What do you think is the strongest draw toward Socialism in our country lately?

Oh look another thread where a bunch of people who wear a name tag to work will discuss a term that they don't understand.

Oh look another post by a socialist beggar claiming the definition of socialism is complicated.

It's funny, BL, to my father, being called a socialist was tantamount to being named a traitor. That could get you blackballed, your ass handed to you or worse. When I was a kid, being called a socialist was a dirty word that got you scorned, feared and shamed.

But then they got smart, renamed themselves "progressives" and using our free society laws, worked their way into positions that determined public policy and now today, they flout Socialism as if it were just another choice to a Representative Republic like either whole milk or skim.

So did you father not understand the definition of socialist or is that ignorance unique to you?

Definition of socialism


1: any of various economic and political theories advocating collective or governmental ownership and administration of the means of production and distribution of goods
2a: a system of society or group living in which there is no private property
b: a system or condition of society in which the means of production are owned and controlled by the state
3: a stage of society in Marxist theory transitional between capitalism and communism and distinguished by unequal distribution of goods and pay according to work done

Wow, good start. Let's see which of those are happening here or are even being proposed here.

1: any of various economic and political theories advocating collective or governmental ownership and administration of the means of production and distribution of goods - NOPE
2a: a system of society or group living in which there is no private property - NOPE
b: a system or condition of society in which the means of production are owned and controlled by the state - NOPE
3: a stage of society in Marxist theory transitional between capitalism and communism and distinguished by unequal distribution of goods and pay according to work - We are absolutely unequal in this country with the rich getting richer every single day.

It’s not about what we have now...it’s what you begging weirdos want it to become.

You're right. It's fucking WEIRD to want people to be healthy without going bankrupt and to be educated.

BIZARRE!

Today we are among a different group, a group inspired by thirdworlders, a group that takes great pride in begging and in being someone else’s responsibility. They brag about being pet humans.

And yet others brag that they are Broke Losers. Crazy world we live in!

The main reason for the shrinking middle class is people are out of the middle class upward not downward. $94,000US puts you in the top 10% of the wealthy in the world. $4200US put you in the top 50% of the wealthy in the world but you libtards don't want to hear that.

We used to not call things like tariffs, bail outs, etc capitalism either.

The "middle class" is doing good as compared to Uganda. That's going to be your argument?

By far the strongest draw towards socialism in our country today is the GOP, which took Reagan's "government is the problem" speech line and turned into gospel.

Trumpsters should be receiving Thank You cards from the socialists for all the help they're providing, with their shallow, simplistic, binary thinking regarding socioeconomics.

You believe Reagan was advocating FOR Socialism in his speech AGAINST government intervention into socialized medicine? That doesn't make sense unless you are deliberately pulling his "government is the problem" statement out of context and misrepresenting what he was saying.

Um, no, he was advocating for the opposite, essentially a libertarian approach to government.

How you got what you got from that is a mystery.
.

Um no, Reagan's argument for government not intervening into healthcare is one and the same with the Libertarian fundamental principle of limited government. I don't think "Trumpsters" will be getting any thank you cards from socialists anytime soon.

Reagan voted for FDR four times and when he became president Reagan's appointees were charged with some 225 scandals including Iran-Contra.

Oh look. Another Tard whose every post begins and ends with ad hominem attacks because its the easy thing to do.

No comments about the electric companies? ... must be too hot an issue, God forbid we piss off ConEdison ...

I'm fully aware that UHC would cost me money. Everything is not about me.

We are on the hook for $125,000 that Trump gave to our billionaire governor. Now that I am not wanting to pay for. (not that anyone is paying for it)

APNewsBreak: Billionaire governor's family farms get subsidy

Helping the poor and middle class afford health care is bad but giving money away to corrupt (he is corrupt, look it up) billionaires is good?

Yeah ... old people is why Social Security is broke ... the bastards ... they should just hurry up and die ... they're taking 15% of YOUR money just to slip lemonade and play scrabble ... another thing ... old people are sick sick sick ... sucking up all that insurance premium money YOU pay ... then they move to Florida specifically so their homes get ruined in hurricanes, just to punish YOU ...

It sucks to be Middle Class ...

“What do you think is the strongest draw toward Socialism in our country lately?”

Great question. I believe there are several answers.
IGNORANCE, IGNORANCE, and IGNORANCE!

You have a generation raised on getting trophies for getting out of bed and showing up. The age of self responsibility keeps getting pushed back and they think they deserve the best of everything with no effort. Prime socialist voting base right there.

Now you add in climate hysteria, sexual confusion, an inability to deal with feelings and an anti capitalist education and they’re signing up immediately.

Who raised that generation of participation trophy kids? Who skyrocketed divorce rates and let themselves be cowed into submission by accusations of racism while everything their parents stood for was dismantled?

We get participation trophies here on USMB ... wow, impuretrash ... you have 290 trophy points, I'm impressed ... that's some quality getting out of bed that's for sure ...
