What is Socialism?

We have no choice but to concede socialism does work for a handful

Take the Obamas, for example. After 11 years of public service and a previous career as a "community organizer," BHO now lives in an $8.1 million mansion. And he is projected to soon become a BILLIONAIRE. According to federal filings, he was worth about $1M at the time he took office in the WH.

Think of how many caravaners the Obama Family could fit in such a gigantic house -- I wonder how many they will be inviting to move in?

And it’s not just the obamas that flourish once they get to DC. Their needs to be a complete house cleaning of all politicians. Their salaries of public service and their speaking engagements don’t match their financial portfolio. Vote them out and have term limits.

GDP growth is stable and 87% of the population has achieved equality. Plus Venezuela is a great place to diet successfully - you don't even have to put in the effort. Maybe Michael Moore should move there.
 
Communism is the state-less utopia stage. Socialism is the transition phase to go from Capitalism to Communism.

Communism has never really happened. All the central planning states in history have been Socialist.

Who would have guessed that when people own property they like to take care of it. When no one owns it (the government) no one cares enough to take care of it.

Plus when the government pollutes land (and it happens all the time), who is there to hold them to account.
 
The Venezuela People are trying to escape from Socialism.

Has anybody ever tried to escape from Capitalism?
 
Is anybody else feeling tired from the Daylight Savings Time?

I don’t think I actually lost an hour, I think Bernie Sanders took that hour and gave it to someone else that needed more. :cursing2:

If that happened, how will we explain going back to Standard Time this fall? Would the recipient gladly return it when he no longer needed it? :smile1:
