Comrade Bernard Sanders' Vision For a New Socialist America
What's new about it?
Socialism is merely a means to take wealth from those who earn and create it, and transfer it to those who don't.
It's sometimes put in place with good intentions - the desire to "help" those who earn or create little.
But being horribly open to abuse, it always get perverted into vote-buying and favoritism for randomly-chosen "favored groups", and people with the right connections.
People quickly find that the way to get this free largesse, is to engage in the right political activity instead of working hard to create the wealth.
