One could make a grand argument that we as a nation have been moving towards a socialist regime , especially given da gub'mit printed and gave away trillions of plandemic $$$

You will never sell socialism to the country folk around here because we will not surrender our land or our freedom.
Maybe in states infested by progressives it might make headway but never in areas dominated by conservatives.
Our kids are raised to appreciate faith, family, friends, freedom & firearms.
Won't happen, ever

that’s not socialism…

Don’t get more socialism than farm subsidies

The government controls what you grow, prices , protects you from losses and natural disasters

PRIMER: Agriculture Subsidies and Their Influence on the Composition of U.S. Food Supply and Consumption - AAF

The U.S. government heavily influences what farmers grow and consumers eat through various policies to subsidize the production of certain crops.

actually yes it does…the farmers still own their land, livestock and crops…they own the means of production.

The govt influencing what is grown and what we eat doesn’t change that. The govt having influence isn’t socialism

did you skip Civics?

Still socialism
Government controls crops, prices, profits

‘US agriculture is socialist’

I think you can ask most any farmer if he wants socialism and you will get a “No”…”He!! No” or something even more negative than that answer from them. They have it in their narrative of the country that the urban liberal Dems are socialists who live in their basement and expect the government...

Capitalism is about letting markets work and we have not allowed that for decades in the ag sector. Letting ag markets work would result in far more farmers going broke along with cycles of high food prices for U.S. consumers. Instead, when markets signal oversupply and that production should be reduced, farm subsidies supplement farmers income enough so that surpluses are instead sustained. Few farmers go broke and consumers get cheap food

This is old news. The problem is we switched to much from real infrastructure foundation to human foundation and lost control of the Fiat Currency at the same time. And every time more human foundation legislation takes place, Progs start the diatribe like what you did. We have trailed in real physical foundation for many years.

Like Medicare recipients bitching about welfare moms.
We are social animals. We go nuts without others of our kind to observe and contrast with ourselves. We're all significantly liberal/conservative, progressive/regressive, and rebellious/authoritarian. Such labels are stupid when applied to relatively powerless individuals. Group associations allow connections. Connections create power. Power enables unearned influence and unreasonable wealth leading to societal collapse. Reasonable upper and lower limits must be publicly monitored, discussed, set, and enforced for a healthy society to endure no matter the kind anyone wants to call it.

Truth is….Rural America survives on Socialism

In a Capitalist world, do you think power and phone lines would be run in sparsely populated rural areas?

In a Capitalist world, would paved roads and bridges be provided in low traffic rural areas?

In a Capitalist world would modern hospitals, schools and public services be provided in sparsely populated rural areas?

But ask a rural resident about Socialism and they will claim they did it all on their own

 

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

Trump sure loved those farm subsidies, especially after his tariffs fucked the Plains states.

I'm responding via my genny power tonight to inform you that 'rural Americans who live in rural America' like myself are fairly self sufficient, sustainable, and have zero f*cks to give about 'socialism' R'winger

You got it ALL backwards
