I agree.
I agree.
This is a question …
This is a question where it pays to not overthink. Communism makes the most sense if you don’t take colors into account, but rather politics (in a tongue-in-cheek way). Certainly too DECEPTIVE of a question for that level.
So you respond to a …
So you respond to a post I made weeks ago and call me and idiot. CLASSY BRO.
Why don’t you get a life and realize that you are just some kind of forum troll, screaming and railing against a society that cares nothing for you? How pathetic.
It’s obvious that you need a life. Congratulations.
I love that …
I love that sheepish smile she gave right after she said final answer XD
The polls show that …
The polls show that most Americans oppose Obamacare, idiot. The fact that Obama was elected does not mean that the American people agree with his entire agenda.
Obama is a …
Obama is a socialist.
The Democrats ARE …
The Democrats ARE socialists.
Well, we do have …
Well, we do have socialistic elements in all of the scandinavian countries, but most people in this world wont call Sweden socialistic. That is, except for many americans who`s getting told by Fox that it is so:O
Agree. In the US, the rich people are the dictators. Everyone cannot be rich, there will always be classes in society, but it is possible to give everyone a worthy life.
U know I live in a …
U know I live in a very socialist country, sweden, and U know I can see that in the US people can reach fortune and become billioneers but only if they come from the right part of town, or happen to be rappers(´XD´), but you know I also see less people eating out of dumbsters compared with the amount of people in that country((btw most ppl seems to like che and he was a commy so XD
Exactly! Society …
Exactly! Society should give gifted people the chance and freedom to use their talents, and this require a mix of capitalism and socialism. Capitalism gives them some economical freedom, and the socialistic parts take care of the ones in need and makes sure that everyone get a chance in life.
Many US citizens talk about their freedom as something special, but I would say anyone growing up in a poor family have more freedom if they live in a country where society takes care of them^^
Actually I’m very …
Actually I’m very very lower class, but smart enough to look at the bigger picture. I should have worked harder in school or made any number of different decisions, but since I didn’t earn it I don’t deserve it
Spoken like someone …
Spoken like someone who’s never had the misfortune of being in the lower classes of society.
that is a bit hard …
that is a bit hard for an easy question…
Good job for …
Good job for pointing that out, so why doesn’t America do that for healthcare? I mean it works great for other countries, are they afraid of a little higher tax? Is that how greedy Americans are? That they refuse socialized healthcare because of money? They refuse to help eachothers lives because it costs a little money?
American’s pay …
American’s pay taxes for school. They are not free.
There is no such thing as a Free Lunch.
NOTHING is free.
Just so you know, …
Just so you know, the Nazi Party was also known as The National Socialist German Workers’ Party.
You don’t know what …
You don’t know what socialism is, ill give you examples of socialism in America since you are American.
Your schools are socialist because they are free and can be accessed by everyone in your country. Your mail dilivery is socialist because anyone can send and recieve mail. And in Canada, our health care is socialist because everyone can access.
Your an idiot. Yes …
Your an idiot. Yes I’m well aware of that, thats why I used it as an EXAMPLE, it would be like comparing apples to oranges, like kiwi’s to strawberries. Its retarded and doesn’t make sense.
Socialism cannot, by principle alone, never work in modern society, in any society where people have emotion and an urge to go great things. Socialism kills off all of this. Keep in mind, someone has to be paying the bill, you can’t be an illegal obama and just print money to devalue the dollar.
Things that are for …
Things that are for pleasure in life should be worked for, and people who are better than other people should get more of these pleasures.
This is what i meant by my comment, is there anything else you need clarity on?
Hitler’s germany …
Hitler’s germany was a Fascist country. Stalin’s russia was a communist country.
You do realize neither is socialism or capitalism?
Everyone is equal in the sense that they need education at the start of life. Everyone is equal in the sense that they may need healthcare at different points of life. Wether its having a baby, dieing of old age or something else.
People who are not at those stages in life should help the people who are, and be helped when they hit those stages.
A balance of …
A balance of socialism and capitalism….are you serious…wow. You clearly have no idea what its like to earn your own way.
Not everyone can be on welfare, there is no reason everyone should be equal. Noone starts off equal, and no one ends up equal. You may not like it but you need to admit it.
You do realize your comment is like saying there needed to be balance between hitler and stalin right?
Americans need to …
Americans need to realize there needs to be a balance of socialism and capitalism for a good society.
OHHH NO SHE …
OHHH NO SHE DIII’INT!!! Fuck. Get on back outta heAH! Blue state, red state, egg on your face, I wonder if it’s cause of your race?!!
The time limit …
The time limit might have been a factor here, forcing her into a bad guess.
It’s a crossword: …
It’s a crossword: being blue means sad. Therefore, melancholy is the answer. Duh.
