Yes dear, it was when capitalism failed us that socialism bailed us out.
Really? Where did Socialism get resources?
The collective of the People. It really is that simple, except to the right.
No... Socialism
provides for the collective of the people... where do they get their resources?
In the usual and customary manner. Socialism requires social morals for free, and it may include a work ethic.
Any more diversions?
It's not a diversion, I asked a question and you've still not answered it.
You claimed when capitalism failed, Socialism bailed us out...
I asked: Where did Socialism get resources?
So far, you've answered: The collective of the people.
But Socialism
provides for the collective of the people.
Then you respond: Socialism requires social morals for free and it may include a work ethic.
That sentence doesn't even make any sense. A commonality in most of your posts.
Let's talk about "work ethic" since you did mention that...
In a free market capitalist system, a strong worth ethic results in greater wealth acquisition. In a Socialist system, there is no benefit. This is one of the primary reasons Socialist systems always fail. Having a strong work ethic is pointless when your work doesn't benefit you or your family. In the Socialist "everyone for the collective" ideology, the individual's work ethic declines over time. Eventually, the individual work ethic devolves into whatever minimal requirement can be maintained. Socialism fails because it fails to recognize the potential in the individual or reward it accordingly.
Let's imagine a Socialist and Capitalist widget company. You work for the Socialist company and I work for the Capitalist company. Your company says you need to produce 100 widgets per day minimum. You can't make more money by producing more than 100 widgets and you must remain at your job until the 100 widgets are completed. My company says I need to produce 100 widgets per day but if I make more than 100, I can get a bonus of $1 per widget. If I produce less than 100, my pay is reduced accordingly. Which system is going to result in greater production? As you can see, it will be the Capitalist system because "strong work ethic" is being rewarded. I'm going to produce as many widgets as I can because the more I produce the more money I make.
So your "strong work ethic" is rewarded in a Capitalist system and taken for granted in a Socialist system. A strong work ethic is only worthwhile if there is a benefit to the individual.
