A twist: Libs, show us a place on Earth where capitalism failed??

[Billy000]

You know...we spend a lot of time pointing out the catastrophic failures of leftist ideology across the globe. Horrible failures of socialist ideals....like Venezuela. Cuba. USSR. North Korea. Many many more. They respond by naming the Scandinavian nations of Europe (who are mostly all white, strict borders, strict immigration, and have almost no military due to the USA offering protection).

But...how about a twist? Instead of showing libs where socialism has failed miserably (almost everywhere it's been tried)....how about liberals show us places where capitalism has failed!!???

The more capitalist a nation becomes....the stronger and wealthier they become. Fact.

The United States. South Korea. Japan.

Why is it that socialism almost always fails....yet...capitalism almost always works?

America's system of capitalism is going to collapse in the coming decades unless major reforms are made.

I agree. Capitalism is currently in the late fall or early winter of its lifespan.

I don't think capitalism itself is bad. I just think the American version has become completely unstable. If it were better regulated, it could succeed.

I agree that capitalism is good - if fairly regulated and supported by democratic socialism.

Socialism and capitalism have always co-existed in America. Socialism is not a bad thing. It is a foundation in this country of ours. Claiming socialism is bad because of radical and non-factual comparisons to Hitler and Stalin is like saying all guns are bad because of the Columbine killers and Jared Loughner. Socialism is a glue that binds us together and makes possible the things that we could not accomplish as individuals working against each other.

75 Ways Socialism Has Improved America

Spot on. I don't get why you like Hillary over Bernie.

American capitalism has failed us: We’re overworked, underemployed and more powerless than ever before

Denmark, Norway and Sweden are all thriving under democratic socialism. Why is it so difficult for us to embrace?

Let's have more democratic socialism.

Why do you admire these nations which are almost all white and staunchly anti immigrant?

When will you tire of coming up with these lame thread ideas? You are so off base that explaining it to you is a task that nobody wants. Too boring.

You should stick to dead cop threads and various comments about thug life in Chicago. The stuff that requires thinking isn't for you.

Et tu, Brute'.

In other words....you can't refute it.

Capitalism makes a society richer and more powerful. Always.

Yeah and it guarantees widening income inequality thus making it unstable.

Income inequality has grown the fastest under Obama, who supports the same economic policies you endorse.

What is your definition of failure?

Conservatives want 100% pure unfettered capitalism because they don't actually grasp what capitalism actually is, not to mention the fact that most of them are closet authoritarians. Having "socialist" elements within a capitalistic system (as we have now) actually provides competition for capitalism itself, keeping it on its toes, fixing the parts that need fixing and improving the parts that need improvement. This should be something they would support. An example, the USPS being a "socialist" entity inspired entrepreneurs to start FedEx and UPS because they felt they could do a better job. Of course the USPS still exists because it works, we are still benefiting from FedEx/UPS.

I've noticed that a lot of right wingers (more so libertarians) hate, HATE any element within our society that helps each other. They would much prefer living in a society full of selfish assholes who never, EVER help anyone, everyone fends for themselves in all situations, if someone's house catches on fire -- they have to put it out themselves, they want a society with people who go after criminals themselves, they want all libraries to be closed permanently, they want the government to do absolutely nothing, etc. They want hell on Earth.

Please show us the source and link that says, and I'll quote you: "Conservatives want 100% pure unfettered capitalism because they don't actually grasp what capitalism actually is, not to mention the fact that most of them are closet authoritarians."

If you cannot, you are lying and the rest of your post is likewise...worthless.

Simple, American capitalism has become drastically over regulated which has driven thousands of companies out of the United States. Precisely one of the reasons for Brexit. The citizens, the VOTERS are sick and tired of bloated bureaucrats dictating and regulating their every move. Bureaucrats who had never seen Britain and who the voters had never seen deciding their every move. What hairdryer they could buy, toaster and then cramming 300,000 refugees into their country.

Sound familiar? Why is Donald Trump so popular? Did he not forecast what was going to happen in Britain?

The strong get stronger.
The weak die and get out of the way so the strong can continue being strong.

Which, according to Karl Marx, much like Bernie Sanders never worked a real job, says is the next step from Capitalism to Communism. See the Cloward-Piven Strategy.

Lied about what? My opinion? How can someone lie about their own opinions? I realize conservatives often confuse truth with opinion, so maybe that's why you're so confuzzled. It's confusing stuff, isn't it?

Actually that is what Libertarians want.
Conservatives want minimum non-invasive government to step in only in such cases where they are better able to handle things than the private sector which is uncommon.
