Capitalism is NOT Democratic: Democracy is NOT Capitalist

Cartoons, and other simplistic, populist nonsense, have long been a staple of communist propaganda. They're not trying to make logical argument, just an emotional appeal. They employ envy, fear, racism, slurs, paranoia etc.... to incite the rabble. Much like Trump. ;)

Because capitalists control every government on the planet today.
Private profits.
Social costs.
Capitalism guarantees market failure due to its inefficiency to allocate certain goods and resources, leading to failures such as monopolies and monopolistic competition.
Wrong. The USA was the only country to embargo Cuba.

Everything you post is a flat-out lie. If socialism is so superior, it shouldn't matter what capitalist countries do. 200 years ago, England and America were the only two capitalist countries in the world. Why didn't all the other countries crush them economically?
 
nskilled workers (cough...you...cough) are not the economy.
Speculators destroy the economy:

Overthrow the Speculators

"Speculators at megabanks or investment firms such as Goldman Sachs are not, in a strict sense, capitalists.

"They do not make money from the means of production.

"Rather, they ignore or rewrite the law — ostensibly put in place to protect the vulnerable from the powerful — to steal from everyone, including their shareholders.

"They are parasites.

"They feed off the carcass of industrial capitalism.

"They produce nothing.

"They make nothing.

"They just manipulate money.

"Speculation in the 17th century was a crime.

"Speculators were hanged."

We've heard all your commie talking points 10,000 times already.
 
It's normal for unemployment to decrease after a recession. However, normally it goes back to the prerecession rate within a couple years
What "recession" are you confabulating?

Putting People Back to Work [ushistory.org]

"Unlike Herbert Hoover, who refused to offer direct assistance to individuals, Franklin Roosevelt knew that the nation's unemployed could last only so long.

"Like his banking legislation, aid would be immediate.

"Roosevelt adopted a strategy known as 'priming the pump.'

"To start a dry pump, a farmer often has to pour a little into the pump to generate a heavy flow. Likewise, Roosevelt believed the national government could jump start a dry economy by pouring in a little federal money."
 
The New Yorker is a left-wing propaganda rag. It's about as left as you can get.
Ad hominem arguments make you appear ignorant, lazy, and stupid.

Is Capitalism a Threat to Democracy?

"Today, as in the nineteen-thirties, strongmen are ascendant worldwide, purging civil servants, subverting the judiciary, and bullying the press.

"In a sweeping, angry new book, 'Can Democracy Survive Global Capitalism?' (Norton), the journalist, editor, and Brandeis professor Robert Kuttner champions Polanyi as a neglected prophet.

"Like Polanyi, he believes that free markets can be crueller than citizens will tolerate, inflicting a distress that he thinks is making us newly vulnerable to the fascist solution."
 
Nope.
Foreign supplies are so much larger than ours that we have very little influence on international oil or gas prices.

You're full of shit.
US oil production is more than 11 million barrels a day.
World production is about 99 million barrels a day

If we stopped domestic production entirely, the prices would not change significantly.

It's good to know that your ignorance is both wide and deep.

If we use freight trains do to the fact Amtrak has so little use, we get an average factor of 190.5.
Compare that with a car at only 35.7, and we get a factor of only 6.
So then the 100 claim most likely then was wrong.

Yeah, 6 isn't even close to 100. DURR
