what so bad about socialism

[Rshermr]

I've seen and experienced great things in countries that are more geared to socialism. The happiest rated countries in the world are all highly socialistic countries. Why can't we do what we already know that works?

Sure, it works with an Amish commune but not so much in Greece in the EU

So, Greece is one of over 30 ode nations. Funny you should pick the crazy one to make a generalized point, eh??
There are over 30 advanced nations in the world in odec. All of the nations one would think of as "advanced". All are more socialized than the US. All have universal health care for all, though the citizens of the us pay more than any other of the other nations. And those that attempt to rate and rank happiness find that the people of the us are less happy than those of many of those nations.
No one I know suggests any country should go fully socialistic, that would be your standard knuckle-draggers straw horse. But personally, I want a private company making my TV, but my gov making my nat'l parks and running my health care.

They have influence, they don't have control. Your claim was wrong.

they could easily double prices or cut them in half which is control by any standard!! Sorry.

they could easily double prices

How?

The Democrat War on Poverty is a misnomer, it was the War on the black male head of household and its been devastatingly effective

yes, it led to 75% of black kids being born into broken or never formed homes. This is a positive to liberals since kllling love and family makes room for the libcommie nanny state.

or, more room for more paying customers, right, Person on the Right.

Are you posting from a mental ward?

Funny how a million bad things can happen, but as long as no one is a paying anymore, it's good.

Someone is ALWAYS paying for it.

It's an impossible question to answer unless and until we're all working from the same definition.

The "socialism" of Sweden is not the same as the "socialism" of Cuba, for instance. Bernie Sanders is referred to as a socialist but is more interested in a social democracy such as Sweden, which he has said.

Government ownership of industry and control of means of production and distribution exists on a continuum, a matter of degree. There are no absolutes.

Unfortunately, to date we're stuck in a worthless, binary "either/or" argument that never actually goes anywhere.

1) it does not go anywhere because the people vote for equal numbers of liberals and conservatives.

2) Sanders is a simple filthy communist and nothing more. Govt is far bigger than ever now and his only idea is to make it far bigger than ever still until its obviously communist even to blind libfools like you.

I made a reasonable, mature, rational point and you came along doing your standard shallow, simplistic Mark Levin imitation with your standard third grade playground personal insults and name-calling.

So yeah, I'm pretty comfy right where I am, but thanks for askin'.

There are a few people on both ends of the spectrum here with whom it's simply impossible to have a normal conversation.

I wish these people would just spew at each other, at least they speak each other's language, whatever the hell that is.

If they can easily double prices, why the need for more than one QE?
You must be confused.
