No, capitalism doesn't bailout, it lets the weak die and the strong survive. We did not do that in 2008 into 2009, we decided to bailout the weak under the erroneous guise of too big to fail.
So we aren't a capitalist system?
Nice to see you still call people names, that worked well for me in 2nd grade as well.
A. It would be nice if you felt the same about the name calling coming from your buddies
B. It wasn't meant as an epithet but rather as a descriptor of your lack of "power" regarding what you would choose to do...
Not when this decision was made, capitalism had ran it course, the auto companies and the banks had made bad business decisions and should have and would have failed without intervention. All we did was give large companies the power to make bad decisions and not face consequences that a small business would face, which would be survive or die. We set a precedent that will haunt us in the upcoming recession.

That's not the first bailout and it won't be the last.
That's how OUR capitalist system works (as opposed to some fantasy in your mind)
And THAT was what was meant by "internalizing the profits and externalizing the losses"
in this case it does since it is merely "wealth redistribution on a national basis."isn't right wing fantasy wonderful, in a vacuum of special pleading.Trillions in tax cuts for billionaires is the ultimate form of socialism. Talk about “free stuff“. To be able to use the infrastructure of an entire country and just rape money from that country. It’s so anti-American and such a disgrace.
Unfortunately, this is who the Republican Party has become.
Haha...this is the greatest shit ever....
LefTard Logic:
“TAKING / STEALING less of someone’s own shit is SOCIALISM.”
Haha...you dumb, pathetic lowlifes are fucking fascinating.
U.S. National Debt Clock : Real Time
Debt has nothing to do with self funded folks and everything to do with the piece of shits among us. You know this...right?
Government is literally socialism in action.You need to look up the definition of socialismSocialism is taxpayer funds being used collectively to benefit society as a whole, despite income, contribution, or ability.
Sounds horrible, huh?
Well I hate to be the one to tell you, but Socialism, which you have been told to fear all your life, is responsible for all this...
1. The Military/Defense - The United States military is the largest and most funded socialist program in the world. It operates thanks to our taxpayer dollars and protects the country as a whole. From the richest citizens to the homeless who sleep under the bridge. We are all protected by our military whether we pay taxes or not. This is complete socialism.
2. Highways/Roads - Those roads and highways you drive on every single day are completely taxpayer funded. Your tax dollars are used to maintain, expand, and preserve our highways and roads for every one's use. President Eisenhower was inspired by Germany's autobahn and implemented the idea right here in America. That's right, a republican president created our taxpayer funded, national highway system. This was a different time, before the republican party came down with a vicious case of rabies that never went away.
3. Public Libraries - Yes. That place where you go to check out books from conservative authors telling you how horrible socialism is, is in fact socialism. Libraries are taxpayer funded. You pay a few bucks to get a library card and you can read books for free for the rest of your life.
4. Police - Ever had a situation where you had to call the police? Then you have used a taxpayer funded socialist program. Anyone can call the police whether they pay taxes or not. They are there to protect and serve the community, not individuals. This is complete socialism on a state level, but still socialism all the same. Would you rather have to swipe your credit card before the police will help you?
5. Fire Dept. - Hopefully you have never had a fire in your home. But if you have, you probably called your local taxpayer-funded fire department to put the fire out. Like police, this is state socialism. You tax dollars are used to rescue your entire community in case of a fire. It use to be set up where you would pay a fee every month to the fire dept. for their service. If you didn't pay, they let your house burn down. Sadly, a man from Tennessee had this exact situation happen to him in 2011 because he didn't pay his $75.00 fee. I guess that small town in Tennessee would rather let people's houses burn down that resort to evil socialism. So don't take for granted the fact that you have a 24/7 fire dept. to put out your burning home thanks to socialism.

What the hell is wrong with a little socialism? We live with it. It's all around us. It has made our lives better. It's called Democratic Socialism.

Because Capitalism pays for Socialism.
How do Norway and Sweden pay for their socialist programs?
At the end of the day ALL COUNTRIES must have a certain level of protection and infrastructure, which many-a-leftists declare as socialism. That includes police, fire, military. And ICE, which the left dislikes because they were instructed to do so by rock dumb politicians.
Someone has to build/maintain roads and such, leftists call it socialism. Someone must administer rules and regulations, which leftists declare is socialism. Shit dumb dumbs, if you really want to pull this BS out of your collective asses, then all positions Mayor, congress, POTUS etc. is "socialism".
Without knowing it you people promote free MF shit on the taxpayer's dime, which at the end of the day is on the middle class dime, forcing inflation on the middle class and poor. Then you complain about deficits, SMH at your BS.
You give people free shit they'll sit on their asses while doping up, all the while demanding more shit. I agree we take care of children, elderly and disabled when necessary, but your methods INCREASE the likelihood of disability, both physical and mental, and dependence. Then you guys complain about medical costs, all the while promoting free healthcare for people who aren't even citizens.
Your practices induce laziness, dependence, costs, and the result is a rapid dumbing down while raping U.S. citizens of everything that made this country great. Look the fuck around you, most people are fat and/or crippled. Prior generations look upon us with shame, as they should because we're a spectacle. Your methods suck, plain and simple.
It is worth noting that the federal law that requires hospital emergency rooms to treat those who can not pay was signed by President Ronald Reagan.
Neat, and a nice gesture. Times change, that was near 40 years ago. In those days immigration benefited the USA, and we had the room. Today we're over-run by illegals and immigrants, and leftist positions demonstrate the desire for many many more.
just whining because you have no valid rebuttal and have to resort to appeals to authority instead of reason.appealing to authority is a fallacy, sorry. you need to be able to reason and discover self-evident truths, yourself.You are the troll, troll. You need a valid refutation not simple rejection Because You feel like it. You need a superior argument for that.Government is what governs the social order of any society.
Fuck you troll. Find a definition that backs up your idiotic statement.
You can't find that definition, can you? Sorry.
It's not about authority, fuckface. If you're making up your own definitions, you're just sitting in the corner jerking of. Enjoy yourself.
It's the only way they can try to paint Dems negativelySonny you are one mixed up guy. There is a diff between socialist and Commie goals. You should look a little closer.Socialism is taxpayer funds being used collectively to benefit society as a whole, despite income, contribution, or ability.

Fuck you troll. Find a definition that backs up your idiotic statement.
He asked you for a definition that supports you argument and you failed to supply it. So at this point you have no argument just your opinion backed by no facts.

The same way Finland does, oh wait............Finland is going broke, aren't they? LMOA

If socialism is all around us and working so well, then why do people like Sanders and OAC feel the need to radically change the US? ... why? because their version of socialism will much more intrusive and oppressive. They hide behind words like Democratic Socialism.
After his speech, Sanders told CNN’s Anderson Cooper, that real change is generated by mass movements. He cited the civil rights movement, the women’s movement, the gay movement and the labor movement.
“It is time for the American people to stand up and fight for their right to freedom, human dignity and security,” Sanders affirmed. “This is the core of what my politics is all about.” He clarified, “the only way we achieve these goals is through a political revolution.”
So here you see Sanders thinks we need a political revolution. A revolution to what exactly? You see people resist the shift towards socialism because a socialist form of government, puts more power into the hands of politicians.It's the tendency of every government to control their populations because it make it so much easier for the ruling class. Dont think Progressives will stop with a benign form of socialism. The key is in the word progressive. Things will always be screwed up in any large society and given their way, the progressive socialists will incrementally tighten the screws of control on their population.... oh all in the name of the betterment of society, in the way they see it.
I don't think people are worried about Democratic socialism, rather they are more concerned about the true intentions of these powerful people in Washington.
Libertarians should relocate to Somalia.I hate the fact these socialists are around, should relocate to Venezuela.
