Who's Afraid of Socialism?

[ElmerMudd]

In 2018, 3 million people fled Venezuela. It was not because McDonalds has tasteless french fries.

pure socialism does not work. Never has, never will.

but pure capitalism is not the only option except for those with diminished intellectual capabilities.

True, there are all manner of options between death and health.

Death is pure socialism and pure capitalism; health is a hybrid.

Pure capitalism would not regulate what products can be sold. Do you have an issue with Marijuana being sold? You are not a pure capitalist.

Pure capitalism does work, but there are numerous people who do everything in their power to destroy it.

Show me a pure capitalist government that has worked in a real world. In a pure capitalist government those who cheat and have no morals more often win. Capitalism with all participants having a moral compass may work, but human being do not all have moral compasses.
The US economy was predominantly capitalist in the late 1800's. The result was the creation of monopolies so companies could not compete and taking advantage of workers.
One of the first to instill capitalist regulations was Teddy roosevelt a Republican

The US was extremely close to pure capitalism until 1914 when the government created the Federal Reserve. During that time it became the biggest and richest economy on planet Earth.

There were no monopolies in the country aside from the ones the government created. You've been brainwashed with Marxist propaganda.

Please,that is the statement of someone who does not know their history. Read your history; Standard Oil, JP Morgan banking, Carnegie Steel.

Pure Marxism is bad, pure capitalism is bad. They are both theories that do not work in the real world.
You hate Marx. You are the equivalent of Marx but on the opposite side. You are what you hate.

In theory (on paper) pure capitalism, marxism, socialism, etc is designed to uplift all. Now add the real world that contains myriads of motivational factors, personalities, fixations, etc and every system ultimately becomes corrupted, pure or otherwise.

I would seriously like to know which paper that is.

There is not a socialistic policy in america. Socialism will never take hold here. It has no support other than a few fringes kooks who are way out there.

What is social security? What is legal unionism? What is a public school system.

Failure.

Try living without them.
The uneducated do not want public education. The educated intimidate people like you.

I would LOVE to live without them. Where can I sign up?

Public education is child abuse, teaching boys that they are girls is seriously damaging. All these facilities are good for seems to be teaching sodomy (although, is this higher education now?), and to those interested I am sure they can figure it out on their own.

Apparently THEORETICAL has no meaning for you. I'm assuming you never took Civics or college level Government, never actually read the theoretical constructs of different political/economic systems.

Each one shows how they are supposed to work in a perfect world, a Utopia so to speak.

Who’s Afraid of Socialism? | Open Media Boston

"Capitalism’s incompatibility with majority interests has been reaffirmed by the current economic crisis.

"Earlier, the most severe effects of capitalism had been offset, within the US, by the progressive reforms of the 1930s.

"But capital’s political power was less restrained in this country than it was in the other rich countries.

"Flush with military might and bolstered by a mass right-wing culture of arrogant self-righteousness, US capital launched a withering counterattack against the New Deal legacy, culminating in an almost three-decade orgy of anti-welfare legislation, imperialist aggression, privatization, and deregulation."

Unrestrained profit maximization results in concentrating an enormous amount of surplus capital which can find few safe investments.

"Free market" capitalists turn to highly speculative scams which generate financial bubbles as the real economy continues to be hollowed out and the working class is driven deeper into debt.

Socialism would turn to government for an alternative, but US government is Goldman Sachs regardless of which major party is in control.

Anybody with any common sense or capacity to commit logic is afraid of socialism. All you have to do is look at Venezuela to see why you have to be insane to adopt such economic policies.

There are no billionaire socialists.
"Being the ex-President's daughter pays off: Hugo Chavez's ambassador daughter is Venezuela's richest woman

• Diario las Americas claims that Maria Gabriela Chavez, 35, has $4.2billion in assets held in American and Andorran banks"

Are you seriously touting this as a victory for Socialism? That the daughter of a corrupt Socialist leader is a billionaire having never done a thing on her own ? Wow dude.

No one advocates for ‘socialism.’

And conservatives are clearly ignorant as to what ‘socialism’ actually is.

I actually have an education. I would say more degrees than you two multiplied, but you don't have anything I would consider a real degree. This is easy to conclude, as you think that there is something "beyond" socialism or capitalism, rather than them being distinct systems one American, the other a complete failure.

I have zero interest in playing your game of "but what about muh social security". But if you are going to play that game, may I at least recommend picking something that's not 30 trillion in debt and one of the biggest failures in policy making in the last century.

Always remember, socialism is cancer.

 

[Pilot1]

I would rather have private control of all the money I paid into Social Security over the years. The government takes it so they can use it against my will, and write IOU's to the SS fund.

 

[Pogo]

Actually your Googly Image reeks of irony, for it actually **DOES** mean it wouldn't have been done, as it was not done in, per my examples, Britain, and Canada, and Australia, all of which (and more) had to deal with a bogus drug that we didn't.

There's nothing you can do about that. You just dug your own hole.

Further, I never posted anything about "FDA is so great". That's your own butthurt hanging out because you've been busted.

Actually it doesn't, as you cannot logically prove a negative.

Actually it already did, as ----- once AGAIN ----- other countries like the aforementioned UK, Canada, Australia, also Germany where the drug was developed --- FAILED to flag that thing down and as a result thousands of Thalidomide babies were doomed to be born as such in those countries. But not here.

Why didn't that happen here? Because FDA threw up the stop sign, that's why. Frances Kelsey got a Presidential medal for it, although she was just doing her job. And that's how it goes down when the job gets done, and AGAIN there's nothing you can do about that. It's history. Had it been left to the drug company a whole lot of Americans would have had the same issues.

But AGAIN --- we didn't.

Sucks 2BU.

And nobody claimed you said the FDA is great, I merely pointed out your flawed belief, based upon the deeper naive belief in the omniscience of The State, that that it is necessary.

Actually --- you did claim that. Read your own post. It's a conditional phrase used as a strawman.
And I shot it down and there ain't nothin' you can do about that either. I cited a glaring example where the system worked, and you stumbled all over yourself trying to make it into a value judgment. OWN that.

As for my being butthurt, don't make me laugh even more than I already have....My belly is starting to ache.

It migrates. That's your problem. Don't want to get your rhetorical ass kicked, don't post silly shit that will make it happen, K?

I have zero interest in playing your game of "but what about muh social security". But if you are going to play that game, may I at least recommend picking something that's not 30 trillion in debt and one of the biggest failures in policy making in the last century.

Always remember, socialism is cancer.

I think you should request your tuition back for all those degrees you have. They didn't provide you an adequate education.
Possibly after your many degrees you did mountains of drugs negating all of your learnings.

"Who's Afraid of Socialism?"

There's nothing to be afraid of.

No one advocates for ‘socialism.’

And conservatives are clearly ignorant as to what ‘socialism’ actually is.

What rot; socialism is the rule of the elite over the masses; it is just a more SHARED power bloc at the top until it moves to its next stage: Totalitarianism; rule by a SMALL elite or a single despot. Freedom?? Laughable.

What you are doing is trying to get rid of charity and compassion for our fellow citizens which is a feature of a Christian nation. You are trying to replace them with some sort of irrational "rights" code. It's bollocks.

I would seriously like to know which paper that is.
I would LOVE to live without them. Where can I sign up?

Public education is child abuse, teaching boys that they are girls is seriously damaging. All these facilities are good for seems to be teaching sodomy (although, is this higher education now?), and to those interested I am sure they can figure it out on their own.

Norman, you are a sick puppy. There is narrow thinking and there is no thinking. You border between the two.

Thinking is what I do, you might be able to do it too if it wasn't for the indoctrination you received.

It is well known fact that even home education far out-ranks public indoctrination.

Apparently THEORETICAL has no meaning for you. I'm assuming you never took Civics or college level Government, never actually read the theoretical constructs of different political/economic systems.

Each one shows how they are supposed to work in a perfect world, a Utopia so to speak.

This is complete hogwash. I am sorry that you had to go through it. It does explain where all the utopian socialists are coming from though. Just substitute their inconsistent and unsound theory for reality and voila! The stupidity knows no bounds.

Oh Norman, you are a sick puppy.
You appear to be extremely indoctrinated. There is no breadth to your thinking. Critical thinking requires breadth of thought.

He probably thinks (and I us the term loosely) we're advocating Socialism over Capitalism.......

Anything beyond capitalism OR socialism is too complex for him to comprehend.

Socialism = Concentration Camp + Gulag. All that changes are the elite in control of YOU!

I would rather have private control of all the money I paid into Social Security over the years. The government takes it so they can use it against my will, and write IOU's to the SS fund.

I'm hoping that President Trump understands this: I'm sure he does.

An overall "downsizing" of government and a virtual end to the arms race have contributed to the surplus, but the vast majority is coming from excess Social Security taxes being paid by the workforce in an attempt to keep Social Security benefit checks coming once the "baby-boomers" start to retire. Of the $142 billion surplus projected by the end of 2000, $137 billion will come from excess Social Security taxes.
