Thats because true socialism has never been tried.
Its always some closet capitilist shithead who lets his greed ruin it for everyone.
Wyatt Clark
THATS WHY SOCIALISM DOESNT FUCKING WORK RETARD
Charles Kelly
Was the fact you were totally proven wrong in the last thread not good enough for you?
Juan Ortiz
>real socialism has never been tried.
Soviet Union, Vietnam, China, Cuba, East Germany, Poland, France, Venezuela...
Charles Robinson
Ah, this shill retardation again.
Chase Lee
It has been tried and have failed literally every time. You need to stop the fantasy that you will never have to work.
Caleb Hernandez
You'd like to believe this.

Collapsed.

No longer communist.
>China
More capitalist than anywhere else now.
>Cuba
Going through market reforms.
>East Germany
Reunited with West Germany and is now very capitalist.
>Poland

>France
When was France ever commie? At best it was left leaning capitalist.
>Venezuela
How's that economic collapse going?
David Parker
Most people aren't actually arguing for literal socialism. Most people are arguing for more restrictions on capitalism and focusing tax spending on social programs. Politicians like Elizabeth Warren or even Bernie Sanders aren't actually economic socialists. It's really a tiny fraction that want, say, the government to take over currently private enterprises.
Cooper Turner
Your a dumb shit. What do you think taxes are?

Are all Captiallist systems where one guy got into the position to give himself most of the money.

>Most people aren't actually arguing for literal socialism.
Retarded college kids and their ilk are.
>Most people are arguing for more restrictions on capitalism and focusing tax spending on social programs.
Sounds like pic related.
>Politicians like Elizabeth Warren or even Bernie Sanders aren't actually economic socialists.
They're still retarded and economically illiterate.
>It's really a tiny fraction that want, say, the government to take over currently private enterprises.
A significant portion of the left.
Isaiah Parker
There are literally 2 of this exact same thread on the front page. Looks like the russian bots are at it again.
David Bell
>When was France ever commie? At best it was left leaning capitalist.
i think he means the paris commune, which was during war time and a little part of a city actually denounced by marx himself
Isaac Cook
are you a billionaire? because if not you're shooting yourself in the foot if you're libertarian or ancap
Sebastian Moore
Without taxes we would have no army
Without an army we would belong to russia or china.
Luis Hernandez
That's pretty funny then.
Evan Phillips

>what are mercenaries
>what are private contractors
Caleb Williams
ah yes, because genuine capitalism totally worked out too.
Josiah Rodriguez

It's reduced global poverty more than anything else in the history of mankind. And let's not forget the prosperity and technological advancement. Yeah, I'd say it's doing great.
Jeremiah Martin
i swear to god have any of you taxation is theft retards the tiniest bit of knowledge about social contract and economics beyond pragerU and other Koch-funded propagandists
Adam Foster
Tyler Lee
I would rather pay for the great healthcare my family receives than pay nothing for shit healthcare that everyone can have. Anything the government gets involved in cost 10x more than the private sector. Normal business failures result in loss of business or investors, but not the government. There is literally no incentive or reason for them to give a fuck
Luke Harris
>social contract
Where is this contract? Can I see it? When did I sign it?
>economics beyond pragerU and other Koch-funded propagandists
Oh no, it's retarded.
Ayden Martin
user, antitrust laws and government funded technorogy aren't capitalism
Logan Perez
enjoy the ancap utopia then, fuckwit
Ryder Taylor
>I would rather pay for the great healthcare my family receives than pay nothing for shit healthcare that everyone can have.
Someone who gets it!!

A smart person on Yea Forums? I thought I was the only one!

The fact you have to resort to such a hilarious strawman says it all, doesn't it?
Wyatt Cook
THIS IS WOMANKIND NOW BITCH
Austin Price
Lol, are you one of those "taxation is theft" dumbasses?
James Roberts
>Where is this contract? Can I see it? When did I sign it?
this just shows how little fucking knowledge you have on this, read up on economic and political theory before pretending to know something next time
Anthony Gomez
Juan Young
What's scarier is, for these reasons, the free market wont allow socialized medicine to exist. In order for these fags to pull this off they'd have to abolish private healthcare.
Christopher Cook
National Socialism seemed to work wondrously in Germany in the 30's. If the world hadn't declared war on Germany for getting themselves out from under the thumb of the Jew banks we would have all adopted their system and would be sitting pretty right about now.

Trump wants to "Make America Great Again!" and the best place to start is with the tax system we had in the erra he is talking about as when america was last great.
%70 to %90 tax on the %1.
Because as we have had proven to us a dozen times, when you give the rich a tax break it does not help the middle class.
However on the flip side were we to tax all income over $5,000,000 a year at a rate of %90 the CEO's would either A. give their work force a massive pay raise and also demand top quality work from them or B. pay a stupid ammount of taxes into the system to support their underpaid workforce.
Walmart is able to pay its workers chicken feed to the point where most of its workforce is on anti poverty systems. They do this so its top dogs can make more in a year then most of thier workforce would need in a lifetime. they do this because they can never stoping to think about if they should.
Im hoping the devide in the demorcatic party will lead to a fucking common sense party.
>support gun rights
>support bans on post birth, partial birth and late term abortions
>support unions
>support taxing the rich at a high enough rate
>does not touch gender identity issues with a 39 and 1/2 foot pole
>supports strong borders
>support voter ID requirements
If the republicans would stop sucking CEO cock and start working for the people who elected them they would sweep the elections.
If democrats stopped trying to murder babies and take everyones guns they would sweep elections.
Right now our choices are blowing our brains out because we voted republican life sucks but at least we still have guns.
Or commiting sudoku because we voted dems and our life sucks and our guns are gone.
Lucas Ortiz
Isn't that how it goes? To get "free shit" you must lie cheat and steal and abolish human rights.
Jeremiah Sullivan
>because marxism isn't political and economic theory which is still widely adopted in academia
Samuel Cox
neither neoliberal capitalism nor centrally planned communism are effective in the post-industrial context, nor even market oriented authoritarianism given the wave of democratisation since the 1970s
we live in the post industrial world and this stupid cold war debate about the two great ideologies is irrelevant and only retards continue to seriously engage it
even though AOC says she's a dem soc she's hardly advocating for a centrally planned economy so OPs point and the xhole meme is meaningless
Brandon Williams
Joseph Rogers
A bunch of ivory tower morons who have never had to deal with real life. Why should anyone take anything they have to say seriously?
Benjamin Lewis
What do you propose?
Matthew Cook
posadism
Samuel Brooks
And before the industrial revolution, every economy was agrarian based and the idea of basing your economy on something different was considered ridiculous.
Capitalism has been outgrown. A few morons will insist on living in the past, but-- much like the Amish-- they will become increasingly insignificant as time goes by.

Josiah Hill
I'd say it isn't working. Your public education has clearly failed to teach you what "socialism" is.
Levi Carter
Capitalists gave a prize to someone who thinks like they do. That's just a circle-jerk without a point.

There are five of these threads with the same copypasta. She must really scare this guy.

the people who say this are the ones who whined about the individual mandate - they didn't want to be responsible and get insurance, but if they get sick you bet your ass they'll go to the emergency room and use it as a "free" clinic.
Oliver Roberts
James Long
Do you understand the difference between left wing and social democrat? I'll give you a clue... Left wing is socialism/communism and social democrat is capitalism.
Hudson White
you sound like a freeloader

did you say that when they handed obama a nobel peace prize for the same reason?
Tyler Torres
you do realize the left wing is not just socialism and communism do you? any sane person counts social democracy as left of center
is american education this shit?
Luis Myers
>capitalism is now left wing when I like what it does
Austin Scott
Dont forget hitler was in the Nazi socialist party. The Nazi party took away guns from the public, then started rounding up jews and others and killing them. The common man had no way of fighting back because they had no guns, thus no power.
Socialism is a mistake because it concentrates too much power to the rich elites and government

Joshua Lopez
but one is based on prohibition and punishment, the other is based on inducement and reward, so the comparison is pretty weak
when you consider the pace of economic change, automation, the zero marginal cost economy, you're going to have to have structures to redirect energy into third sector work - be it caring, volunteering, engaging in art - that is valuable but not profitable in the conventional sense
the typically socialist response would be a jobs program but those are often ineffective, surely what yangs proposing would be a better way

That is the PERFECT description of EVERY socialist system that's ever existed. If you don't believe me you can ask
>Fidel Castro
>Che Guevara
>Joseph Stalin

>Ho Chi Minh
>Nicolás Maduro Moros
>Samora Machel
>Mao Zedong (Who established the world's largest slave colony.)
>Nikolay Matveyev
>Ion Gheorghe Maurer

And me. Yes, me! I used to be a Communist until I woke up and realized it's all an incredible lie designed to put small and petty men (and women) into positions of power where they can control your entire life.

Neither has capitalism, if we're being honest.
Jacob Myers
This image is misleading. Communism has been tried many times and it worked a lot of those times.
Worked, as in being a system for obtaining power. As shown by the fact that Mao, Stalin etc. held undisputed power for many years.
It worked perfectly.
