the definition of socialism
Thanks ,you just proved their is no socialism in this country, just as I said ,there is 4 or five main tenets that can't be found in this country but their is one that without, socialism doesn't exist. in their words"a political and economic theory of social organization that advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a whole." the government owns all factories and sale of it's products. You people are so ignorant on this point that it is nothing but a hoot. In fact in my 73 years , I've never heard one person advocate this , not one. Thank you, you get your brown star for the stupid test.
Well thanks for pointing out that you are an elderly person. It helps explain your inability to read and comprehend. So here is what I said that led to this discussion:
Yes, then we can become another Socialist hellhole which is a liberals wet dream. And by treating them like shit, you mean not giving them things? Then you talk about cutting the budget? You people buy votes with taxpayer dollars, and yet you now say it's the only way of political survival.
Yes I know exactly what you said but you have also repeated this every way possible in the past, I just told you that not only have I never heard anyone advocate that the country owns all the factories or being responsible to sell all their products . So to become socialist has never been the dream of any democrat that I've ever met. My point is you have no clue what your talking about throwing out you Commie and socialist title on everyone who doesn't agree with you and I just proved that the reason you throw that stupid shit around is because he have no idea what the meaning of either is and I proved just that. You lose.
It's not a Democrats wet dream? Then let me ask: During the DumBama leadership, did he not:
Close down roll-your-own cigarette shops across the country?
Stop mail order cigarette sales from Indian reservations?
Close down car dealerships across the country?
Close down coal fired power plants and forced remaining ones to invest millions of dollars for cleaner technology?
Attack Gibson guitar because Gibson supports Republican causes?
Close down the Gulf until a court ordered him to reopen it?
Attack credit card institutions forcing them to stop or limit their fines against customers (likely Democrat voters) from abusing their credit privileges?
Change our entire healthcare system?
Force GM's CEO to leave the company?
So WTF is the difference between Socialism (where the government runs the companies) and what DumBama did for eight years with Democrat support?
