Sorry Bernie people but Nordic countries are not Socialist

[Sunni Man]

What the Nordic countries are based on is actually compassionate capitalism. ...

"If the left insists on naming a system of generous government benefits combined with a free market democratic socialism, I cannot stop them. That seems unnecessarily confusing since the government is actually running no industries other than education (and meddling somewhat in healthcare). It certainly isn’t socialism. In fact, the only reason most such countries can afford those benefits is that their market economies are so productive they can cover the expense of the government’s generosity."

Correct. They're social Democracies.

Why can't the Right see the difference? Is it really that difficult?

Ethnically homogeneous with contributing to society, not taking from, instilled as core values since birth.

Very different than here.

Exactly what Bernie is advocating

Imagine a country that actually does things for........people

 

[Mac1958]

Holy crap, I would love to see Norway held up as an example of "compassionate conservatism" to Trumpsters.

Cue fireworks!

The "country" doesn't have a dime to its name. It's coming out of my pockets and my fellow countrymen. Theft.

 

[SassyIrishLass]

Venzuela....socialism.

How's that working out?

 

[TNHarley]

So the govt regulating and maintaining the market isnt socialism. Then is it fascism? NAZIism? How about what it really is? Authoritarianism.
Calling it a "social democracy" is nothing more than veneer for strong central power. Period.

We don’t have a dime?

We just borrowed $1.5 trillion for tax cuts for billionaires
We have no problem finding money to form a Space Command or build a wall

But for programs to help people?
Our pockets are empty

Haiti is capitalist
How is that working out?

Who’s not getting help?
The poor get...
Housing
Food
High def TVs
Smart Phones

Maybe the poor in Republican Districts live better than the poor in Democratic Districts?

OMG are you stupid.

The "poor" in this country get plenty of help using everyones hard earned tax dollars.

They get an EBT card to buy food. Which we pay for.

Housing which we pay for.

Medical care which we pay for.

Not to mention cell phones.

The poor in America are wealthy compared to the poor in some other countries.

You sure on one stupid fuck.
