Please learn the difference between socialism and democratic socialists.  You’re embarrassing yourself.[/quote]

Walz admits he’s a socialist and had socialist values. We are not a socialist country. [/quote]

Yes, we are. You just call it Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, the GI Bill and pretty much everything the military receives in terms of housing, the ACA, minimum wage laws, maximum hours, child labor laws, subsidizing higher education/home ownership, FEMA, section 8 housing, subsidies for energy companies and agriculture. [/quote]

Military members receive a compensation and benefits package for their service. That’s not socialism.

That's true. But you don't think it's subsidized by the Federal government?!?!? Hahahahaha.

From the U.S. Army's website: "the Army provides allowances to offset the cost of living. These allowances are monies provided for specific needs, such as food or housing when the government does not provide for that specific need. Most allowances are not taxable, which is an additional imbedded benefit of military pay."

There's also a: Housing Allowance, Rental Ceilings, Utility/Maintenance Allowance, Move-In Allowance, Basic Allowance for Subsistence, Clothing Allowance, Family Separation Allowance, Family Subsistence Supplemental Allowance, Cost of Living Allowance.

The fact that you don't see this as the socialism that it is is hilarious. [/quote]

DP.  Um... you realize that members of the military are providing a HUGE service to the United States, right?  And as such, they are given certain COL allowances in return - frankly, not nearly enough for the service they provide.  It's not as if they're getting handouts for doing nothing.   :roll: [/quote]
