[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Again, you are not well educated on this topic, you should stop posting: How many millions starved to death under Stalin? 3 -5 million during the Holodomor? How many millions starved to death during Mao's great leap forward? 30-40 million? How many people are dying in North Korea? These are not socialist countries. Stalin and Mao were COMMUNISTS. Kim is a dictator. His country isn't a functioning anything. Not capitalist, not socialist, no even really communist, it is chaos. This is what happens when you have dictators instead of democracy. Ahem.[/quote] Clearly a Bernie Sanders supporter. What’s the different between socialism and democratic socialism?…….Nothing.[/quote] Um, everything. At their very core. Democratic socialism doesn't actually seek government-owned enterprises, rather to retain private ownership but tax/subsidize the hell out of them to achieve policy goals. If you don't understand this very basic, 101 thing, maybe you should sit out the rest of the discussion as it's obviously over your head. [/quote] You’re living in a govt controlled fantasyland. If you’re going to tax/subsidize and overregulate the hell of them like Democrats do, the incentive to start businesses, invest, innovate, etc will decrease significantly. Poof….lots of taxpaying jobs that could have been never happen. Please try to understand basic 101 economic theory as well as the history of the world. Start with what occurred with Sweden’s economy when they deregulated their economy, lowered taxes, passed business friendly laws, etc. [/quote] Toots, I suspect the difference between us (besides my superior intellect compared to yours) is that I have ACTUALLY HAVE LIVED in countries like this (New Zealand, Sweden, Germany). And you couldn't be more wrong. Most Democratic Socialist countries are highly entrepreneurial. Mainly because workers aren't tied to jobs because they need health insurance. [/quote] Sorry go re-educate yourself and revisit those countries. I’ve lived abroad in Europe as well. All those countries you listed have capitalist economies. Please try to keep up. You’re embarrassing yourself. [/quote] More stupidity. I mean, did you go to Trump University or something? Democratic Socialism HAVE CAPITALIST ECONOMIES, YOU MORONIC DUMBASS. THAT IS THE POINT. I realize RWNJs are programmed to be afraid of everything, but you really have glommed onto that "s" word, haven't you? [/quote] Wow…triggered much? If “democratic socialism have capitalist economies” then it’s not socialist economy. It’s a capitalist economy. Man you are a dumb liberal. Not really surprising. [/quote] BY GOD YOU'VE FINALLY GOD IT... "Democratic Socialists" favor capitalism. So why are you conflating them with being in favor of "communism" or authoritarianism? Let me guess, you think the USA is special because "freedom," amrite? [/quote]
