the poor see themselves not as an exploited proletariat, but as temporarily embarrassed millionaires.

John Steinbeck

Good for them!

Because socialist are all fudgepackers like you.

Yay, another gay insult.

Socialism has not worked anyplace it was tried.

Well, that is bullsh*t. Working fine in many countries in Europe. Hell, we have dozens of socialist programs here in the US as well.

Because God made us Horny greedy pricks..

Strange since his son, apparent son, tought the complete opposite.

Really? Do tell.

...and you see what that got him.

Socilaism is alive and well because of our illutrious socialist/facist/marxist buddy that's driving this country in the ground and taking up space in the White House

Socialism has only ever been partially implemented in Europe and it is not working too well. It has been under dismantlement for quite some time. It turns out it requires a lot of money for care and feeding.

Socialism Light in the USA also hasn't worked out too well because as it turns out, it requires a lot of money for care and feeding.

no 4o acres and mule for X..... 😞

You can have 40 acres in Minot...but you have to act fast.

🤔 🤔

Socialism is fine until they (da gubment) run out of everyones money, then what?

Had Beyder gotten a mule with his forty acres his poor seester could have avoided the tractor.


GOVERNMENT MULE INDIAN GIVER OUTRAGE!!!!

Socialist programs ? So which one of these illustrious ''programs'' is a success? They are nothing more than ways to transfer wealth from those that make money to those that take the money.
Individuals are entitled to equal rights afforded to them by the constitution, not equal wealth at the expense of others. This mentality has created a class of people that have no desire or reason to ever contribute to society.
Why is it that our states that have such great social programs are broke? For example NY where I happen to call home (for now) is/was 14 billion dollars in debt when last I cared? If these programs worked so well then wouldn't NY be a shining example of success and not the place where people are fleeing to find better economic circumstances?

So, what is the real problem?

1. Inability to pay, but continuing to spend more on social programs; or
2. That social programs are inherently destructive?
