Will The Democrats Finally Admit They Are a Socialist Party?

[idb]

If socialism, (whatever that is) is done at a the local level is it still socialism or does the program have to be at the federal level for it to be labeled socialism?

Paying for a fire service is not socialism.

Huh?

When will you admit that some socialist polices are the main stay of civilization??? We wouldn't have civilization without them.

I don't admit it because it's simply not true. There is nothing that government does that the private sector can't do better and cheaper.

How about the military?

Stated in the Constitution already. That is a federal matter...Common Defense.

The Constitution mandates Socialism?

Neither is the Democratic Party.

The Constitution mandates Socialism?

Socialism is controlling the means of production...government interferring in the activity of private business.....providing a fire service or military protection is not socialism, and is already defined in our Constitution.

Ya think?
They could be contracted out...you know...Free Market.
You said so yourself.
That means they are 'controlling the means of production' when the work could be done privately...isn't that Socialism?
Therefore The Constitution is clearly a Socialist manifesto.

Also the constitution gives the federal government the power of taxation. Every single president all the way back to washington invested in infrastructure and the economy. The loserterians live in a dream world of their choosing.

Sorry, the Constitution puts strict limits on the powers of the federal government and how it interferes in an economy, so no, it isn't a socialist document. The federal government has no control over the means of production or the distribution of goods and services.

Socialism Definition of socialism by Merriam-Webster

Roman republic/empires, Ancient greece, Babylon, Eygpt, China all the way to modern times had taxed their citizens to maintain infrastructure and had public services. What you're fighting for is something that goes against 8,000 years of human history.

 

[rdean]

It's kind of hard to get offended by the label anymore when you've got thousands of enthusiastic Democrats lining up to hear Bernie Sanders' populist Scandinavian style welfare state plan for our nation. The man is, after all, the only self admitted Socialist elected to the U.S. Senate and he is edging closer and closer to toppling Hillary each day.

Will the GOP finally admit they are a party of clowns and liars?

One party is.

The other party isn't.

Which is which?

I don't think that it will make a difference.

Americans want a free lunch, something for nothing.


They want a candidate who will insure them, feed them, clothe them , quench their
thirst, free education, and who will invade the country du jour.


In a nutshell, he/she who is not a threat to the welfare/warfare police state

Not sure who you are talking to ......no one is against taxes, we are against taxes that go to any purpose that is not listed specifically in the Constitution....those given to the Federal Government are few and well defined, and those to the states are undefined and very broad.......

You are trying to make us into something we aren't. That would serve your purposes, but it is a lie.....

Wrong tense.

Try: "Sorry, the Constitution USED TO put.....".

Remember, the document was shredded and smoked for its hemp content in mid-January, 2009.

It doesn't allow control of individual businesses does it....nor the control over what is made, sold or bought by individuals...until obamacare. Keep trying to lie about the Constitution....it won't work.

And before the lefties can distort and lie, here is the Constitution...and exactly what the Federal Government is allowed to do.....not one point says they can control individual businesses...

2 a : a system of society or group living in which there is no private property

b : a system or condition of society in which the means of production are owned and controlled by the state

3: a stage of society in Marxist theory transitional between capitalism and communism and distinguished by unequal distribution of goods and pay according to work done

See socialism defined for kids

Not one point is in the Constitution......so no...it is not a socialist document.

But...what if it's competing against businesses?
Isn't that the same thing?
You know, building and operating roads, running a military...all things that could be done privately...you said so yourself.
That's pretty socialist isn't it?
