One day the economy will get much worse and only socialism will save it

[Sun Devil 92]

How will republican policy address automation replacing human jobs?

How will republican policy address wages becoming more and more behind on the rising cost of living nationwide?

How will republican policy address rising drug prices and high deductible health insurance plans?

How will republican policy mitigate problems like drought and other natural disasters that are only getting worse because of climate change?

How will republican policy fix our crumbling infrastructure?

Only socialist policy can improve all of these things.

Wow dude.....

You've hit rock bottom.

People seems to be doing quite well these days.

The poor have more than a solid middle class family of 50 years ago.

Are you not getting enough to eat ?

 

[Billy000]

May-be you should defect to a socialist Country and give it a whirl. Let me know how all the free shit works out.

Norway and Denmark are awfully tempting.

I don't know WHERE you fucking knuckleheads get the idea those Countries are socialist.

They are NOT. They are about as far away from socialist as it gets.

For one thing, Norway is known as The KINGDOM of Norway and is a Parliamentary Constitutional Monarchy.

Denmark is a Constitutional Monarchy. They have a King.

Both are Welfare States. And that's okay with me. If they want to commit social suicide, I'm down with that

But they are NOT socialist. Not even close

You people are too stupid to have a rational discussion with.

Here’s what you aren’t getting about the basic definition of socialism: it’s any institution funded and owned by the people. Therefore, EVERY government is socialist.

What do you think about the assertion that Scandinavia isn’t socialist, bripat9643 ?

 

[Sun Devil 92]

Socialist policy is never the answer.

Social security was a bad idea?

Well, yes, it's an unsustainable ponzi scheme. The government is currently in debt up to its eyeballs, one would have to be part of the Church of the Omnipotent State to believe that it's capable of saving one's money for them.

Putting aside socialism for a moment, how would republican policy address the issues I arose?

They wouldn't, the Republicans want what the Democrats want. The only difference which they pretend exists is that Democrats hate it when a Republican does it, and the Republicans hate when a Democrat does it. Of course, neither have policies which work, because their end goal is the same as yours.

I can, however, tell you what would actually solve all of the problems you listed.

How will republican policy address automation replacing human jobs?

Automation can never replace "human jobs", because people will always have to program, innovate, build, and service the machines. If there's a demand for it, the private sector will fulfill that demand, and if there isn't a demand, it doesn't need to exist.

How will republican policy address wages becoming more and more behind on the rising cost of living nationwide?

People get paid what their performance and position is worth, otherwise they work for someone else. The government is not, and has never been necessary to determine wages. One has to be completely delusional to believe that random people are qualified for determining demand and cost simply because they're part of the government. People who support a federal minimum wage are part of the Church of the Omnipotent State.

How will republican policy address rising drug prices and high deductible health insurance plans?

If the government had not interfered in the market in the first place, neither would be a problem. The government created both problems with regulations and patents. Because of the government, before Obama destroyed the already-too-heavily-regulated healthcare industry, the Healthcare providers were limited to specific areas, limiting competition, allowing them to raise costs, as few to no other options were available.

As for medicine costs, the businesses already have to pay colossal amounts and go through a long process to get their medicine onto the market in the first place, and patents make this even worse, as it limits competition. If it weren't for the government, there may have been cures for cancer and AIDs by now, and far fewer people would have died of curable illnesses.

How will republican policy mitigate problems like drought and other natural disasters that are only getting worse because of climate change?

If Climate Change existed, policies claiming to solve it wouldn't be getting rammed down our throats, and data wouldn't be falsified. Scientists also would be open to debating the topic, rather than claiming there's no point in debating and that people who disagree should be thrown in jail. The fact that anyone believes it's an actual issue is absolutely sad.

There's already insurance for natural disasters, and it would be far better if the government wasn't regulating it.

How will republican policy fix our crumbling infrastructure?

Only socialist policy can improve all of these things.

You'll notice that private industry builds better roads when the government isn't involved. If they want customers, they'll build roads to their place of business. The government is not required, as there's a demand for roads.

If there's a demand for something, the private industry takes care of it. If there isn't, it is not needed. This is the nature of capitalism, and government interference only impedes progress.

If you'd leave the Church of the Omnipotent State, you'd stop believing that they're the only people who can do everything, and realize that they are not omnipresent, omnipotent, omniscient. With a lack of incentive, a lack of knowledge, and a lack of resources, the state is actually the LEAST qualified entity for everything you believe it's capable of. Any money it has, it steals, anything it buys, it pays too much for and either gets too much or too little, as it can't accurately measure demand, and anything it builds, is mediocre at best.

Your faith in the state is horribly misplaced.

Lol okay so basically you’re saying you have full confidence these problems will sort themselves out naturally in a completely deregulated market? That’s it? That’s your simple solution to a complex problem?

It is very simple.

The thing you need to understand is that government is what makes it work for the rich.

Get them out of things and competition will take care of the rest.

LOL...I'm waiting to hear how socialism is going to fix those things, Billy! For some reason you're convinced that's a given...so please share with us how it's all going to work in your socialist paradise!

No. Let's not put aside socialism for a moment. How would socialism address the issues raised? Obviously, you (a socialist?) think that republicans have no answers. I want to know what the socialist solutions would be to the problems raised?

FREE SHIT!!!

Of course, but who pays for the free shit, and for how long?

Please explain to me how they own it.

They own it through the government.

Now that just makes a whole lot of sense.

Socialism could mean a system with programs funded by the people but entirely owned by the government, or in a social democratic system, the people fund it, but the programs are designed to provide basic services to the people such as healthcare and education. Every nation therefore has some extent of socialism including the US.
