So many people are economically illiterate.
Ever notice how many of those are liberals and/or Democrats? It makes you want to cry. They're likely to have the Presidency and Congress in January. God save us.


I pray something like that daily.

If capitalism produces only crap and socialization (aka socialism) produces quality, why was it the socialist paradises which had to build walls to keep people in instead of keeping people out?
And why is the USSR gone? And Vietnam and mainland China Communist in name only? And so many eastern European nations so eager to be free of their Communist masters?

How much tragedy and poverty does socialism have to create before people stop idolizing it?
AH, but OUR advocates of it hope to be the ones controlling it. They do fine.


Yes, its just the wrong guys tried the socialism thing. Our liberals are all noble high-minded people who care about children - that will make it different.
