Poll Finds Most Democrats Prefer Socialism

[DukeU]

Neither would capitalism.

Never said it would.

 

[Asclepias]

If it weren't for the "support" of tax payers, socialism couldn't exist.

This is correct and why it already exists in america but your handlers dont want you to know that.

 

[Asclepias]

Well, I prefer....and, in fact....enjoy the 'socialism' of a community fire department, where I pay for putting out other peoples fires when I have never called them myself for a fire, or an emergency.

I prefer the socialism of the American Social Security system that supports so many many elderly folks who never earned enough to sock away a nest egg that could carry them into their golden years.

I prefer the socialism of a publicly funded military that I have never asked to protect me from an invader to my community, state, or home.

I kinda like the socialism of paying for bridges and highways ....even for those bridges and highways I never use.

I'm OK, with the American socialism of paying significant taxes to educate other people's children.

I'm fairly pleased with the American socialism of Medicare, that pays for a lot of my medical stuff.

I'm fairly certain I could continue this list for quite a bit more, but..........but, hopefully, you get the point.

You just let the cat out of the bag. In a real capitalistic society everyone would hire their own fire dept.

Isn't socialism, benefits that one might receive while NOT paying into it? SMH

 

[gipper]

Maybe someday we will resort to Capitalism to be able to determine if it's better or not. Until then the taxpayers will remain on the hook for propping up the markets.

IMO the crony capitalist quasi Fascist system we have now needs elimination. However if every economic system is ultimately co-opted and controlled by the ultra wealthy, it doesn’t really matter.

You mean like when you are on welfare for all of your life?

 

[DukeU]

I think the op used the term "prefer" not support. Taxes are mandated, and most are not preferred.

The markets have been on welfare for a very long time now.

And? Should they be on the hook for propping up people who don't want to work for a living?

 

[iceberg]

Bet polls will find most republicans prefer an authoritarian oligarchy.

Find one.

As long as the government props up some, I support them propping up all.

Fine you can pay for it.

 

[MisterBeale]

The descendants of the oligarchical collectivists have convinced the decedents of the slaves and decedents of indentured servants, to be slaves and indentured servants once again, and in a technocratic oligarchical collectivist society, with, of course, them at that top.

And it only took 150 to 200 years. . .

Their ancestors would be so proud.

 

[pknopp]

Fine you can pay for it.

Fine, you can pay the billions we gave to prop up corporate farms, the markets. etc.

Didn't say I was for that either.

But at least that direction is, built to TRY and get people to "cop for themselves".

Paying people to sit at home is bullshit but I don't see the relevance to stupid, tax breaks that cities decide for the most part.

As long as we do one, again, I support it for all. Paying failed businesses is B.S. also.

That is an illusion they are selling.

Once the system is put fully in place, folks will either work for the state, the corporations run at the behest of the state, or they will suffer, be imprisoned, and/or die.

China's social credit system makes sure to track those who do not contribute.

In the technocratic nightmare that is coming, there will be no free rides. . . this is just the cheese to entice the obtuse into the trap.

 

[Captain Caveman]

Majority of Democratic registered voters now prefer socialism to capitalism, Fox News poll finds

A new Fox News poll showed that more Democrats favor socialism over capitalism, in a sharp reversal from just a year and a half ago.

now - you won't find many democrats providing proof they are not - simply saying they are not and now attacking FAUX NEWS LOL.

funny they do it but they won't admit that's what it is.

They want everyone to share the misery that socialism brings.

It is a testament to the power of media indoctrination coupled with the same from Academia.

Collectivists have perfected the art of propaganda to such a degree that it is arguable the the masses have no more free will any longer.

With technology there will be a ton of free rides. There will be no other option when so many jobs go automated.
