Newly Elected Congresswoman Who Grew Up in Soviet Ukraine Gives Stark Warning About Socialism

No you didn't.

How much of my hard earned money is someone else entitled to? I ask again.
Yes, I did. You must have missed it.

In an at-will employment State? Just quit and stop paying taxes if you are not moral enough to help the less fortunate.
Nope. You're dancing around it. Tell me how much. 10%, 20%, 50%, 100%?

morality is subjective
The rich pay more than you. Why do you bother to complain, just get a better job where you won't mind.

I am not complaining. I am asking you a question that you refuse to answer.
 
Only the general warfare is good for the right wing not the general welfare.
What's with all the idiot-babble you're posting today?
It is every day. Ask him how much of your hard earned monies someone else is entitled to and watch him run away. He cannot answer that question. Doesn't compute.
If the rich can't do it with private charity it must be an obligation of Government. And, you merely have nothing but special pleading. Why not create an investment fund to help fund the general welfare under our form of Capitalism?

Capitalism, what is That sayeth the Right Wing every time it comes up.
An investment fund wouldn't be nearly big enough to even touch the welfare you want. There's just not enough money to give everyone a guaranteed $5/hr subsidy for smoking pot in Mom's basement. I've given you the numbers on this, it's not my problem you don't know how numbers work.
 
Why not create opportunities for people to earn monies vs. be given monies?
In an at-will employment State? Right wingers complain about our general welfare clause being too general.
At will also means one can leave at any time to earn more vs. stuck.
Yes, so right wingers should not complain about taxes, just get a better job.
So, Daniel, how much of our income ARE you entitled to take? Give a number. Break it down for us. How much are you entitled to take for weed? How much to fix up Mom's basement? How much for pizza delivery? We need to know how much you're legally and morally entitled to take.

Won't answer. Runs away.
 
YOU KEEP USING THE WORD “LIBERAL:” it doesn’t mean what you think it means.
If you think “liberal” and all the variations of “left” mean the same thing, let this be your wakeup call.
Many things described as “liberal” today mean the opposite of what was historically true and what many people expect, and this disconnect is likely contributing to some of heightened frustration we’re seeing in political arguments in 2020.
Be careful when using the word “liberal” if you care about clear language. Starting in roughly 2013, “liberal” veered sharply from its roots.
The date when the L-word starting become bastardized by “progressives” is off by about 90 years or so, but other than that, spot-on.

I have seen maybe 1 leftist answer truthfully when pressed to be specific on just how much is a "fair share". The answer is always, "more", or in Daniel's case, crickets.

Bingo! Thank you
 
Which was?
Our welfare clause is General and must cover any given contingency in a top down manner.

For comparison and contrast, there is no general warfare clause for right wingers to justify anything they want for the "common defense".

That is factually false
General Welfare is a Country that protects it's borders,
Provides general Govt services like Police and fire depts. and travel accessible paths for Fire and police to move on.,
A court system to settle disputes.
You want General Welfare to Morph into specific welfare -

I have never even heard Lunatics Like Sanders promote the idea that every contingency must be covered.
Factually false about what? We have protected borders. General welfare is just that. We have a common defense clause for "national security".

You simply like to make stuff up. This is not Parler. Our welfare clause is General not common or limited in any way and must cover any given contingency in a top down manner.

You keep saying top down
Is that the same as - from each according to their ability to each according to their needs?
 
No you didn't.

Let's ask the right wing. They seem to think we have a general warfare clause yet insist on tax cut economics. How important are our alleged wars on crime, drugs, and terror?

In consideration of the monstrous sacrifice of life and property that each war demands of the people, personal enrichment due to a war must be regarded as a crime against the nation. Therefore, we demand ruthless confiscation of all war profits.

I agree to disagree. Solving simple poverty means more people circulating capital and paying more taxes. The Poor should have the opportunity to pay their share of the tax burden.
 
No you didn't.

Until you answer me we have nothing to discuss. Troll.

Nobody is making you work in our at-will employment States. And, you simply are not making enough if taxes bother you. Simply improve your lot and get a better job; it is not just the Poor can benefit from that.

When did I say they "bother me"? Again, answer my question.

No. In this case, general means organized from the top down, concerned or dealing with universal rather than particular aspects.

Raising the minimum wage means people paying more taxes; your individual tax rate would not need to be as high as it is now. Solving simple poverty also means more people paying taxes. I expect our individual taxes to go down.
 
It’s an immigrant’s story, with a message every American should hear.

As a native of Eastern Europe, Victoria Spartz has seen life under socialism up close and knows the damage it can do.

As a newly elected American congresswoman, she’s in a position to stop it from destroying the United States.


Spartz was the underdog winner of a race in Indiana’s 5th Congressional District to replace the retiring Rep. Susan Brooks.

And in an interview Monday morning on Fox News’ “Fox & Friends,” the Ukraine native explained why she got into politics in her adopted country.


BJ's Pull Quote


“I grew up in a socialistic country,” Spartz told co-host Ainsley Earhardt.

“I grew up in socialism. I saw what happens when it runs out of money, and it’s not pretty.”
Ayn Rand said the same kinda stuff and wrote books about it but died living on social security.
