Albert Einstein: Why Socialism?

[bedowin62]

The U.S. didn't suffer through a recession?

I guess it was just that liberal media lying to us again.

Detroit has been decaying for years you laughable self-deceiving idiot

has nothing to do with the last recession that affected all of America

the best part is you're being serious! lol

For years you say?

So we had socialism happening in this country before Obama was president?

When did it start? During Bush? Reagan?

Let's see you back pedal now, turnip.

Carter you dolt!


lol

 

[blackhawk]

I believe Einstein also said doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result is the definition of insanity that would seem to be a pretty accurate take on socialism given the number of countries who have tried it and failed with it.

And yet the most successful and prosperous countries today all have many more elements of socialism than we do here in the U.S. Why is that?

What countries would those be?

Albert Einstein is the world-famous physicist. This article was originally published in the first issue of Monthly Review (May 1949). It was subsequently published in May 1998 to commemorate the first issue of MR‘s fiftieth year.
—The Editors

"Is it advisable for one who is not an expert on economic and social issues to express views on the subject of socialism? I believe for a number of reasons that it is."

Why Socialism?

"The economic anarchy of capitalist society as it exists today is, in my opinion, the real source of the evil. We see before us a huge community of producers the members of which are unceasingly striving to deprive each other of the fruits of their collective labor—not by force, but on the whole in faithful compliance with legally established rules. In this respect, it is important to realize that the means of production—that is to say, the entire productive capacity that is needed for producing consumer goods as well as additional capital goods—may legally be, and for the most part are, the private property of individuals."

The socialist country that he ran away from would've put him in the ovens.

Why even bother responding? You know full well you're just talking directly out of your ass at this point. You're just making it worse every time you feel the need to hit the reply button.

I'll be happy to name some countries which you will nitpick and find something wrong with. Right? Is that the route you want to go?

Or I can let you tell me which countries you consider to be the most successful/prosperous right now and then we can go from there.

Your choice. (even though I know which option you'll be selecting already)

As an economist, Einstein made a great physicist.

Once again, left wing policy does not equal socialism. You're only reinforcing my point further with each post you make. You clearly don't understand the difference. But we both knew that already.

[bripat9643]

No one here understands Capitalism. Don't even bother trying to explain Socialism. Capitalism comes before Socialism BTW.

Yes, Socialism cannot create prosperity, so it attaches itself leech-like to capitalism systems

He understand socialism perfectly.

good one stupid; you want to deny socialism lies on the Left politically?
good the your whole list of countires you are holding as shining examples isnt what you're claiming it is?

and how stupid do you have to be to equate what others are able to do in their countries with what people do in another?

AMERICAN liberals, socialsits, people on the Left; have failed the country miserably

What did we talk about? English only please.

And you are the perfect example of government waste. You are getting a tax payer funded paycheck every week and are too lazy to use spell checker for your rants about your own employer. Do you care that you're a raging hypocrite? Of course not.

Are you a Jew hating fucktwat that thinks they try to undermine society? Yet you quote Einstein, I though antisemitic fucktwats like you live by the theory that Einstein plagiarized and stole his work from some good NAZI scientist? Can't you stay consistent scumbag. But I digress.

Anyways, Einstein was a great scientist that doesn't mean he would be a great economist! Maybe great minds were (are) duped by the crafted used car sales pushing cradle to the grave government oversight. He penned this in 1949, the USSR was in it's infancy stage. USSR (and North Korea vs South Korea also) was the picture perfect controlled experiment we needed on socialism. See they had nearly complete socialism under the communist rule. We had capitalism under the democratic rule. We both became super-powers. One of us became the greatest economy the world has ever seen and one collapse within the same century of it's inception.

Socialism has been proven as a failed policy - Examples: USSR, North Korea vs South Korea, Cambodia, Cuba, Venezuela and YES China (China didn't start becoming the powerhouse they are today until they opened up to private enterprise, private property, foreign investment and YES capitalism)!

Hey goyim trash boy, I am Jewish, I posted a piece from fellow Jew Albert Einstein. Sorry that your goyim "brain" cannot process information and that's your problem not mine you fakakta dreck goyim

The higher the rank, the less the socialism? Really? LOL. Now you've painted yourself in to a fun corner. Can't wait to watch the contortionist act you use to try and get out of this one.

Ok. So Canada, Australia and Denmark are less Socialist than the U.S.?

Which policies would you adopt from those less socialist countries that in your opinion are better than our more socialist policies we have here.

This should be good for a laugh.

YAWN
good one idiot; einstein probably couldnt tie his shoes; no common sense

more proof big-brained melon-head leftists use ignorant losers like you as useful dupes

It doesn't take someone with Einstein's exceptional reasoning ability to understand how the excessive accumulation of a nation's wealth resource will inevitably upset its economic balance and result in all sorts of social and political problems. Yet there is no shortage of those who probably don't have a pot to piss in but who hasten to present empty, nonsensical arguments and hurl insults at those who criticize the effects of inequitable distribution of a nation's wealth.

The only possible reason for taking such an illogical position is the pathology of greed -- which affects even those who have little more than their gluttonous dreams of acquiring excess wealth.
