Bailing out farmers.
Wait, Trump did that.
Trashed as in making other countries meet there global obligations and not allowing them to take advantage of the the USA, I say trash away Mr. President it’s about damned time America took a stand against global freeloaders and we have a President that stands for America first!

Why dip in the toes?
Nope…No toe dipping.
We all know how SS worked out.
I would advocate politicians including themselves in the 1%. But we’re probably not going to get that.
Pulled a ton of people out of poverty?

Which “global freeloaders”? Other countries’ leaders were laughing at Trump. Trump on a recent visit to the UK did not have any public events knowing what sort of reception he would have met if he had.
Here’s some serious questions: Do you think Lenin and Castro, in their glorious revolutions were honest in what they told their followers? Did the people know what kind of oppressive poverty stricken hell holes communism would bring to their country? Bernie Sanders praised Fidel Castro and took his honeymoon in the Soviet Union. Don’t you think those two things make what he says about Socialism a little suspicious?
I asked another question that hasn’t been addressed. How do people prosper, or get wealthy under Socialism? Bernie is already rich, do you expect him to surrender his wealth after he enacts policies that would prevent everyone else from getting wealthy?
Political brinkmanship where nobody wants to give the other side a win. Partisan hacks who dont really care what’s best for this country. Lobbyists who fight and bribe to keep the status quo. Citizens united who allows unchecked bribery to take place. Take a pick

This what it boils down too. No current American in this country or on this board cannot say they never benefited from some form of socialism. Now don’t get me wrong, I seriously doubt people want to change our government to this form, however like capitalism there are plenty of pros and cons.
That’s why a health mix is usually a good solution.

Did FDR make the US a socialist hellhole?

Agreed
Unfortunately there are people who don’t want a healthy mix due to the type of people/demographic who would benefit from it.

Which countries do you consider to socialist countries?
Or mostly just dont understand it. Propaganda is powerful. Changing the name to entitlements and shouting communism from the roofs to a large segment of dare I say undereducated people does the trick

That’s exactly right! Trump doesn’t kiss the asses of world leaders who also, like the Democrats, believe the US tax payers should be the world’s piggy bank. Who the hell cares if other world leaders like Trump, as long as they don’t get to keep screwing us…
Exactly how does Australia “screw” the USA?
How do they screw us? Are you talking military aid like nato expenditures? Our defense industry counts on them.
America is already Mediocre.
I will be interested to see some details.
