This is how socialism always ends...repression, violence, death, starvation, riots

Kosher, you mean like Sweden, Norway, Finland, Netherlands, etc you may be looking in the wrong direction. Look to the South in America, there you'd see republican ruled democracy leads to early death. Wake up girl, these third world nations aren't socialism, they autocracies, plutocracy, or some dictatorships, and actually they lack social and political structure. You righties are so easily played, no wonder Trump is your fearless leader.

I see you included Sweden, the rape capital of the world.

Sweden is about to lose their sovereignty due to PC politicians letting Muslims into the country, even returning ISIS fighters come and go as they please.

It will implode within a few years.

You obviously have never been to Sweden... It is extremely well run country... They have top class social programs which mind all there citizens, they have a policy of trying to make everyone contributors to society... I have been out in the worst places in Stockholm at three o'clock in the morning and never felt safer... There murder rate is less than a quarter of US... Nice people too...

Funny, all of those countries claim they are market based, lol. You are the only one calling them socialist; in fact, they would lambast you if you were in their country.

Why are these countries turning away from your glorious ideas, lol? BECAUSE THEY DON'T WORK, hehehehehehehehehehehe. You and your friends are the only ones thinking they actually do work.

This tells me you are either a subversive, or you are a wet behind the ears youngun. In either case, you need to grow a little before you come to a conclusion. And if by some case you are an old socialist fool.......kinda like Bernie.........then we need to ask why you and BERNIE, didn't move to utopia known as the USSR? And since it was EXACTLY what you profess, why it collapsed!

ALL of you people are phony! Do you know how we know this? Because the only way you even have a voice, is demand that government STEALS from one person, so you can give it to another. Nobody GIVES MORE of their own free will, now do they? Do you?!?!?!?!?! Of course not, all you do is demand, lol. Phony, FU***** baloney. It takes a whole lot to demand stuff from other people, lol!

I got a challenge for YOU! Look up how much EXTRA VOLUNTARY tax Americans pay into the system; meaning tax they pay EXTRA on purpose, hehehehehehehehe. So where are all the rich LEFTIES paying extra in, since it is such a good idea? PHONY BALONEY! You people just want to point, not actually pay; just make others pay, and when they balk, you claim they are racist! No they aren't, they are JUST LIKE YOU! The only difference is----->we aren't demanding YOU pay more, we are suggesting we all pay less.

You are a PHONY, admit it, or you would paying extra, now wouldn't you-) In fact, I bet you are one of the TAKERS! A person who gets back far more than they put in, you PHONY!

Where is there country utopia of no socialism? It was not America, it has been a social democracy for over a century...

2 years ago for 6 months.... I still talk with them as well. There is no increase in crime in Sweden and they have crime rates America could only dream about.. Sweden are far better at managing crime than the US and the figures don't lie on that...

You have to get proper knowledge, Sweden are a clear example how to run a country... Not perfect but very well run country...

As some who has lived all over the world the method of Government proposed by the righties here will descend US to being like south Africa... They have no social net, College is effectively private and Healthcare is a mess unless private... You have a percentage of the population who are doing alright and huge mass doing very badly, crime is very high and gun crime is through the roof.

Problem is the righties can't show us a country which does have socialism and is successful... Just show us one country of a descent size which has no socialism... The top 30 have all got a good deal of social programs and effectively are social democracies...

What nonsense, and totally irrelevant. Try to stick to the topic we're talking about.

I didn't say "every country with socialist programs ends in violence, despair and starvation".

Maybe you should re-read the op. Try to stick to it. You can do it!

"... few actually actively seek to move to Scandinavia, for obvious reasons: the weather is appalling, the taxes are the highest in the world, the cost of living is similarly ridiculous, the languages are impenetrable, the food is (still) awful for the most part and, increasingly, these countries are making it very clear they would prefer foreigners to stay away.

"What are some of the biggest misconceptions that you find in how the rest of the world understands the Nordic countries?

"Again, I think we've all been guilty of projecting some kind of utopian fantasy on them. The Nordic countries are, for example, depicted as paragons of political correctness, yet you still see racial stereotypes in the media here — the kind of thing which would be unthinkable in the U.S. Meanwhile, though it is true that these are the most gender-equal societies in the world, they also record the highest rates of violence towards women — only part of which can be explained by high levels of reporting of crime.

"Denmark, meanwhile, promotes itself as a "green pioneer" and finger wags at the world about CO2 emissions, and yet it regularly beats the U.S. and virtually every other country on earth in terms of its per capita ecological footprint. For all their wind turbines, the Danes still burn a lot of coal and drive a lot of cars, their country is home to the world’s largest shipping company (Mærsk), and the region’s largest air hub.

"Sweden is supposedly "neutral" (it’s not, and has not been for decades), yet since the days when it sold iron ore to Hitler, its economy has always benefited from its arms industry, which is one of the world’s largest.

"The Norwegians have fallen prey to precisely the same kind of problems as other oil-rich states: their economy depends far too much on one industry (oil), they’ve taken their foot off the gas in terms of their work ethic, and now all young Norwegians want to do is be "something in the media" or open a cupcake place."

Denmark isn't the utopian fantasy it is made out to be - here's why

"The Scandinavian countries are regularly praised for their income equality,quality of life, gender equality, maternal care and many other traits, not just by leftist politicians and activists, but also by left-leaning economists like Paul Krugman. The Scandinavian model, they believe, is the ultimate proof that you can combine a high-growth economy with a generous welfare state.
"The problem is that much of the praise is wrong."

"...despite what many in the American left who idealizes Scandinavia might wish, the success was not achieved thanks to the welfare state model, but perhaps despite its existence.

"Scandinavia’s success came before the welfare state, not after it. Between 1936 and 2008, when much of the welfare expansion occurred, Sweden’s growth rate dropped to being the 13th highest out of 28 industrialized countries.

"During the decades before, between 1870 and 1936, Sweden had enjoyed the highest economic growth in the entire industrialized world. Moreover, in the most intense period of “third-way” policies of market socialism, between the 1970s and 1990s, Sweden’s economic performance was exceptionally low. This period, however, was an exception: for most of its modern history, Sweden has been anything but a socialist mecca."

Excellent summary.

I'm putting you onto my VIP list (following) now.

 

[yiostheoy]

So called democratic socialism has worked well in Germany, Switzerland, and Israel however.

So you cannot blame the economic system.

You must blame the people there themselves.

I'm not convinced it's worked all that great in those countries.

I have lived there and they seem to be happy with it.

I think Oregone is going to your head.

You need to get out of Oregone more.

Government has played apart in civilization for the past 10,000 years...Idiot, you're talking about leninism dictatorships that destroy their private sectors, destroy personal rights and silence any voice that speaks out...Sounds closer to loserterianism to me.

Of course the rogue media branch of government isn't going to devote much ink to it, because they are the defenders and promoters of not only socialism, but marxism as well.

The family demanded a proof of life video, after the Venzuelan opposition leader, Leopoldo Lopez, was severely beaten for refusing to issue a statement begging protesters to stop protesting. In case you live under a rock, Venezuela has been destroyed by socialism and now the people are protesting and starving in the streets, following government seizure of resources and food.

The proof of life video does not show Lopez. It shows a really muscular young dude. Lopez was beaten severely after he refused to speak, and was suffering abdominal injuries.
