Next time you hear someone criticizing socialism...

A tiger living in captivity has at least one meal a day, where he may go several days without food in the wild, but the second he sees an open gate...

he eats the first stoner he sees.....? ~S~

This doesn't bode well for danielpalos

"Underlying most arguments against the free market is a lack of belief in freedom itself." — Milton Friedman

Uncca Milt is a study, that said, free markets brought us globalism, rather slipper slope.....~S~

And all three led to a global financial crash.

Sounds like freedom carries with it personal responsibility.

Unfortunatley, bankers lend money without exercising restraint.

Because they have no consequences for stupidity.

Big Bro government will bail them out anyway. Why bother being responsible?

If America went Socialism, people who will make sure it doesn’t apply to them will be the very politician advocating it.

That's the thing. Socialists like to pretend that their system does away with greed and ambition. It doesn't. It just channels it into government.

Agree. Do you think AOC is going to quit advocating Socialism now that Capitalism rewarded her with $10 Million from Netflix for promoting Socialism?

She’ll be standing there with her hand out while telling her constituents to eat The Socialist Cake She Baked

If you are a stupid Moon Bat that hates corporations then it is an easy fix. Just don't buy any goods or services from a corporation. Problem solved.

The socialism they advocate only applies to the unwashed masses.

The only function of Socialism is to enrich the oligarchy and enslave the peasants to a mundane subsistence existence.

well then you nailed it Mr Tree

The Fed and fiat banking have driven more wealth inequality than any other source....They're the ones who get to create money out of nothing, then charge interest on it.

Who gets to do that? Who do they charge for it?

If the free market will support worker co-ops, they will thrive.

So far...not happening.

If this was still a 'free market' there wouldn't be any billionaires.
Watch the movie Wall Street (1987) There were no billionaires back then just 30 years ago( Rothschilds, Saudi Royalty and a few others, but that's all). Being super-rich like Gordon Gekko meant having $100 million. Today, the average rich person's yacht costs more than that.

I guess Oliver Stone's version of history isn't always 100% accurate.
Today there are 2,208 billionaires worth a total of $9.1 trillion.
There are a record 2,208 billionaires in the world, according to Forbes' 2018 rich list

The movie never claimed there were no billionaires.

Where has she promoted socialism?

On her website. In interviews. Have you been paying no attention at all?

Good question. Not.
