what so bad about socialism

[EdwardBaiamonte]

To be honest, bad management and greed IS a problem with Socialism

got one right!! Yes, liberal socialism, monarchy, and dictatorship have killed in the 10's of millions throughout human history because all power is concentrated, so bad or deadly decisions effect the entire country.

Do you have the IQ to understand??

 

[EdwardBaiamonte]

....Who would really serve you and the country better, Sanders or any one of the Republican candidates?

Republicans obviously, socialism slowly starved 120 million to death. Is that "serving" to a total idiot liberal???

We're talking about THIS country in 2015! Can you make an intelligent comment on what Sanders is saying about THIS COUNTRY in relation to the Republican policies , proposals, and actions? Perhaps you can relate the brand of Socialism that allegedly killed 120 M to what Sanders is saying.

a typical and total idiot liberal wants the poor not to starve by getting steak and lobster with food stamps and has no concern about moral hazard.

The more that you call people idiots to deflect attention away from the fact that you don't know what the fuck your talking about.....the more YOU look like a fucking idiot.

You seem to believe that there are only two types of economic systems-socialism and capitalism and that everything and anything associated with the former is evil. Do you have the IQ to understand that is not the case?

You seem to believe that there is no difference in the various manifestations of socialism as they exist within the context of various political systems and ideologies …..Do you have the IQ to understand how ridiculous that is?


You seem to believe that socialism in America is a recent phenomenon that reared it’s ugly head only since Obama came on the scene. Do you have the IQ to understand anything about history?



The roots of Socialism in America can be traced to the arrival of German immigrants, who came to America in the 1850’s. The Socialist Party of America was born in 1901 as part of the progressive movement, and grew dramatically during the early years of the century. Many presidents from that time forward were arguably “socialistic” They include Teddy Roosevelt, FDR, Wilson, Eisenhower, Kennedy and Johnson. All expanded the role of the federal government, introduced social welfare programs and took steps to rein in the excesses of business. With their history of taxing, spending, entitlements and government controls one would think that the United States would have long ago succumbed to the evils of Socialism in its most extreme form…the demise of free enterprise and the establishment of a communist state. Yet that has not been the case. No one can deny that Capitalism is alive and well in America. The fact is that we have not become more Socialistic at all, just more fearful and ignorant of it. One has to wonder how many of these programs, many of which define who we are as a nation- would have made it into law in today’s political environment.


When put into the perspective of history, Obama is far from the most “Socialistic president. In fact, actual socialists disown him: Frank Llewellyn, the National Director of the Democratic Socialists of America, the country's largest socialist organization, said Obama is most definitely not one of them. "He's not any kind of socialist at all. He called the president "a market guy," which is hardly a compliment coming from a man with serious reservations about market capitalism.

"He's not challenging the power of the corporations," Llewellyn added. "The banking reforms that have been suggested are not particularly far reaching. “Llewellyn offered his belief that Republicans have historically called opponents "socialists" in order to stop moderate reforms, and that the new stickiness of the Obama/socialist association is one part misinformation, one part ignorance. "The Republicans are doing the same thing they did when Roosevelt was president -- confusing somebody who is trying to save capitalism from itself with somebody who is trying to destroy it. (Obama) is not trying to destroy capitalism."


Yet, since Obama has been president, the level of hysteria about Socialism has been at a high not seen since the McCarthy era “commie scare” . If Obama is, by some measure a Socialist, it is only in the long tradition of United States Presidents using government to level the playing field and improve the lives of people. There is no evidence whatsoever to support accusations that Obama is a Marxist and while not a pure Capitalist, he is no more of Socialist than many who came before him. The labels of “Socialist” and “Marxist “ stems from an ignorance these terms, as well as of history, distrust and fear of someone who is seen as different, and a measure of anti government hysteria and clinically diagnosable paranoia. The fear is simply not reality based.

While Sanders is considerably further to the left than Obama or Clinton, he does not want to dismantle capitalism and free enterprise either, nor does he want to do away with our representative democracy. Rather, he is a socialist in the tradition of the earlier progressive movement.

yes, dear; unfettered capitalism is what did it.

a typical and total idiot liberal wants the poor not to starve by getting steak and lobster with food stamps and has no concern about moral hazard.

See why we say stupid??

it doesn't have to be food stamps; but, what moral hazard are you referring to?

equality is not a moral hazard, except to the Right.

I can claim it was based on capitalism since they were dispossessed.
