Lefties explain our institutions are examples of Socialism; then cry that you dont know the meaning

[Camp]

What's the problem comrade, is it our fault you're too stupid to understand the benefits of socialism?

Socialism is what made the US number one, right?

What made America great was the ability of the working class to get a fair share of the wealth that was being generated,
something that has been steadily eroding for many years now.

Working class still has that ability though it has been severely crippled by the current administration and it's inability to create jobs or promote job growth.

What has been eroding for many years is the work force in which blacks have highest rate of unemployment and labor force non participation.

Federal Reserve looks at the labor markets in eight developed countries and finds participation is falling the fastest in the U.S.


Here’s something unique about America not to celebrate on July 4th: Our shrinking workforce.

On Thursday, the government reported that the U.S. added 223,000 jobs last month. It’s a decent number, and it shows that the economy is still expanding, though not quite spectacularly. The jobs report also included a figure that suggests the labor market is perhaps a lot weaker than many think. The number of people in the workforce dropped by 432,000 in June, to just over 157 million. That translates to 62.6% of the overall population, the lowest the labor force participation rate has been since 1977.

Some have said that the drop in the labor force participation rate is largely about demographics and nothing to worry about. Aging baby boomers are retiring. Middle-aged women, who came roaring into the workforce in the 1970s and 1980s, are now opting out. More kids are staying in school. (Thanks Mr. T!) Indeed, a group of economists basically predicted the current drop in the labor force participation rate all the way back in 2006, well before the recession hit.

Last week, though, a study by the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis took on the notion that the drop is all about demographics and not a sign that the labor market is sicker than we think. The study looked at the labor force participation rate not just in the U.S. but in eight major developed countries, including Sweden, Japan, Canada, Germany, France, Spain, and the United Kingdom. Nearly all of those countries are facing the same demographic trends as the U.S. And Japan is currently dealing with an even more severe case of aging population. And yet, out of the eight nations, the U.S. is the only one where the participation in the labor force is declining.

Look at the last two sentences in your article. The problem being discussed is obviously not about socialism. The countries being compared to make a point about American job losses are more socialist oriented nations than the USA. The article has nothing to do with socialism, meaning since you posted it, you probably have no understanding of what socialism is.

Has nothing to do with your mythical shit, comprehension still fucking your ignorant ass up I see.

I was pointing out the lack of participation in Americas labor force as being highest when compared to 8 other countries.

The lack of participation has direct bearing on who is paying for all these social services, unless you plan on just printing worthless money.

No one said it was capatalism vs socialism, but your non comprehending ignorant, trouble making ass is just too fucking stupid to figure it out.

So what is it like to go through life so fucking stupid??

"Now, we could be measuring all of this wrong. There are far more people in the freelance economy than there used to be, and there are soon to be more, given the rise of sharing economy startups like Uber and AirBnb. If you work for yourself, you are supposed to be captured in the government’s surveys. But if you are being paid in cash and not paying taxes, you may not report yourself as part of the workforce when a government surveyor calls to see if you are currently seeking work. So it could be that the underground economy, which some have measured as growing, makes up for the drop in the labor force participation."

Did you miss this part? And what policies of this administration are causing the drop in labor force participation?

 

[DrDoomNGloom]

1) Socialism benefits the few at the expense of the many: Socialism is superior to capitalism in one primary way: It offers more security. It's almost like an extremely expensive insurance policy that dramatically cuts into your quality of life, but insures that if worse comes to worse, you won't drop below a very minimal lifestyle. For the vast majority of people, this would be a terrible deal. On the other hand, if you're lazy, completely incompetent or alternately, just have a streak of very bad luck, the meager benefits provided by socialism may be very appealing. So a socialist society forces the many to suffer in order to make it easier for the few. It's just as Winston Churchill once noted, "The inherent virtue of socialism is the equal sharing of miseries."

OK, couple of things here.

What specifically do you dislike about socialism, and how does that differ from the way we run current social programs? Don't give me slippery slope or some other weasel excuse. What specifically do you dislike about socialism and how does that differ from the way we run current social programs?

Which socialist program is NOT in trouble?

OK, couple of things here, EPA, OSHA, the clean water you drink and student aid. Secondly, I find it funny that right-wing folks act as though social programs are bankrupting this country, not the unnecessary TRILLIONS spent in foreign wars. The amount we give out in bailouts of "corporate welfare" TRIPLES the amount we pay for personal welfare, food stamps, social security etc.. As for Greece being a failed example of socialism Greece was the primary victim of the 2008 financial crisis when countries of the world shifted their problems around and they landed on Greece. The idea that socialism is what caused Greece to fail is borderline retarded. Since the world governments have been calling for austerity in Greece (the cutback of wages, benefits, social programs etc. ) things in Greece went from slow recovery to a complete landslide back into worse economic chaos. To look for a state that has had more socialism for quite some time and uses it to the benefit of all successfully you have Finland and Denmark to just name two. And while we are at I suppose that you blame social programs for every major financial collapse in America? Who cares that it stems from unregulated, risky banking tactics.

 

[danielpalos]

the Left lectures that all our publicly run programs and institutions are examples of Socialism we already have. then they demand MORE OF THAT, and FIGHT any attempt to privatize anything. Then the same left-wingers that lecture on what socialism is STILL CRY that you "dont know what socialism is" even after THEY told you what it was.

what's up wit that?

Maybe they don't have their argument down pat, like some of us on the federal left.

Socialism starts with a Social Contract like our Constitution not a Capital contract like anything under any form of Capitalism.

EPA? The same fuckups that turned a river into a heavy metal soup? OSHA is unrealistic and adds a lot of cost to construction that we all pay for. Those should be state run, not federal.

The cost of the wars is dwarfed by entitlement spending and it's growing exponentially. It is not sustainable and blaming the evil right wing won't solve it.

Greece spend themselves into bankruptcy, the retard is YOU.
