaving office, former President George W. Bush is still getting blame for the country’s economic problems, a new poll has found. But the percentage of Americans who blame the former president and Republicans for the current state of the economy has fallen below 50% for the first time since Bush left office, according to a CNN/ORC poll released Thursday.

The poll (PDF) found that 34% Americans say “Barack Obama and the Democrats” are primarily responsible for the nation’s current economic problems, while 44% say “George W. Bush and the Republicans” are to blame. The percentage blaming Bush and the GOP has dropped in the last year and a half, while those putting the onus on Obama has remained largely unchanged.

In the fall of 2012, 57% blamed Bush and 35% blamed Obama.

I lived there for 6 years, numskull. Venezuela should be wealthy. Why isn't it?

Venezuela is a third world country. You have rich, and poor. Just like Republicans are trying to do in the United States.

The reason it's a third world country is the fact that it adopted socialism as an economic system.
