This photo captures the difference between socialists and freedom loving capitalists...

By the number of teachers in unions......

What do unions have to do with democrats controlling what is thought in school? LOL. You're insane.

They protect bad teachers, they support left wing politicians who push left wing crap onto public schools.....

Yes, better that they have a good, wholesome right wing education...

Knowledge-Based Education – We oppose the teaching of Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) (values clarification), critical thinking skills and similar programs that are simply a relabeling of Outcome-Based Education (OBE) (mastery learning) which focus on behavior modification and have the purpose of challenging the student’s fixed beliefs and undermining parental authority.

Yes, you read that right. The party opposes the teaching of “higher order thinking skills” because it believes the purpose is to challenge a student’s “fixed beliefs” and undermine “parental authority.”

It opposes, among other things, early childhood education, sex education, and multicultural education, but supports “school subjects with emphasis on the Judeo-Christian principles upon which America was founded.”

Texas GOP rejects critical thinking skills. Really. - The Washington Post

Wow...the Post...really? They are fair.....

So?
Are you denying the facts of the report?
I bet you didn't even look at it.

Yeah, I looked...it was silly and biased...

The only end game for capitalism is fascism. Destroy the competition then buy the voting process ensuring ownership of all significant markets and wealth.

fascism is a form of socialism, numskull. It's the end game of the welfare state.

The boxes the ones on the right are standing on were looted from the guy on the left.

Actually, the writing is wrong...that is socialism on the leftt...the one guy with the connections gets the benefits, so he does'nt care if the other kids can't see...on the right..the conservative, religious person helped those two kids see the game by acting on his own he gave up his box, and helped the other kid get the boxes he needed on his own, no government necessary............the guy in the right picture...works for hilary clinton.....

Hardly biased...it was quoted directly from the Texas Republican Party's own platform.
Are you saying that the Texas GOP were lying?

Fascism is socialism.......what you just described is socialism as the politicians control the means of production...

I only subscribe to the original definition of fascism as coined by Mussolini as Fascisimo. The word has been morphed too many times as everything from an anti jewish political force to a military strategy and then as an insult associated with Nazis.

Fascism is NOT socialism. It is a blending of political power with the choosing of a group of select manufacturers and services. What Bush and Cheney did with the no bid contracts associated with the invasion of Iraq was an example pure fascism. It had NOTHING to do with socialism.

What you just described is socialism. Under capitalism the government doesn't play favorites.

How can fascism be socialism?
They are on opposite sides of the political spectrum

Only if you're stupid.

Left-wing propaganda.

It was a clear and unvarnished quote directly from their own platform.
No explanation necessary.

Spin it away if you feel you can though.
It should be good for a chortle.

You assume there is an endgame.

That is asinine. You create a system to ENDURE - not to get somewhere. Capitalism might be a vehicle for innovation but it, in and of itself, is not something that is supposed to move into another system such as fascism.

As capitalism lends it's self to bonding with government as a mechanism to endure that is the genesis of fascism.

Wrong, capitalism doesn't lend itself to any such thing. Government, on the other hand, is rapacious and grows at the expense of capitalism and freedom.

You object to increasing government control, yet you favor socialism which is complete government control.

Yes you did...and you think that makes them look better?
You know what...I really think you do!

 

[bripat9643]

Yes, when we give lower classes jobs, that is THEM supporting US. When all their bills are paid with money we pay them. You people are just ridiculous

You think that you still own the money you pay your employees?

So what are you implying, that everything I earn belongs to the government?

That's pretty much the definition of "stupid."

 

[bripat9643]

We don't hate rich liberals, liberals hate other rich people, then try to use the government to take all of their stuff...and then call that "justice."

The above crap shouldn't go unchallenged.........I'd really like to know when and to whom the "government" took all of their stuff and then called that justice. Moronic right wingers throw this stuff out and convince other morons that its the truth.

So the government didn't take ALL of it yet? Well, I guess that makes it OK, right?

 

[LeftofLeft]

Here you go...this explains things pretty well.....

Unlike no other Country or Economy in the World, US provides more opportunity for more people to have a house like this. Liberals will site Income Inequality in the US is unlike no other in the World; yet so is immigration demand (both legal and non-legal means) is higher to come to the US. Why would demand be so high to come to a country that has high income inequality? Liberals want US to be more like many of the countries that don't provide such opportunity in exchange for reduction in income inequality??? I'd rather have the best opportunity and higher income inequality vs. receding into another economy that locks in a true 1%, eliminates a Middle Class, and does not provide opportunity for economic upward mobility.

 

[bripat9643]

Bear in mind that sociologists state that the "paragon of a capitalist" was.......the slave owner.

Sociologists are little more then professional indoctrinators. What they do isn't science, and they don't know the first thing about economics.

Why would anyone care about what they say?

 

[bripat9643]

A pure capitalist is the furthest thing from freedom loving.
Dirty air
Dirty water
Old or bad food
No regulations on the market place
No workers rights
Only the rich can own anything or drive on any roads.
Only the rich can get weather warnings
Only the rich can send their kids to school

Pure capitalism sucks. It is a cult full of idiots like the pure socialism bunch!!!!!

Social-democracy of regulations of the private and public sector is best!

Those are all socialist smears and only the gullible believe them.

Look at what corporations like Apple or many others are doing in China. Corporations need to be regulated or they will do exactly what I just said.

You're a native fool that is blind to reality if you can't accept what is right in front of your face.

Do you pay taxes for the road you drive on and for the regulations for the clean air, water and food you eat & drink?? If not then you're a bum.
