Its literally people vs profits.

Shutting down the economy vs saving lives.

Those with excess can weather the plague just fine leaving those who are in need out to die. If you have problems its no one else's fault but your own. No reason to shut down the economy if you have enough to get by. If a few million die maybe that will free up even more wealth for the top 1%.

The problem with all of that reasoning is that the strength of humanity is in its collective. We lift up those who need help so that we are all stronger. Some problems are not people's fault. Some are unlucky, some wind up in very difficult situations through no fault of their own, and some are preyed upon by others of ill-intent.

This pandemic is teaching us a few things about ourselves. We better learn.

Oh, and...

Not a billionaire, even if you count loans past due. He's lost a billion. Flushed his inheritance, loaned funds, and our nations economy down the drain.

World peace? Are you serious? You feel the world is safer and closer to peace now than it was 4 years ago, eh? I feel American homes are safer because we're all more locked and loaded than ever, but the world as a whole? Nah.


vs an ambitious hateful woman that literally sucked cock to get into office and is pushing the most Socialist and totalitarian agenda the country has ever seen.

So you're saying Kamala sucked cock to get into office now? Presumably you have a link to some shady site that's pushing this story, or is it as much BS as the rest of what you've said in this post?

Also, why wouldn't her incredible cock sucking skills get my vote versus his cringy prostitute paying off pussy grabbin skills?

I believe this is Trump's best bet..


https://www.270towin.com/map-images/VOOb7.png

It requires Trump to win, in order of difficulty, the battlegrounds of NE-2, Pennsylvania, Florida, ME-2, and North Carolina, while holding other states that he won in 2016, except for Wisconsin, Michigan and Arizona. It is a longshot but definitely possible.

So you are saying that the guy is not a billionaire? Even with all his loans vs his net worth, he is still worth well over a billion dollars. How does math work? Stop being retarded.


World peace? Are you serious? You feel the world is safer and closer to peace now than it was 4 years ago, eh? I feel American homes are safer because we're all more locked and loaded than ever, but the world as a whole? Nah.

How many wars did he start? How many is he trying to get us out of? How many peace deals has he brokered in the Middle East? Remember when you Leftist whiners were saying he would start WWIII? Again, stop being retarded.


So you're saying Kamala sucked cock to get into office now? Presumably you have a link to some shady site that's pushing this story, or is it as much BS as the rest of what you've said in this post?

Reading comprehension, how does it work? It's well documented that she slept her way into state politics in California up from basically a clerk position. Stop being retarded.


Also, why wouldn't her incredible cock sucking skills get my vote versus his cringy prostitute paying off pussy grabbin skills?

She had an affair with Willie Brown, former San Francisco Mayor and State Assembly Speaker. She was like 30, he was married and 60.

But yea.. maybe she didn't sleep with him to help her political aspirations.. though Willie did appoint her to 2 posts.. 1st to the California Unemployment Insurance Appeals Board, and then to the Medical Assistance Commission.

First, thats not how this works. You make the claim you provide the source. I'm not going hunting for what you think is a source cause you're to lazy to cite your claims.

You could have just said "no, I don't have any real evidence and I'm just spouting opinion pieces as facts again"

It looks like she dated a mayor 20 years ago, while he was technically married he was estranged from his wife for a decade. He appointed her to a number of different positions in the CA gov't. If you have actual evidence of anything other than that happening, other than an opinion piece, please let us know.

No, if a man in Florida intentionally withheld information that would exonerate black men in prison until a court ordered them to produce it, one such man was even executed, then we would call him a corrupt piece of shit. Which is what we are calling her.

It's that while all of your points may be true (that you can criticize one woman and respect them in general, and that you support a particular female politician), your response implicitly ignores the ways Harris is being treated.

Boudicca allowed her men to rape and murder thousands of innocent civilians and was destroyed by a Roman army she outnumbered 23-1. When she lost, Britain never again tried to fight off the Romans in any meaningful way. If you are trying to point out a great leader, you are pointing at one of the biggest failures ever. I'd have probably pointed at Justinian's wife, Theodora, instead.

The bigotry of the past has no meaningful implications on women in leadership rolls.

Half the world treats women as inferior, covers every inch or flesh to hide the shame of their gender or treats them as little more than chattal and bargaining chips.. Even our own country is barely out of its suffrage movement, despite that, there are efforts of the right to keep their women meek and having more republican babies.

https://theconversation.com/how-understanding-animal-behaviour-can-liberate-us-from-gender-inequality-102981


How we behave as men and women
Research in psychology demonstrates gender differences on a broad range of personality traits, suggesting that women are less dominating than men.

On average, women score higher than men on the personality trait agreeableness, and lower on measures of social dominance orientation and self-esteem. Men are also higher on the “dark traits” of narcissism, psychopathy, and Machiavellianism.

Research that directly observes behaviour also shows clear gender differences in the expression of dominance. Women tend to interrupt less, smile more, and spend less time making eye contact when speaking and more time while listening compared to men.

Much of this behaviour occurs automatically and instinctively, without us even being aware of it. We might catch ourselves lowering our eyes when someone stares at us, dropping our shoulders and contracting our bodies to make ourselves smaller, or stepping out of someone else’s way as they approach.

These submissive behaviours are also observed among one of our closest living relatives, the chimpanzees.

And anyone with a pet dog would already be well familiar with dominance and submission behaviour in that species.

List the historically dominate nations that exist today that were founded by women..............

You can wish as hard as you want, the fact remains that we as humans overwhelmingly look for male dominate traits in our leaders. You can deny the science all you want, it doesn't change the facts.

I mean I know we have selected a woman to run for president in every election I have participated in.

Remember when the women charged bunker hill?

It was even worse when they started drafting women to go die in Vietnam, those were rough times for women.

Once upon a time a prince asked a princess to marry him, she said, no. The prince lived happily ever after.

And he rode motorcycles and fucked skinny, big titty broads. He hunted and fished whenever the fuck he wanted.

He went to naked bars and dated women half his age. Drank whiskey, beer, captain morgan and snorted cocaine of strippers breasts.

Never heard bitching, never paid child support or alimony and he got blow jobs from cheerleaders

He kept his house, his guns and never got cheated on while he was at work.

All his friends and family thought he was cool as hell.

He had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up.

So, since you embrace Socialism and the Left, you don't really think people should come first. You claim you do, but the reality is, you don't. In every case, Socialism proves that the Socialist system does not value people, it is designed to place the people last behind the system to the point of sacrificing all individuality, creativity and personal development on the alter of "the collective". So in the end, Socialism must, by it's nature, be totalitarian in implementation and because of that supporters of such things clearly don't think people should come first.

Capitalism on the other hand lifts up the individual, allowing them to make the most of their talents, abilities and drive. A free market allows a person to create wealth out of thin air by application of an idea to solve the problems of others. It is the most humane and just system there is because the individual is not restricted based on some arbitrary limit placed by another's ability, jealousy or envy. The main point that all you Leftists out there miss is that Capitalism at it's base is built on service to others. You can't sell anything to anyone that does not want it. The free exchange of goods and services has lifted more people out of poverty world wide than anything else and continues to do so. That is much more compassionate than a system that requires totalitarianism and theft from the productive to support the unwilling and to say otherwise is simply ignorance or willful deception based on envy and jealousy.

So, I reject your first premise completely and have explained why. As to the rest, despite what you think, even with social programs and so called support systems, Darwin's Law applies, the conditions are changed and those who adapt to make use of those conditions prosper and those who don't die. For example, the multi-generational welfare families and inner cities.

I believe the free market is the most just, most fair and most compassionate form of economy there is. Every other system is demonstrably worse. The caveat is that it needs to be a free market and the same rules/restrictions must apply to all equally and openly, this is where the problem comes in with government and other forms of interfearance.

I believe the final judge of everything is Divine providence and survival.

The Left and Leftists, such as yourself have done all the dehumanizing. Your leaders are the ones out there calling Conservatives "Deplorable", "Chumps" etc. You are the ones with people ranting on TV and social media wholesale about how Conservatives need to be silenced, prosecuted, killed and so on. For every militia whacko calling for extremist violence you can find dozens if not hundreds of Leftist whackos calling for the same or worse. Your leaders are the ones threatening violence if people don't vote your way and they don't win the election. It's the Left that has fostered riots, arson, looting and murder without abatement in the lead up to this election and you and your leaders have given tacit approval with your lie of "mostly peaceful". Your the ones who push a violent, racist, sexist and divisive agenda of hate and you are too blinded to see how you go along with this because your deeply corrupt and biased media has told you that it's all to assuage your little feelings so it's ok.

And it speaks volumes that you and other Leftist seek to cover up things serial sexual predators, apologize for and support mass murder of the unborn, condone the sexualization of children and continue to condone the ongoing violence across this country for your own political goals.

Oh for the love of-

Darwin's theories do not have economic applications. They are not intended to have economic applications.
Abandoning social programs is not "compassionate"
You do not now, nor have you ever lived in a country with completely free markets
Social programs are not socialism for the same reason that Carbs are not Carbonators Just because two words sound similar doesn't mean that they are the same thing. Or even related.

And as for your "lifting people up" garbage: The United States has the fourth highest poverty rate of any OECD country. Nearly 1 in 5 Americans lives in poverty and 1 in 5 American children live in poverty. Mexicio has a lower poverty rate than we do. You know where we're #1? Incarceration rate. Our incarceration rate is so bad that it's higher (per capita) than #7, 8, 9, and 10 combined. More than twice than that of the Ukraine- which is #3.

Those Social Democracies that you rant and rave about? They're running circles around us on virtually every major quality of life index.

And by the way, you're a terrible Christian who has completely disregarded the fact that Jesus repeatedly and routinely instructed us to treat immigrants as though they were Jesus Himself. And He repeatedly instructed us to show kindness and to share what we have with others. NOTHING you stand for comes even close to that. And PS He had absolutely nothing to say about abortion. Not a single word. That's not His priority- that's yours.

Its literally people vs profits.

Shutting down the economy vs saving lives.

Those with excess can weather the plague just fine leaving those who are in need out to die. If you have problems its no one else's fault but your own. No reason to shut down the economy if you have enough to get by. If a few million die maybe that will free up even more wealth for the top 1%.

The problem with all of that reasoning is that the strength of humanity is in its collective. We lift up those who need help so that we are all stronger. Some problems are not people's fault. Some are unlucky, some wind up in very difficult situations through no fault of their own, and some are preyed upon by others of ill-intent.

This pandemic is teaching us a few things about ourselves. We better learn.

TL;DR Socialism and Social Programs are unrelated concepts. Capitalism and Free Markets are unrelated concepts. Socialism and Free Markets are somewhat related. People are confusing these terms.

Okay let's just set the record straight on a few things folks.

There is no such thing as a purely capitalist or purely socialist economic system. They're theoretical ideas, not lived experiences. I think we all largely understand that (except Rockstar apparently)

But these words don't mean what people seem to think they mean:

Capitalism* is an economic system where privately owned businesses employ workers to produce goods or services for them that are legally owned by the business owners and NOT the workers themselves. That's the whole famous "alienation of labor" concept. You work 9-5 for some company, and they pay you, but you don't own a single thing you produce for them during those hours. That's what capitalism is. And that's all that Capitalism is.

Socialism* is an economic system where the means of production are controlled by the government and generally where private businesses are collectively owned. Usually that means by the workers. Sometimes it means by the community (though that starts heading a bit more into Communist territory). That's it. That's all it is.


Now here's a friendly FAQ for folks (I'm looking at you Tgo and Rockstar):

Q: Are social welfare programs socialist?
A:There is nothing inherently socialist about social welfare policies. The two words "Social" and "Socialism" sound similar, but they're not related. At all. You can- and do- have social welfare policies in both Capitalist and Socialist countries because that's a required part of responsible governance. They may go about some of those policies differently, but a lot of the time they go about them more or less the same way.

In fact, government subsidies to privately held farms, for example, are actually the oppositeof socialism. Granting universal healthcare largely through a network of privately/not collectively owned health insurance companies is also the opposite of socialism. In a socialist country, there would be no private ownership of farms, and all medical centers would either be owned by the government or collectively owned.

Q: Are Free Markets Capitalist?
A: This is where people are getting themselves in trouble. First, free markets are a myth. No one on this forum has ever lived in a free market. A free market is unrestricted competition by private companies setting prices. There's a reason why this doesn't exist in the real world. The "Invisible Hand" does not always guide things well.

As far as a free market's relationship to Capitalism, it's not a 1:1. Capitalism does *not* mean you have a free market. Governments can impose policies that impact prices no matter what economic system you're in. Now, if the Government owns all of the means of production, then it's not an entirely free market. But Socialism allows for collectively owned "private" businesses who handle distribution of goods, and you can have a free market approach to price setting there.


Than you for coming to my Ted Talk.


*These are actually diverse sets of economic systems that have a few common cores in common. Mileage varies a bit depending on time and space.

Oh for the love of-

Darwin's theories do not have economic applications. They are not intended to have economic applications.
Abandoning social programs is not "compassionate"
You do not now, nor have you ever lived in a country with completely free markets
Social programs are not socialism for the same reason that Carbs are not Carbonators Just because two words sound similar doesn't mean that they are the same thing. Or even related.

And as for your "lifting people up" garbage: The United States has the fourth highest poverty rate of any OECD country. Nearly 1 in 5 Americans lives in poverty and 1 in 5 American children live in poverty. Mexicio has a lower poverty rate than we do. You know where we're #1? Incarceration rate. Our incarceration rate is so bad that it's higher (per capita) than #7, 8, 9, and 10 combined. More than twice than that of the Ukraine- which is #3.

Those Social Democracies that you rant and rave about? They're running circles around us on virtually every major quality of life index.

And by the way, you're a terrible Christian who has completely disregarded the fact that Jesus repeatedly and routinely instructed us to treat immigrants as though they were Jesus Himself. And He repeatedly instructed us to show kindness and to share what we have with others. NOTHING you stand for comes even close to that. And PS He had absolutely nothing to say about abortion. Not a single word. That's not His priority- that's yours.

Ok fucknugget, your post is simply too full of shit to address and I have addressed it over and over before and you keep at it.

Also, since you have missed it the ridiculous number of times I have said it. I am NOT Christian. I AM, however, much more versed on the bible and Christianity than most people and there is clearly a commandment that says "Thou Shall Not Kill" and one that says "Thou Shall Not Covet" along with "Thou Shall Not Steal" and "Thou Shall Not Lie" and you Leftist break all of them all the time. And yes, Abortion is murder, especially late term abortion.

Now fuck off.

Not doing anything and then getting stuff other people worked for, for free?

Or maybe you know, doing the right thing and building up everyone collectively, as opposed to just looking out for yourself? Just because we are that way now, doesn't mean we always have to be. This where "OK, Boomer" comes from... if you can't picture a world where people changed and cared more about the collective good, you are probably the subject of the saying. Imagine if everyone had food, health care, and their other basic needs met? Can you imagine how much less crime there would be if that were the case?

I tend to agree with Drauz that a hybrid model is needed. There are pros and cons to both systems, and it doesn't have to necessarily be one verses the other. In fact, as has been pointed out, we already have plenty of socialist programs in our capitalist society, and bending that balance a little more to ensure basic human needs are met for everyone is not a bad thing, while preserving the motivational factor for excess. Sure, having basic needs met is good, but personally I'd still work because I want more.

Do you all not think the concepts of The Federation in Star trek are a good thing? Would you think it was good if the world actually worked that way, in unison or harmony, without the need for money?

Socialism as a political concept is sort of a massive range, but generally it means that the government owns the means of production (i.e. the government owns all of the steel mills, the government owns all of factories, etc), and typically the private companies that do exist are collectively owned by the employees.

I'm saying there needs to be a balance between the two. Capitalism and socialism, when both are taken to the extreme you will get big problems. I think our system favors capitalism a little to heavily, to our detriment. I don't have the solution but I am open to ideas.

Problem is: What is the motivation for socialism? You saw in the "New Green Deal" when it was originally put out that the Government should give money to those who are unable or UNWILLING to work.

If you can sit at home and collect just because you are unwilling to work.. what will motivate others to not only provide for themselves.. but to provide for those who simply don't want to work?

I think some services are essential and the government should provide them from the taxes collected. I think healthcare is one of the big ones, but I don't know the best way to go about it. I don't think the defense budget should be as big as it is, I also realize even if you took it to zero it wouldn't cover universal healthcare. It would be tough choices to get the money for it no matter what plan is chosen, but I'm willing to listen to ideas on how to achieve it.

New Green Deal would be to far to the socialist side for me. I don't want UBI, costs for everything would just rise in response.

So, since you embrace Socialism and the Left, you don't really think people should come first. You claim you do, but the reality is, you don't.

Let me be clear. I believe people come before profits. Your judgement on why you think I think that, or if you believe what I think does not achieve the goals I state that I want, is just that. My motive is the prosperity of humanity well into the future.

Understand that this does not mean I don't believe in profits or that there can only be one or the other. But when decisions about society need to be made I think those decision should always fall on the side of what benefits the people at the expense of capital every single time.


In every case, Socialism proves that the Socialist system does not value people, it is designed to place the people last behind the system to the point of sacrificing all individuality, creativity and personal development on the alter of "the collective". So in the end, Socialism must, by it's nature, be totalitarian in implementation and because of that supporters of such things clearly don't think people should come first.

You suggest that the idea of socialism is actually a method of controlling people rather than a means to benefit society grow collectively. Certainly any government supported by any economic policy can be used to control people. I do not feel socialism as an economic policy is designed that way and instead is exactly what it states it is on it face: a more fair economic policy that benefits the community.

I disagree that the individual in a socialist economy must sacrifice identity, creativity, or personal development. I really don't see how that even makes it into your conversation. Can you be more specific? How does socialism deny the individual identity?

I disagree that socialism must be totalitarian. It most certainly can be democratic if the majority wants it.

If you are arguing for the individual to have a choice on whether or not they want to participate in a socialist economy I would argue that they should but not at the expense of anyone else or at the expense of the common goal. If people want to live away from urban centers, live off the grid, not pay taxes through self-generated income, I would say sure, if they don't get in the way of what everyone else wants to do.

Socialism does not have to be totalitarian, it does not need the individual to sacrifice their identity, and it can be accomplished without everyone having to participate.


Capitalism on the other hand lifts up the individual, allowing them to make the most of their talents, abilities and drive. A free market allows a person to create wealth out of thin air by application of an idea to solve the problems of others. It is the most humane and just system there is because the individual is not restricted based on some arbitrary limit placed by another's ability, jealousy or envy. The main point that all you Leftists out there miss is that Capitalism at it's base is built on service to others. You can't sell anything to anyone that does not want it. The free exchange of goods and services has lifted more people out of poverty world wide than anything else and continues to do so. That is much more compassionate than a system that requires totalitarianism and theft from the productive to support the unwilling and to say otherwise is simply ignorance or willful deception based on envy and jealousy.

Capitalism is nothing more than an economic system that states that economy is private. This is a system that favors the few. It is a system that has no regard for what is humane or just. Regulation does that. Otherwise capitalism favors the win above all else. For example, selling something someone needs to get well is not anywhere close to being humane or just.

While someone can come up with an idea out of thin air, and it may be an idea that helps people, it takes natural resources and the cooperation of others to make it happen. It also takes society to provide an environment in which to do it, and people to support it through employment and consumption. Capitalism converts resources into wealth for the few.

You are right that capitalism does help with poverty but very unequally and only through regulations. If there were no unions or laws capitalism would most definitely restrict wages and benefits. Pure capitalism has no room for compassion.

Socialism isn't about giving everyone Bently's and condos in NY. Its about basic human needs. You say theft but I see it as responsibility not based on envy or jealousy but rather compassion and humanity. Seeing that no one in this world goes hungry is something we could accomplish. Why do you suppose we have not? What would stop us? Who could possible argue that people in this world going hungry is just and humane?


So, I reject your first premise completely and have explained why. As to the rest, despite what you think, even with social programs and so called support systems, Darwin's Law applies, the conditions are changed and those who adapt to make use of those conditions prosper and those who don't die. For example, the multi-generational welfare families and inner cities.

Darwin's Law is a general philosophy about how life evolves. Its not a method of economics or governing. Human survival is about community. I know you want to think its adaptability, but I say all life is adaptable and thats what makes life in general successful, but specifically humans rely on cooperation to not just survive but advance. We share the environment thus need to be mindful of each other and lift each other up for the good of all. We don't let our own families suffer in the cold and that is why we are where we are today. Armstrong did not land on the moon by himself.


I believe the free market is the most just, most fair and most compassionate form of economy there is. Every other system is demonstrably worse. The caveat is that it needs to be a free market and the same rules/restrictions must apply to all equally and openly, this is where the problem comes in with government and other forms of interfearance.

A pure free market is no more just, fair, or compassionate than nature. Humans are. Socialism is the more compassionate way.


I believe the final judge of everything is Divine providence and survival.

I don't know what the final judge is but I do know our survival relies our collective effort.

It would be tough choices to get the money for it no matter what plan is chosen, but I'm willing to listen to ideas on how to achieve it.

Problem is: When healthcare is rationed with "universal healthcare", it becomes bad. There is no motivation for innovation or research.. it's all about getting people in and out as fast and as cheaply as possible.

I do agree that defense needs to be trimmed down.. but right now we basically protect the free world, while those countries can then spend their money on other things (like healthcare). Getting these countries to pick up "OMG THEIR FAIR SHARE" would be awesome.


New Green Deal would be to far to the socialist side for me. I don't want UBI, costs for everything would just rise in response.

Except the fact is, the positions, politicians and ideology you support along with your statements over the years suggest that you are lying because they do not support people before the system. They say they do but the system they espouse does not. Socialism does not, in any way, assure anyone but the very highest of the leadership, prosperity, for the rest it assures misery, poverty and death, none of which is at the benefit of “the people at the expense of capital”.


You suggest that the idea of socialism is actually a method of controlling people rather than a means to benefit society grow collectively. Certainly any government supported by any economic policy can be used to control people. I do not feel socialism as an economic policy is designed that way and instead is exactly what it states it is on it face: a more fair economic policy that benefits the community.

No bonehead, I suggest that Socialism leads to totalitarianism in every case known to man. Sooner or later the economic system and philosophy must, by it’s nature, lead to government control, force to take what it deems needed and violence to quell disagreement. Period. No one cares what you feel, the facts are different and that is the problem. There is no more fair economic policy than capitalism, period.


I disagree that the individual in a socialist economy must sacrifice identity, creativity, or personal development. I really don't see how that even makes it into your conversation. Can you be more specific? How does socialism deny the individual identity?

Gods, do you read history books? How many people were sent to the camps in Germany? Over 11 million and yes, Germany preWWII was a Socialist economy. How many dissidents went to the gulag in the USSR, conservative guesses are 20 million. How many were killed in the purges in China under Mao? Again, conservative estimates are around 50 million. Two million under Pol Pot in Cambodia, a million in Armenia and Rowanda all because totalitarian Socialist/Communist governments can’t stand dissent. How many artists in the USSR were silenced, how many were only published after they escaped? Take a history class. When the people are considered property of the state, which is a final outcome of Socialism and the totalitarianism that comes from it, then the individual becomes meaningless and has no rights. This is all well documented and described in countless books and movies but all you Leftist shills continue to excuse it by “That’s not real Socialism”. It is the real Socialism and it is what will happen to every country and economy that goes down that path. You and the Left are supremely arrogant to think that somehow you know better and things will turn out differently because you are somehow smarter and wiser than all the others that have tried this shit.


I disagree that socialism must be totalitarian. It most certainly can be democratic if the majority wants it.
You can disagree all you want, you are wrong. And just because the majority wants it doesn’t make it moral, ethical or right. The majority voted for Hitler as well as the Bolshivick revolution and Mao. If the majority voted to murder you just because you exist, would that make it right? No. Same principle stands.


If you are arguing for the individual to have a choice on whether or not they want to participate in a socialist economy I would argue that they should but not at the expense of anyone else or at the expense of the common goal. If people want to live away from urban centers, live off the grid, not pay taxes through self-generated income, I would say sure, if they don't get in the way of what everyone else wants to do.

I bolded the parts that simply negates everything you said and is you arguing that people should have no choice and be forced to do what the state says. This is you agreeing with and supporting totalitarianism. Period. You are deluded to think otherwise.


Socialism does not have to be totalitarian, it does not need the individual to sacrifice their identity, and it can be accomplished without everyone having to participate.

Why do you suppose we have not? What would stop us? Who could possible argue that people in this world going hungry is just and humane?
When you look at what others have and you want it and you are unwilling to do what is necessary to obtain it, you want to take from other to give it to you, then it is theft and the epitome of envy, jealousy and covetousness. Every welfare program on the planet is done this way because everything that has been provided above food, clothing and shelter is not a need. Before welfare, people provided for the poor far better than are provided now, and they paid less taxes so they could afford to be more generous. If people are unwilling to do what is needed to feed themselves then what is just and humane about stealing from others to “take care of” the unwilling. In addition, a government that can give a person everything they want can also take it away and the person, unwilling to overcome their addiction to comfort without labor is then a slave to the government.


Darwin's Law is a general philosophy about how life evolves. Its not a method of economics or governing. Human survival is about community. I know you want to think its adaptability, but I say all life is adaptable and thats what makes life in general successful, but specifically humans rely on cooperation to not just survive but advance. We share the environment thus need to be mindful of each other and lift each other up for the good of all. We don't let our own families suffer in the cold and that is why we are where we are today. Armstrong did not land on the moon by himself.

No one cares what you believe, the fact is a massive body of literature and science supports the assertion that human survival is about adaptability. The rest is your own wishes and emotions spewed in verbal rubbish.


A pure free market is no more just, fair, or compassionate than nature. Humans are. Socialism is the more compassionate way.
Over 120 million dead since 1900 suggest otherwise. Keep in mind that number doesn’t count those who have died in Socialist/Communist countries from disease and starvation that would not have happened had they had capitalist economies to serve their needs better.


I don't know what the final judge is but I do know our survival relies our collective effort.

What a nice emotional sentiment that in no way justifies Socialism/Communism.
In conclusion, read a history book written at least 30 years ago that isn’t replete with SJW changes and emotional garbage, read an economics book and maybe start to use some rational thinking as opposed to your feelings and then you might get somewhere.

Yeah, because doing things like withholding evidence that would have gotten an innocent person off of death row, etc. is totally being "tough on crime."

Confirmed BriarFox wants to lock up all black people. Racist.

While she was district prosecutor, two detectives were eventually found guilty of framing a guy for murder and withholding evidence. There is a huge chasm between the truth and what you said.

Why do you think it is ok to have the government take over 1/6th of the entire economy, control production and distribution of healthcare and enslave the people and medical profession to support that?

Your answer is right there in the quote you used.

Again, it's really worth repeating here: social welfare programs are not examples of socialism.

Every political and economic system has them. What decides whether or not they're "socialist" or "capitalist" (or neither) is how they're carried out.

Public roads built by private companies using asphalt produced by private companies = capitalism
Public roads built by worker-owned private companies using asphalt produced by non-worker-owned private companies = A little capitalism, a little socialism-ish
Public roads built by worker-owned private companies using asphalt, the production of which is exclusively owned by the government = socialism

It doesn't matter which of those three you pick- you're going to end up with public roads. The only difference is how they got there.

And not everything a government does is "socialist" or "capitalist". Not everything is about the means of production or the relationship workers have to the companies who employ them. Ironically this was, and continues to be, one of the primary critiques of Marx. He tried to boil EVERYTHING down to the relationship between workers and their employers (and their own labor). And the world just isn't that simple.



Also: Rockstar- you're an idiot, and you SERIOUSLY need to shut up about this stuff for a while and go learn about it from non-partisan sources. Or, I don't know, maybe actually read Marx and Engels yourself and stop relying on Tucker Carlson to be your Academic expert on them.

I don't believe there's any plan on the table that would be entirely single-payer. Biden has floated a single-payer option. No need to distort the truth, and no need to change your health insurance if you don't want to.

Except Harris said she wants to transition everyone to Medicare within 10 years. Oh but no worries! Private health care will still exist, just the government will regulate them as far as price, services, and every other facet so the plans will effectively be the exact same thing as just enrolling in Medicare.

It's like you don't even know what the fuck the candidates are saying but you'll be sure to "vote blue no matter who" all the while telling us non-liberal elites that we are just a bunch of uneducated and uninformed hicks.

You're talking about the plan she floated as candidate, but you're very confused about it. It did not eliminate private insurance, though it did change the rules for it a bit. (And she is no longer floating that plan, though I suppose it's possible she might return to it in the future.) If you don't want to look like an "uneducated and uninformed hick," maybe you should stop frothing at the mouth and read past clickbait headlines.

A bit? A FUCKING BIT?! Private health insurance will be regulated as far as services and prices go to match what Medicare offers, so they will basically just be Medicare clones. Are you sure you're know what you're talking about?

Analysis / Bias

In review, Bizpac Review covers news and opinion content with a strong conservative Republican bias. They also have a people section that covers commentary and news about other conservatives such as Donald Trump, Kellyanne Conway and Laura Ingraham, all of which have poor records with fact checkers.

Story selection always favors the right and utilizes loaded emotional wording such as this: Speaker makes big mistake of addressing crowd as ‘guys’ at Dem Socialists of America convention. This story is sourced to video followed by biased commentary with loaded wording such as this: “Not that Comrade Jackson didn’t begin by noting his preferred pronouns — but this was AFTER he addressed the room as “guys.” When not reporting negatively on Democrats, they frequently glorify Donald Trump and other conservatives with positive wording such as this: Trump suggests combo gun and immigration action to make something ‘GREAT, come out of two tragic events’. This story is reported with mostly neutral wording using quotes from the President, which differs greatly from their reporting on the left, which offers strong opinions.

Editorially, Bizpac Review almost always favors the right. They also republish content from the factually Mixed Daily Caller.

A factual search reveals a few failed fact checks by IFCN fact checkers.
