How about some examples of this “socialism” stuff y’all are afraid of?

[BlindBoo]

You know, free school, like what grandpa got after serving in WWII...

School isn't really free, never has been. Who do you think pays for the building, the teachers, the utility bills etc...

I do..next...

Socialist.

Oddly...Trump considers the leaders of both China and North Korea to be his buddies.

Keep your friends close, your enemies closer.

But why shouldn't we try to be buds with these guys?

Do we not all want a peaceful world?

Do we not want to get along with other nations?

Is government-funded education an example of socialism or not, dipshit?

Most of them (with the exception of the childish big mouth giving the finger to the world) are embarrassed to admit that they actually DO hate public education

How’s Venezuela socialism doing?

Bad . For many reasons . Mainly corruption.

How’s UAE socialism doing ?

American socialism programs seem to be doing great .

Have any clue on just how much fraud is going on with your social programs?
Do you even realize how much it's costing, or do you even care?

 

[easyt65]

Yea...you derailed yet ANOTHER thread.

You asked for examples, did you not?

They say 'seeing is believing' and 'a picture is worth a thousand words', so there ya go. You're welcome.

(If you don't really want an answer / examples, don't ask for them.)

Admitting you lied is a good start to redemption.

Both my mother and father went to college on the GI bill after serving in Germany during the occupation.

Damn those socialist!

My taxes pay for it, next...Duh. I see Texicans is still as dumb as an Okie.

So then it's not "free" like you said.

Damn, one post you say it's free, the next you say you pay for it and when your hypocrisy is revealed you call me dumb. Oh and it's not nor has it ever been Texican, it's Texan or the old Texian term. I assume it was just a lame attempt at an insult on your part, but it does make you look childish and stupid.

Typical socialist double talk I suppose......

Cons seem to love tagging everything they don’t like as “socialism “ . The word has lost all meaning .

How about some real life examples of American socialism? And how it’s hurt us .

I’ll give you an example : US socialism going waaaay back to the 1800s . When the gov purchased and then opened up the west and gave away land to Americans.

How about we don't need to cite examples of it to know we are against it?

If you are against eating pork, do we require you to show us the pork you are against?

Dude politics ain't religion...well it shouldn't be.

Religion is based on faith and unsubstantiated beliefe

There are people who don't eat Pork because pigs are "filthy animals."

they simply use the term to appeal to emotion.

Socialism: a political and economic theory of social organization which advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a whole.


Example, our roads and schools are an example of socialism.

Our infrastructure was originally built entirely by private industry, with the exception of some post roads. But our steamship lines and canals and railroads were all built by private industry with ZERO government funding.

Does our government own the production of roads, schools etc..?

A system cannot be called socialism without the government collectively owning the means of production.

The G.I. Bill is not an entre to Socialism.

But many colleges are.

The worst example is SS. By far. It's a socialist program that pretty much insures you will never be getting any value for your investment.

How about some real life examples of American socialism? And how it’s hurt us.

Let’s see...

$539.88 of my paychecks YTD taken for Social Security Tax.

$125.26 similarly for Medicare Tax.

That’s $665.14 as of last week that has been stolen from me already this year for programs I do not and never will benefit from, and which are wholly unconstitutional.

And that means we should add more Socialist programs?

We were Socialist during WWII

The New Deal was certainly socialist.

It went well beyond the New Deal

After Pearl Harbor, the Government took control of our industrial production, decided who built what, controlled all critical resources and where workers were allocated.

Socialism won WWII

How’s Venezuela socialism doing?

Venezuela is not a socialist country. Despite Maduro's efforts, most of the means of production and distribution of goods are still under private control.
