Here is why Americans socialists hope to emulate Hitler.

[80zephyr]

Trump is making moves heading towards closing the US economy. He is forcing more manufacturing in the USA and more consumption of USA product. That is a closed or closing economy which is the key characteristic of a pure socialist economy.

A free and open economy is the bellweather of capitalism.

You call yourself a capitalist and advocate for free markets but you don't even know what they are. Typical MAGA.

Only if every country you deal with is fair and equitable.

Why don't Democrats understand how vastly different Fascists are from the Nazi Socialists. Corporations were created in the USA before George Washington was president. Why do you literally hate his Government?

I don't hate Washington's government.

This is interesting. Corporations in America were legalized without a legislative act beginning in the 1830. The concept of corporations has evolved over centuries, with different forms of legal recognition emerging at various points in history:

Early Origins​

• Medieval France (1300s–1400s): One of the earliest known corporations was the Bazacle Milling Company in Toulouse, France. It was formed in 1372 and operated as a joint-stock company, with shares that could be bought and sold. This company is often cited as the oldest known corporationwith a surviving incorporation document
  

Modern Commercial Corporations​

• 17th Century Europe: The rise of modern corporations began with state-chartered trading companieslike:
  • The Dutch East India Company (VOC), chartered in 1602.
  • The British East India Company, chartered in 1600.
  These were the first corporations to issue publicly traded sharesand operate across continents, laying the foundation for modern capitalism

  .

United States​

• In the U.S., corporations were initially chartered by individual states for specific public purposes (e.g., building infrastructure). Over time, laws evolved to allow general incorporation, where businesses could incorporate without a special legislative act. This shift began in the early 19th century and expanded rapidly.

That is not a great thing either, capitalism.

Take a good look at Socialism.

America got where it is thanks to Corporations.

I do all of that. However I am fully aware of what they are. MAGA stands for make America great. I support that. Why don't you support that too?

I see how large Corporations go bankrupt. Citizen owners lose tons of investments and income when they go bankrupt. Enron is one example and so is Ling Temco Vought.

Sears and Roebuck and Montgomery Wards. Plymouth and Oldsmobile. Both good cars no longer exist.
Nobody in their right mind will say Corporations all have it good.

What about under Biden?

Here are 12 well-known companies that went bankrupt in 2024​

By Jordan Valinsky, CNN

This year was brutal for a number of well-known companies and their bottom lines.

As inflation continued to rear its ugly head, consumers slashed their discretionary spending, tilting some companies to file for bankruptcy. Other brands fell victim to changing trends or even more malicious ailments, like cyberattacks.

At least 19 companies have cut a combined 14,000 jobs because of bankruptcies, according to Challenger, Gray & Christmas, an outplacement services firm.

Notably, retail closures have picked up this year because the sector’s sugar high of 2021 and 2022 — when consumers were buying new furniture, televisions and clothing — has ended. There have been more than 7,100 store closures through the end of November, according to research firm CoreSight — a jump of 69% compared to the same time a year ago.

Of course, filing for bankruptcy doesn’t necessarily mean a business is going bust. Companies tend to use the Chapter 11 process to wind down some operations, tackle mounting debt and save on costs by closing locations.

Here are some of the most notable bankruptcies of 2024, listed alphabetically:

Big Lots​

Big Lots filed for bankruptcy in September, after previously warning that it had “substantial doubt” about its survival. The discount retailer recently announced that its deal to sell itself to a private equity firm had fallen through and it will soon close its remaining 963 locations.

Bowflex​

Perhaps best known for its late-night informercials, the at-home gym equipment maker filed for bankruptcy in March. It emerged from Chapter 11 a few months later, signing a deal with a Taiwan-based company to “acquire substantially all of the assets” for $37.5 million in cash.

Express​

The once-trendy mall staple filed for bankruptcy in April after consistently struggling with continued missteps over its merchandise mix that failed to get shoppers excited. As a result, nearly 100 locations closed and the company, which also owns the Bonobos brand, sold itself to a consortium led by WHP Global in June.

What are your thoughts on Trump's 6 bankruptcies?

 

[ElmerMudd]

Only if every country you deal with is fair and equitable.

If you say country, meaning the government of the country not the businesses in the country, you are implying governments are unfair ane unequitable. If governements are influencing companies it is not a free markeyt. No government does not have some regulations over businesses, the issue is how much. The less government regulation t5he freer the market. Unfortunateltly bad actor businesses need regulations. Nothing is absolute.

 

[ElmerMudd]

I do all of that. However I am fully aware of what they are. MAGA stands for make America great. I support that. Why don't you support that too?

The differences are what makes America great.

What are your thoughts on Trump's 6 bankruptcies?

He has never filed personal bankruptcy. He has had business go bankrupt. He owns over 250 entities.

 

[80zephyr]

The differences are what makes America great.

Proof? Where has multiculturalism or diversity strengthened our country?

All of that applies to Trump et al.

Incorrect.

First issue. Authoritarian rule. We must face this fact. Democrats are true authoritarians. Democrats, such as Bernie Sanders, promote socialism. Few Democrats despise socialism. Talk to them and they always praise it. Claim is it works in Scandanivia. They will pick countries who they think are socialist and by golly tell you how fine they are. Republicans never do this. And that is a major conflict among Democrats and we Republicans. We want Government out of your business. We love the Constitution but what did it do to Government. It was designed to keep Government out of your business. It was not set up as a socialist state.

They know Hitler was a socialist yet tell you he was not. Why defend Hitler?

Some of Hitler's benefits will prove he was a socialist.

This bit does not mention Hitlers free health care. Free vacations. It does mention stoking national price. But by being Socialist.

Under Hitler, Germany saw significant economic benefits through a combination of public works programs, rearmament, and a shift in economic policies. The Nazis implemented large-scale public works projects like building the autobahn and creating new jobs in various industries, including the military. This led to reduced unemployment and boosted the German economy.

Economic Benefits:

• Reduced Unemployment:
  Public works programs and rearmament efforts led to a significant decrease in unemployment, creating jobs in construction, industry, and the military.
  
  
• Economic Growth:
  The Nazis' spending on public works and rearmament stimulated economic growth and helped to improve living standards for some segments of the population.
  
  
• Profitability for Companies:
  The increased demand for goods and services related to public works and rearmament led to increased profits for major industrial companies.
  
  
• Infrastructure Development:
  The autobahn project and other public works initiatives improved infrastructure and facilitated transportation.

Social and Psychological Impact:

• Increased Social Cohesion:
  The economic successes under the Nazis, particularly the reduction in unemployment, helped to increase social cohesion and support for the regime.
  
  
• National Pride:
  The economic achievements and military buildup fostered a sense of national pride and a belief in the strength of the Nazi state.

You've got it bass ackwards. Democrats are the original scum here. You are putting the cart before the horse.

One of the Nazi jurists involved in the drafting those infamous Nuremburg Blood and Soil laws that led to the holocaust, Heinrich Krieger, was sent to America by the Nazi party to learn the ways of the Democrats.

After all, no other modern civilization on the planet had shit like Jim Crow laws, anti-miscegenation laws, forced segregation et cetera like the Democratic party had in their solid south. The Democratic party had different drinking fountains depending the fucking color of your skin. They are that fucking petty and obsessed with hate.

The Nazi party sent Krieger to the University of Arkansas school of law to learn how to implement a legal framework for wide scale racial oppression in Germany.

The Democrats are not emulating the Nazis, it's the other way around. The Nazi's emulated the US Democratic party.

The Democrats are the original scum.

Wrong. Trump is the authoritarian. He rules by decree (EOs), usurps Congress, and attacks the judiciary and the press.

 

[Failzero]

Wrong. Trump is the authoritarian. He rules by decree (EOs), usurps Congress, and attacks the judiciary and the press.

If that were the case there would have been 250 thousand illegals deported by now

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

Wrong. Trump is the authoritarian. He rules by decree (EOs), usurps Congress, and attacks the judiciary and the press.

Indeed, that is true. The law is the rulebook, and Trump does not get to decide what he likes and will follow and what he won't. Not how it works.

Democrats promote and celebrate the slaughter of innocent, unborn babies. This originated with Margaret Sanger who proposed it for racist reasons, to "rid" America of blacks she so despised.

Democrats promote and celebrate homosexuality, transgender insanity, Woke craziness, homelessness and poverty. They hate and despise wealthy Republicans but look the other way at wealthy Democrats such as George Soros, John Kerry, Nancy Pelosi, Hollywood Glitterati, and the grossly overpaid mass media stars of MSNBC, ABC, The View, and on and on.

"Public education is a socialist monopoly, a real one." - The Late Milton Friedman

High schools and colleges are run by Leftists who brainwash impressionable students methodically, hatefully, destructively.

Tee shirts at Columbia University read "I was born into this sewer called 'capitalism.' "

A majority of college students think socialism is superior to capitalism. People in socialist or communist countries know differently. This is why America has more foreign born residents than the next four nations COMBINED ! ! !

Biden supporters, get out and go wherever you think is superior. Cuba is close and has the kind of medical system you rave about.

Obama deported millions of illegals without a peep of squealing by Democrats. Trump proposes the same and the Leftists go ape s***.
Pure, unmitigated hatred.
