Show me a nation implementing the failed liberal ideology and I will show you a nation which has nothing but famine, poverty, and misery spreading at an alarming rate. There isn't a debate to be had any more. History has proven your ideology to be a failed ideology. The only reason the U.S. is still standing is that we've managed to maintain just enough free-market capitalism to keep us afloat. But it won't last long as liberals have managed to pile up over $19 trillion in national debt ($9 trillion by Barack Obama alone).
Everything in your post is bullshit. It's the free market economy which drives up prices, and drives down wages. Every chart and graph on income and savings since the Great Depression shows growth for the middle class, until Reagan changed the tax policy of the US. At that point, wages started to stagnate and the savings of the middle class and poor started to disappear.
These changes have also destabilized the US economy, leading to the two largest stock market crashes since the Great Depression.
Until the US abandons it's failed experiment with conservative economic reforms, especially the wage subsidies being received by corporations in the form of "earned income credits". This is nothing but corporate welfare. Middle class Americans subsidizing wages for the countries largest, most profitable corporations. This is the greatest transfer of wealth - all to the top, in the history of mankind.
For someone who rails against the left's "free stuff", why do you support this crap? This is what is bankrupting America. How much money does the Walton Family need. Why is every taxpayer in America contributing to the $9 billion dollars which Walmart employees receive from the federal government?
As for France declaring a state of economic emergency, if you read the actual article, this declaration is hyperbole. It's a rallying cry for the French to invest in reducing the 10% unemployment rate.
But I've noted that you conservatives often post links you don't bother to read.[/QUOTE]
You know what is really funny? Everything I post is backed up with facts, statistics, links, etc. Everything that
you post is just winded-ramblings of your uninformed
opinions. I completely anihilated your ignorant opinions with
facts. Canada, England, France, Greece, etc. are all collapsing under the weight of idiot liberalism just like Cuba, U.S.S.R., Cambodia, etc. did.[/QUOTE]
You did nothing of the sort. None of those countries are "collapsing". Cuba, Cambodia, USSR were all left-wing authoritarian dictatorships, not social democracies.
I'm the one who's posting links backed up with facts and figures. You don't even bother to read the links you post, because they sure don't say what you think they say.
You are utterly ignorant as to how the rest of the world lives. Canadians, for example, are happier, healthier, with a longer life expectancy than Americans, and are home to the fastest growing middle class in the world. We've had a slowdown in our economy due to the fiscal policies of the Conservative government over the past ten years.
Like the US under it's conservative economic policies, wages are stagnating and infrastructure is crumbling. True conservatives, they created a mini-recession by cutting spending too fast. Fortunately, we now have a Liberal government which immediately began investing in infrastructure.
