China is a superpower and put us on our knees with a bat.
since i dont have a mansiona nd arent one of the multi billionaires im not worried…
highroller:We’ve become a third world country with nuclear weapons. A lot like the USSR except calling ourselves “capitalist” instead of “communist”
We are still the only superpower. But your comments are very revealing about how LIBs see America and its role in the world.
the only reason we are considered a superpower is the god awful amount of money we spend on our military.
Socialism! Venezuela!
Rah! Rah!
venezuela isnt socialist. its a kleptocracy
since i dont have a mansiona nd arent one of the multi billionaires im not worried…
Imagine that.
Doesn’t matter. We’ll just seize what you do own and put that percentage of tax on you.
peek-a-boo:Socialism! Venezuela!
Rah! Rah!
venezuela isnt socialist. its a kleptocracy
Irony
Very revealing indeed.
Actually that isn’t remotely true. I realize that America isn’t the socialist utopia you seem to long for, but thank God for that.
Actually, I don’t support a socialist nation. That’s one of the many reasons I oppose Trump. Too many of his ideas are socialist.
A healthcare plan that covers everyone, with the government picking up the tab for those who can’t afford it.
Massive corporate bailouts.
Increasing taxation via tariffs and redistributing the wealth to farmers.
And the list goes on and on.
They paid themselves dividends while laying a bunch of people off and stopped payment on their debt.
Aaaaah you mean like a certain instution that didn’t have to apply and be approved for loan/grants . . . but instead had millions specifially in the bill for them – and once they got it . . . . first thing they did was lay off employee’s?
as more and more of this comes out more and more americans are going to say enough is enough.
maybe its time to seize their property and turn it into homeless shelters. I wonder how many homeless could be housed in their mansions?
Lets start with the Hollywood eliet and Congress critter homes first. After a year, THEN we will see how much talk there is of seizing of property. While we are at it, why do hollywood actors, and sports stars need so much money – if we do wealth confiscation start with them – They only need say a million a year or less right? Take theirs and anything a congress critter makes over say 500k a year. Then after a year see where we stand.
Deal?
moonshine:the whole idea of american style free market capitalism is coming to an end
No its not. I realize LIBs are looking to socialism as an answer to their dreams, but Bernie’s quick exit shows that America isn’t ready to abandon what made it great.
What world are you living in? Have you seen what is happening? The United States government has bipartisanly(not sure that’s a word) accepted that the free market doesn’t work in this situation. There are millions of Americans out there who hate their idea of “socialism”(who actually don’t know what socialism is which is why I put it in quotation marks), but right now are demanding their money from the government.

Because the government took over the market.
This is exactly what happens when the godforsaken lib media gets into people’s heads! How can our great nation and Dear Leader hope to win when the media actually has people convinced America and capitalism don’t work? Socialism has destroyed us!
Now why’s my stimulus check late?
the whole idea of american style free market capitalism is coming to an end
No it isn’t. It is resurging.
american companies have always begged for less regulation. lower taxes. more freedom etc… the rich get richer while the poor suffer more and more.
Of course. Why do you think jobs went overseas? Regulation, high taxes, restricted freedom.
yet for the second time in 10 years when the ■■■■ hits the fan the corporations start begging for bailouts.
Not unexpected. Nor is it limited to corporations.
we are going to start seeing much higher taxes on the wealthy. much more regulation.
That’s what got us into this mess in the first place. Do the opposite and you will see America and Americans prosper again.
Some common sense is in order.

Yes. The heads of the Kennedy center did wrong.
Not going to get an argument from me about it.
There is a difference though.
The money appropriated to them did not take away from anyone else. Rich people raiding a program for small business does.

Jobs went overseas because of costs.
We like cheap stuff.
Also… the wealthy have been getting tax cuts for years now.
I wouldn’t mind seeing it imposed on you.
It’s all well and good until it hits your own personal pocket book, right?
but Bernie’s quick exit shows that America isn’t ready to abandon what made it great.
American Dems
seize their property and turn it into homeless shelters.
You can’t be serious. Imagine Pelosi having to share her ice cream. Oh, the horror.
It also shows that libs aren’t really supporters of socialism. Scratch one talking point. Otherwise Bernie would have leading the race instead of exiting.
