Want to see an example of failed socialism. Visit a Native American reservation. Not according to me.

American Native American Activist speaks about how wonderful socialism has been to their people.




Yes, that is a Lakhota member. Not like that fake one that posts here.

Here is another one speaking about the wonderful examples of the greatness of socialism.

Oh, we're using the lowest common denominator to blame an entire political ideology?

Okay, go to Somalia if you want to see an example of a Free Market. They have no government in place, so it's a libertarian's paradise.

That is not a free market, douchebag. That is a collection of war lords. Each is a government.

Beat me to it. I cannot believe how dumb they allow themselves to get. Tried to claim Somalia is a FREE MARKET ENTERPRISE.

It's amazing. I am currently stocking up on food now. Rented a storage space. Suggest the same.

They are a runaway freight train of utter brainwashed nonsense. If somehow we don't enter a thermonuclear war as a result of the shenanigans nato the democrats and globalists have been doing with Ukraine by building bio labs along with other things in order force Russia to concede to the world demands, the starvation strategy will be implemented. Already is.

Make sure you also visit the Ute and Cherokee Nations. If you see someone living in what looks like abject poverty, it's by choice and if you look a bit closer, you'll find a color TV, washing machine. And what may break you up, a toilet with no running water. Just a bucket for you to go out to the well and bring in water to flush with.

Then, right next door, visit the Navajo Rez and see real hard poverty.

When I was growing up, I had friends of Utes and Navajo, just not at the same time. The Utes were very self sufficient while the Navajo were not. Back in those day. the Utes got their government stipend while the Navajoes did not. Today, both get that stipend. It's a joke with the Utes as they don't need it but some Navajo direly need it.

Like the Lakota, the Navajo just plain make bad choices today while the Utes and the Cherokee do not. In fact most tribes make good decisions.

Key phrase in there. Good CHOICES versus BAD CHOICES. See there? Now, it's debatable what constitutes GOOD and BAD cause in today's devilish world, GOOD IS BAD AND BAD IS GOOD, but the point is those that RELY and are CONDITIONED to RELY on government is precisely where THEY want everyone.

Do you see it? It's like an optical illusion. Except it is OPTICAL perspectives and when large groups via propaganda and mass hype create PERCEPTIONS the reality for most is nothing but one gigantic illusion.

Therefore, TRUTH must be and will always be the enemy to this agenda. That agenda is pure control by the power elites.

Always has been and anyone brazen enough to turn over the money changers and interrupt the power structure in any real way are dismissed and eradicated.

Old story, that keeps being told in different ways over millenia.

One can hardly get freer than that. What a big government loving wimp you are.

Oh. You mean it is a command economy? I never knew that.

 

[Mac1958]

Yes, actual socialism as a socioeconomic system is a bad, bad idea.

Somehow this is supposed to be a news flash.

 

[Theowl32]

Oh good, Mac1958 chimed in.

You mean any means of production, distribution or exchange held in common cause, usually through the agency of the state, is a non-starter in your book?

Really?

Crazy, huh?

Yes. Deluded. One can see how the US retains for profit 'health care' and all its inefficiencies and inequities. You actually want dysfunction as an idiological feature.

Nah. I just want capitalism applied properly for a change.

 

[cnm]

Nah. I just want capitalism applied properly for a change.

Lol. Right, there's never been proper capitalism, where the means of production, distribution and exchange are held in private hands.

Ffs.

 

[Mac1958]

Correct. Because there is far more to it than that.

 

[cnm]

Correct. Because there is far more to it than that.

No. There isn't.

 

[Mac1958]

No. There isn't.

Of course there is. There is the degree of regulation, the guardrails. The Left never met a regulation it didn't like. The Right ignorantly thinks regulations are evil.

What neither far end of the spectrum appears to understand is that government involvement in an economy exists on a continuum that must be carefully managed.

But, since communication and collaboration are no longer allowed, we have mangled capitalism to a point at which people are starting to look at other alternatives.

Bad idea, and a self-inflicted wound.

Is a reservation really an example of socialism
