Lol @ Suozzi

One of the biggest Wall Street shills in Congress. Talks a big game to stay elected in his purple district but just votes with the rest of the Dems on basically everything as discreetly as he can.

It's like this, less than half the country is paying more into FICA than they get "back". The whole income tax scheme was a redistribution scam all along, or at least turned into one. 1 out of 6 people recieve welfare.

What the scam of socialism is they pretend to be Robin Hood "take from the rich to give to the poor" but what ends up happening is most people end up paying more than ever and a lot of people start getting paid for doing nothing and all these services never turn out to do what they charged you to do. Most of us know this.

Example of Socialism is using tax payer dollars to build and fund Learing Centers.

It's not that I support socialism, i just can't stand the hypocrisy and the illusion that we keep perpetuating, that we live in some sort of free market capitalist system. Instead of being angry at somebody for wanting medicaid for all, maybe the anger should be redirected toward the actual thieves who run our country and steal trillions. We could fund universal healthcare just with the money we spent in the middle east since 2001. I'm not saying we should, but if we're going to waste money, I'd rather that money be spent on regular middle class Americans, not defense contractors, NGOs and lobbyists

Right, except I'd just like to see the middle class taxed less to where we don't have the government "needing" to fund anything. Even things like healthcare don't cost near as much as what it's charged due to all of the BS around it. The fact is that the average working person is paying half their earnings in taxes in one way or another.

And people can cry about it, and say it isn’t capitalism. It is capitalism because the profits are private gain.

Whether the united states is fully socialist or not has nothing to do with my comment. Taking things you did not earn from people that did by force is theft

Yea right lmao. Sure, everybody is consenting.


The reality is that nobody consents. That is why Mark Fischer deleted himself. He saw through it, and how diabolical it is.


Capitalism is so horrific the devil himself could have only came up with such an idea.

Nobody consents to state theft, correct. The labor market is entirely based on consent. It would be nice to be able to start a business and make people work for you whether they want to or not but that's just not how anyone outside of Washington does things :(
