So, lets see how it worked....
Something like that, eh?
So, lets see how it worked.
We live in a capitalist economy.
I'll help you, mark to market accounting was the Lee Harvey Oswald of the Financial Crisis of '08 and they acted alone.
So, I have realized that since the Occupy movement, quite a few people do not understand capitalism. OWS was convinced that capitalism was the cause of their problems and personal failures. Unfortunately, they succumbed to mistaking capitalism for corporatism. If you do not know the difference, please google it. If you think corporatism is capitalism, you will seek government intervention in a way that surpasses corporatism, and that is socialism. These OWSers have it backwards, as do many of Americans.
Capitalism is not the problem, it is the solution. Capitalism has not existed for a century. How about we give it another shot? Get government out of the subsidy game, get government out of anything involving business. Government's only job is to regulate currency and they can't even get that right (see article 1 section 8).
Corporatism is not capitalism...and socialism is not the answer. Get the government out. Restore capitalism.
Thank you.
Of course America has always had social programs in place -

yes but now they are reaching a soviet level and so the economy is performing worse and worse. Don't forget, the second Red China switched to "mostly capitalism" they saved 30 million from en masse liberal starvation. What more do you need to know?
China? Really, that's your example? You realize that over two hundred million people in China live on less than a dollar a day, right? That legal sweatshops and indentured servitude is common there? That's your example?
What more I need to know????
I find a lot of what Libertarians forward, makes sense and just isn't practical and much has been proven to be far from realistic.
Did you just say Republican capitalist China?
OMFG.

as a liberal this will be mostly over your head. Today, 15 million can buy cars in Republican capitalist China, yesterday 15 million starved to death in liberal China. Is that simple enough?

Prisoners as Subsidized Labor
Let me tell you something about government support of industry. If we actually stop, we will be swallowed by those countries that do. Our problem is we don't concentrate on start-up industries but support and subsidize mature industries.
I'll help you, mark to market accounting was the Lee Harvey Oswald of the Financial Crisis of '08 and they acted alone.
mark to market was only one element of the bad accounting that led to the crisis.
Mark to market accounting was the Lee Harvey Oswald of the Housing Bubble that was the root cause of the Financial Crisis.

not according to major Newspspers and Economists on left and right:
"First consider the once controversial view that the crisis was largely caused by the Fed's holding interest rates too low for too long after the 2001 recession. This view is now so widely held that the editorial pages of both the NY Times and the Wall Street Journal agree on its validity!"...John B. Taylor( arch conservative, author of the Taylor Rule)
" The Federal reserve having done so much to create the problems in which the economy is now mired, having mistakenly thought that even after the housing bubble burst the problems were contained, and having underestimated the severity of the crisis, now wants to make a contribution to preventing the economy from sinking into a Japanese Style malaise....... - "Joseph Stiglitz
LOL! Dude your heinous whackjobbery is showing.
1. You call me a Liberal eh? I consider people Liberal or Conservative based on their overall political views. What are you basing this on?
there is no "Liberal" China and "Republican Capitalist China".
BUT if you want to go there fine.
3. I have clients in Beijing and Shanghai. Which would you consider more "Liberal" or "Republican Capitalist" and why? How about rural China? Is there a region that is more "Liberal" or Captialist?
4. Do these "Republican Capitalist" Chinese you're referring to, not have access to government healthcare? Government run schools and universities? Or are they "Public Health Care & Education Using Republican Capitalists"?
Time for you to dodge, change the subject or Cut & Run there junior.
5. In regards to your challenge to provide something that Libertarians profess which is not realistic, I'm happy to. Let's start with the basis of the movement: "If a company is bad or harmful to the public, there is no need for government intervention as The Magical Market will make sure it does not survive." This would be what is known in the world of reality as "complete bs".
Only a fool believes one political party or ideology is right all the time.

you say you are independent of the brains to make a decision. To me thats smells liberal.
there is no "Liberal" China and "Republican Capitalist China".
Im afraid all agree that since 1978 China has made huge economic strides as it has switched to capitalism. Sorry!!
yes yes of course there are huge differences over time and place since no one has a magic want to use to make all of China instantly Republican capitalist but their direction since 1978 is very very clear indeed.
cut and run from what?? you have created a strawman not remotely related to our subject??? Who was talking about health care??????

Well if you feel it is BS you must say why. Did it occur to you to present a reason for feeling it is BS? Yu says its BS; libertarians don't. Does that resolve the issue; have you demonstrated that libertarians are whackjobs???? Think before you post please!!
Only a fool believes one political party or ideology is right all the time.
so then why be so afraid to give your best example of where liberals were right even once and conservatives wrong even once.
it used to be largely communist, now its largely capitalist with about 80% of the economy in private hands.
