Why is Socialism so popular all of a sudden

Socialism is always sold to the gullible on someone else is going to take care of you. The rich will do it. If you tax that guy driving the Mercede's more you can both have a Yugo. Yet both of you end up walking. Not the government guy though he has the limo. You can get your food paid for if the other guy just didn't eat steak and lobster and you both had hamburgers on his dime. Yet you both end up trying to scrounge something out of a trash pile to eat. Meanwhile the government guy is having lavish feasts.

We saw this in Venezuela over the last ten years. Germany, China, Italy before that. Why are you people so fucking stupid? The richest woman in Venezuela today? Chavez's daughter. Obviously because she provided a service nobody could live without. Kinda like Sanders owning three homes.
Corporate welfare in the US, is alive and well.
I'm all for ending that. But here's the thing the left will never let happen. You'll actually have to pay market price for your goods. We can't have that they say because the poor will pay the price. Of course they will. Along with everyone else until it balances out. Once it does we will all be better off.
Why didn't that work, before 1929?

Only thing worse than corporate welfare is welfare in general
only because the Poor are not capitally Worth it, to the right wing.

Give us an example of “corporate welfare” Danny.
I prefer an example of State Capitalism; how far into Space would the private sector be, without government spending on a Space Race.

No one should be forced to pay for other peoples shit...
That is why welfare in general is morally wrong

where do you get Your morals from?

we have a General Welfare clause.
 
... or, maybe there would just be a lot of people satisfied and happy if we moved Left somewhat on the spectrum. A stronger safety net and some insurance against a social/cultural revolution brought on by increasing wealth disparities.

Maybe the hypersensitive, hyperbolic, hysterical drama queening is a bit much, but that's where we are as a culture right now.

We don't have a safety net, because a safety net catches things that are falling. We have a trawler net that scoops up the crap from the bottom, confines it in the net, and most often benefits the person at the other end of the line.

with a fifteen dollar an hour minimum wage and unemployment compensation for merely being unemployed, capital will still circulate, regardless, ensuring capital liquidity, in our capital based institution of money based markets under our form of capitalism.
