Long term?Socialism and a good economy cannot coexist.Something is wrong with you.I would rather have the economy that Republicans (House, Senate, and states) left Trump, instead of the economy that Democrats left Obama (who in turn made it exponentially worse).Would you rather have the economy Obama left Trump or the economy Bush left Obama?
Obama’s economy was from 2009 - 2010. It was among the worst economies in U.S. history. Then the American people turned to the Republican Party and things started to get better. After 8 years of Republican control, the economy is hitting record highs in the market and near record lows in unemployment.
Of course, if this “blue wave” actually crashes down on America (appropriate analogy), things will go to shit as the Dumbocrats fuck everything up. And of course, they will try to blame it all on Trump.
That’s why I pray that Republicans gain even more seats in the November 2018 election (as is expected). If we have at least 4 years of complete Republican control (and the prosperity that invariably goes with it), it will make progressives look even more absurd when they try to blame their failures on conservative policy once the left is back in control.
And economy as big as the US economy doesn't change overnight. It takes momentum. At least of a couple of years of bad policy. Republicans ran the entire government under Bush for 5 years.
Five years of disaster, unpaid for wars, economic polices that favored the rich, trillions in tax cuts for the rich, enormous deficits.
All that was handed to Obama.
To think that Republicans fuked the country for 8 years and then suddenly did good under Obama is ludicrous. The policies they are following now will bring down the economy even faster than Bush did because they are so much much worse. You can see it coming. Like a freight train. And when it crashes, Republicans will once again, try to blame their mess on Democrats. But that's not always going to work.
History has proven that has never happened and will never happen
And yet Denmark proves you are just blowing smoke up your own skirt.
You have no idea what socialism, or Federal Republic is which comes in many flavors and NO successful Government doesn't borrow from both of them.
Denmark certainly is not been around long term, they’re in debt up to their eyeballs
