It's democratic socialism! That means we all democratically elect a leader from the two communist candidates the state chooses for us. And we all have an equal vote in the workforce, unless we decide to nationalize your industry, in which case you belong to the government now and you'll do what we tell you or you'll end up in northern alaska with the other political dissidents and white cis men.

It really depends on the people and their culture.
It worked in Germany.
It worked in Sweden before the mass immigration.

We don't have to actually explain the details about how we're going to pay for all our utopian welfare programs, we can just handwave and say something about "the corporate class" and "millionaires and billionaires," those occupy hippies and bernie bros eat that shit up.

I just think that history has proven that such large scale programs to completely alter the social and economic fabric of a nation has always backfired and leads to economic ruin, internal strife, and a worse lot for the very people you were proposing to help.
Exactly! The government is the one who poses a threat to my rights. Which is why I'm wary of giving it control over the markets; typically that level of control facilitates the rise of a leftist authoritarianism, as history has shown.

It's not democrat vs republican or socialist vs capitalist. It's poor vs rich and they rich don't want you to see that.

Absolutely no country has or ever can implement socialism correctly because socialism is inherently retarded.

I just think the endless name-calling and swearing is unproductive and boring. I'd much rather have a well reasoned conversation with someone than just spam dumb memes back and forth all day, as if that proves anyone right.

THIS. But American people are too stupid and ignorant to realize it.

The question is the problem you get what you are worth and if it is not enough it is your problem. The companies should be sued if they pollute and harm people instead of giving token fines to the government and continuing to pollute.

>right can't fight

How is that even remotely true?

I don't like bailouts, but socialism would be nationalizing those companies, not bailing them out to continue operating in the free market. You can't just call everything you like "socialism" and everything you don't like "capitalism."

That is why you elect a government that cares about the needs and wants of it's citizens.

No it doesn't, it makes people pay for everyone's well being without a choice.

Libertarian set-ups need people to care about others because without properly re-distributing funds, a lot of people cannot afford basic shit.

Again, it;'s not a static monolith. Politicians may not give care about your broke ass, but government works can and do. The only reason the Trump administration hasn't collapsed on itself is dedicated government employees.

wtf are you saying, we are no longer living in a free market society because of the bail outs that happened a decade ago?

Socialized medicine works incredibly well. I'm from Canada and I have never had a problem and have known quite a few people who's lives would have been ruined without socialized medicine.

Had someone close to me go for chemo, without OHIP it would have been like 40k, IIRC. Would have bankrupted us.

Anyway, some stupid amount of bankruptcy is caused by medical debt in the US. Something that literally blows my mind, medicine being for profit sounds incredibly offensive to me.

Well, I can see that carrying this any further is pointless, good evening.

No I'm not. I'm just saying they are ignorant as fuck. Hence, so many Republicans.

Forget the suits in washington, if we want to establish communication and mutual empathy, we have to start with each other. start with the people in our lives. none of us are going to be able to fix gridlock in washington but we can all make a pretty big difference in our day to day interactions.

Reminder: Yea Forums and imageboards in general are not a respectable place to discuss politics, you should not respect any political opinion expressed here, especially your own.

as a general rule if you haven't studied philosophy for at least 10 years, you have no real business in political deliberation.

Do you know what a bail out or free market is?

Are you just trying to throw out a nonsensical "I'm 14 and this is deep" sentence and hope someone thinks it means something?

I agree, that's not free market. Which is why I don't want either them or the government to set up a tyranny. I am concerned that the establishment of a socialist economy in the US would lead to the erosion of my rights. The socialists say they want to democratize the economy and move it out of the hands of the corporate elite, but I'm concerned that they're going to move it straight to the oval office and we'll have gone from a slightly imbalanced republic to a dictatorship of the proletariat.

But the wealth of the upper classes allow them to fund politicians and produce pro-capitalist propaganda. That is how the rich bend the government (and the gullible members of the lower classes) to their will. Money is power, and an increasing wealth gap causes a dangerous imbalance of power.

They cannot make anything illegal without the government .

I've read about healthcare for years, I'm just trying to be humble. If you think you can get a good enough grasp on it to have an informed opinion in two hours, then that tells me a lot about your other opinions, too.

Dude you're so fucking confused about the actual terminology and what each "ism" is about. Do yourself, and us a favor and at least go to wiki and lean what the hell is Socialism. It's not what you think it is. Do you know the biggest socialist experiment in the 20th century after the Soviet Union was the social security and New deal programs in America? Educate yourself dude. You think Socialism is red hats and armies marching like in Rambo movies. You're so fuckign dumb it's so CRINGE

It doesn't have to made illegal to be made impossible.

The one successful company? More like the entire successful economy. We're the greatest economy in the world thanks to capitalism.

Really? Then why dis?

>because of government mismanagement and interference

Can you explain it to me please?

A healthy workforce that is not tied to dead end employment can move their skills more readily about the markets to reinforce and grow the market. An educated workforce can bring innovations to the market to grow it.
If state and local colleges are made tuition free to permit people to acquire their associates and bachelors at low cost and then coupling this with an insurance plan that will be able to be used nationally and not restricted to a network with high deductibles, the growth in the US would explode within 5 years. The insurance companies will have a 4 year phase out period at which point they may provide supplemental insurance and larger colleges and universities will then become far more prosperous as they draw upon a larger portion of the population to fill their halls.

companies that piss off there customers get challenged in free markets.

I am not the one who thinks there are good politicians.

why doesn't it apply to the US?

Of course there has to be government regulation, but the fact that we have less government regulation has incentivized companies to build and trade here rather than in London or elsewhere. It's also spurred innovation and has lifted millions of Americans out of poverty.

Yes

That is the basis of socialism, have you ever read anything on the thing you like so musch.

I know that it isn't a general rule of thumb that more government involvement means more bloatedness in the market, I guess I was specifically referring to the skyrocketing premiums that were a result of the ACA. But again, I just think that healthcare such a complex subject that good cases can be made to support almost any platform.

Sorry, the blinding light of your ignorance isn't letting me click on all those sources you just provided.

How does socialism work with 22 trillion dollar US deficit

It mean's putting the group or society's need ahead of the individual. This means if necessary you will sacrifice yourself for the common good. That an authority will decide you need to be sacrificed , therefore authoritarian.

The US population values personal liberty, personal responsibility, and dislikes government hand-holding more than europeans. We're not so keen to surrender our freedoms in exchange for the government to babysit us.

Who said this is a competition? Are you 12? If you keep choosing to live in ignorance, and not pick up a single book in your life, or educate yourself before stating your opinion, you'll be the one mocked and ridiculed for your stupidity for the rest of your life, not me.

I have been paying for my employees health care for 40 years , every time a politician "helps" the premium goes up not down .

Have you started your own company because I would like to also but I don't have over $30,000 which is pretty much a minimum of what it would cost oh yeah and by the way if you do have a company are you hiring I could use a second job

Yes i have , it took more like $600,000 and i got a loan.

What freedoms are being surrendered? In a universal healthcare system, you could say you're surrendering your right to choose your health insurance provider, but for a growing number of Americans the choice doesn't exist, as they only have the funds for an inferior system.

When it comes to wealth based things, people are given the illusion of choice, the options exist, but many are only attainable for the rich. By implementing universal healthcare, instead of thinking it's bad because it's government run, consider it may be bad because in its current state, it's designed for the poor. If everyone was under the same system, the system would greatly improve.

This idea can be applied to a variety of socialist policies.

What is this book about? Does it state Socialsm is by definition "authoritarian"? I don't think you've understood what we're talking about.

You are saying that Socialsm is by definition authoritarian. What I'm asking you is to provide an academic source, (not some random picked book you haven't even read) that backs up your assertion.

Is that too difficult for your kind? To back up your Bullshit with academic sources?

sadly now we are not hiring , there is a slowdown in progress. i am afraid it will lead to rescission and soaring inflation .

In a capitalist society, poor people don't have many options. We think that's unfair, so we're going to make it so that nobody has any option.

Except Sanders does not. Sanders blames the last 30+ years while Biden does try to say "everything was fine until Trump."

You stupid fucks keep repeating this bullshit and don't even know what "precious freedoms" are those you're supposedly being ripped off. God you're so dumb.

40 years.

The US does not have a $22 trillion deficit, it has a $22 trillion debt with a deficit that was starting to go down again until Trump blew a $1 trillion hole into the deficit with his tax cut.

The US right wing doesn’t realize that they’re basically wage slaves with with little in the way of “liberty”. Also, they never take responsibility for their own bullshit. Always complaining about lazy blacks and scary Mexicans. Dumb rednecks can never admit to themselves that their corporate masters have them by the balls, and all of their “muh freedoms” talk is nothing but flatulence.

The biggest takeaways from these threads are

!) Most people in Yea Forums are 12 years old.

2) Most Americans have their definition of Socialism out of Fox News and 80s action films.

KEK Only true comment in the entire thread.

Russian trolls still at it.

When Obama left office the Deficit was below 3% GDP and it is now project to expand to between 5% and 7% GDP. As for why Obama's deficit haul was so large was the recession which was in full swing by the time he took office. Beginning under Obama the largest string of job growth began. Should Obama have done more? Yes, I believe he should have. The bankers that wrecked the economy are still not behind bars and many are now in the Trump administration (after his loud and vehement denouncements of them during his 2016 campaign) and they helped craft the tax cut that Trump's Republican-controlled congress that makes our tax cuts go away in just a few years (and be replaced with a tax hike) while theirs stay permanent.

“Socialist economies don’t work”, the experts say.

This is in contrast to capitalist economies, which are based on rock-solid principles like “every decade or so the whole thing collapses”

You do realize on a long enough timeline all governments fall.

At each comment, you only continue to underline your massive stupidity and ignorance. You do know Russia hasn't been a socialist, nor communist country since 1989 do you?

Socialism avoid this by being in a state of perpetual collapse

Russia can and would but they find it easiest to play to the lowest common denominator such as radical Republicans as well as Brexiteers and that neo-fascist group in Italy. Find a wedge issue/faction and drive into it. Minimal cost to shake things up like crazy.

Dude, Russia isn't even socialist. WTF are you talking about?

They'd sure like to see America collapse though, and a socialist uprising would work pretty well to destabilize the republic

Good job. You've learned!

They don't need any socialist uprising to destabilize "The Republic" They already did it by placing a billionaire in power. Or does America look "stable" to you now?

Really? Most of Europe, Taiwan, Singapore, Japan, South Korea, New Zealand, Australia, Canada, and Israel are in perpetual states of collapse? Because they all have socialized institutions like nationalized healthcare, robust infrastructure works, low-to-no cost universities and strong social safety nets for everyone while still operating within an open market system.

America will never be socialist. Never. There would be an uprising from the grass roots right. Period. We’d force the collapse even if it did, somehow happen.
