Well that’s what most people call “socialism” nowadays. Real socialism just refers to workers owning factories/businesses rather than a “boss”.Neither of those are examples of socialism. They’re just expansive welfare states.

Those bosses sold out the American workforce. People moan about unions but we damn sure miss them having teeth like they use to. I suspect it’ll come back
It got FDR elected 4 times and Western Europe seems to be doing well
Exhibit 1 million that dims only care about November with this virus
Schiff, Feinstein, Harris formally propose 9/11-style commission to probe coronavirus response
Reps never brought Obama up for impeachment. They never made up hoaxes to accuse him of breaking the law. No president in American history has been treated like our current president. That’s a fact.If a Democrat was in office, Republicans would do the same thing. The only thing either party cares about is winning. This has been proven many times over.
Republicans wanted to impeach Obama over anything and everything. Just like Dems want to impeach Trump over anything and everything.
Just like Dems wanted W out of office. Just like Republicans wanted Clinton out of office. And on and on we go.
You have to know that.
Parties exist to win elections. Everything else is secondary. Full stop.If a Democrat was in office, Republicans would do the same thing. The only thing either party cares about is winning. This has been proven many times over.

Free Market Capitalism in a democracy squashes Socialism, Communism, Naziism, etc exponentially, but it can't be hamstrung by unnecessary rules and regulations, and yes, I know some are necessary. But the Fed. Gov't needs to stay out of the way, along with greedy politicians and many special interest groups for the most part.Awww, mcgill is this your first time having someone tell you trickle-down doesn’t work?

It’s okay to acknowledge something doesn’t work the way it should on paper; doesn’t mean I prefer communism or naziism or anything else (I wish healthcare was socialized more than it is now, the advantages are pretty clear in a pandemic with 6m people losing their jobs and healthcare or whatever). The point is nothing is perfect and everything is open to critique, capitalism included. We can do that without name-calling, I would think.
