  1. Socialism fails every time it's tried, unfortunately America is deteriorating into socialism. People claim it's capitalism that's failing but the more socialism creeps in the less successful America is.

  2. Fezz They are going down the tubes as we speak.Communism and socialism have a number of things in common not the least of which is robbing the individual of freedom for some grand social experiment that benefits the few who run the show on the backs of the rest.

  3. MET-TECH LLC Consumers pay ALL corporate taxes. So if you raise taxes on oil the poor man filling his tank pays , if you raise taxes on WalMart the single mother pays more for food and clothing. Does that sound unfair?????? Who would you enslave to get your oil and WalMart goods from, because it takes people and organizations of people (corporations) to voluntarily do the work to bring consumers competitive prices on the things they need.   Capitalism is good, crony capitalism is what WE have and it's not good. Government control is at an all time high and things keep getting less affordable and less efficient. The Idiots took over our Health Care and can't even run a website. obamacare is so inept they can't run a website, you can't keep your doctor and you didn't save anything. My plan was cancelled , my doctor and clinic left town and my current benefits are much less. Yes some people will benefit but it's only because government throws money at them to subsidize their welfare healthcare.  You talk about the progressive tax structure burdening the lower class, LIES. Almost all the people I know in the lower middle class not only DON'T PAY INCOME TAXES but they get money back called EIC. My guess if your young and haven't had many tax returns yet. I am upper middle class and I've paid up to $60k a year on taxes , I own a business and the last thing I want is any help from the worthless incompetent wasteful government.  Don't think government is too big ? Start with paying your share of the 17 trillion dollar debt. Try critical thinking instead of regurgitating emotional non-logic.

  4. Tahuan Tinsuyo If your definition of success is oppressing the gifted and motivated in society and rewarding the the lazy and ignorant then I understand your confusion.

  5. Tahuan Tinsuyo One of my very best friends is Cuban and he managed to escape with his life. He has crohns disease and would be dead if he stayed in communist Cuba.  The qualifications for doctors an lawyers in third world poor countries are much lower.

  6. Tahuan Tinsuyo I don't know what hole you live in but I'm a free American who doesn't live  150 years in the past. My Latino and Black neighbors are just as happy to live in this country as I am, with the same rights and opportunities that I have. You are a hater with bad information. My Cuban friend runs his own very successful business. No one here has slaves or wants them we are free to participate in a free market that benefits every individual and if some get wealthy we admire them and seek to be like them. Only small minded weak people seek to take away from others instead of making their own fortune.

  7. Tahuan Tinsuyo I beg to differ did you see the elections last night ? It was a blowout against the socialist crony capitalist obama administration. Your baseless accusations are a result of desperation for a failed ideology not based in truth.

  8. Tahuan Tinsuyo Ok now you have proven you're a genuine idiot nutcase. nazi ? do you even know the connection to the palistinians?Do you know nazi means national socialist party ??? which is what your defending . hitler was a left wing socialist employing a fascist methodology. you have been filled with shit that isn't true but it would take a thinking person to know he's been fooled.

  9. Tahuan Tinsuyo Racist ? You are so unintelligent you don't know the difference between a race and a country. I told you my friend Jamlec is Cuban and he would be dead if he had stayed in Cuba .

  10. Tahuan Tinsuyo That doesn't excuse your obvious hypocrisy . National liberation from what ? The answer is of course oppressive national governments, like Communist Cuba.

  11. Tahuan Tinsuyo You must a miserable punk accusing all those around you for your complete failure as a human being . No one buys the whole zionist BS , there are people who succeed, the majority of society who benefits from that success and those whiney losers who are jealous. The worst thing about socialism is the cap on success ! Your neomarxist goblety goo only makes sense to the weak minded.

  12. Elem Oki Me too I think he'd make a great alternative to another clinton or bush.

  13. Elem Oki Ironically you are somewhat correct . Fascism is a problem, but it's a methodology to bring about the socialism most Americans reject.  A lot of people think the nazis were right wing extremists , that is false. They attribute fascism with being right wing, fascism is a methodology used by both right and left wing forms of government. Nazi means national socialist party , definitely a left wing extremist organization.  I think you need to look at two other words to see the damage being created , statist and corporatist.

  14. You got to ask yourself "if Cuba is so wonderful why are people risking their lives to come to America and escape Cuba ?".

  16. G mers Like Greece ? How's that euro working out ? My friends in the UK spend much more time working for the government (taxes) than for themselves.

  17. 7h3647h32in6 Do you know what he Fed is?  Yes, the Fed can and will raise interest rates on the national debt.

  18. V8PORS My best friend is Cuban and now a US Citizen, he can tell you all about poverty and the prison called Cuba.

  19. Tahuan Tinsuyo A traitor to a commuist prison LOL !!!

  20. V8PORS He must have been a big looser !!!

  21. V8PORS Concise and to the point, my friend has a successful business that he is very proud of and would never move back to Cuba.

  22. 7h3647h32in6 None of what I said was dishonest if you can read and understand. Also you are ASSUMING interest rates will stay ultra low as they have been (history says no). The United states will collapse at a point when it works out for the rest of the world. We have the highest corporate tax rate in the world driving business away and much more regulation of business than most parts of the world also driving business and investment away.      History proves you wrong. Free Market Capitalism made the US the the strongest nation the world has ever known. The more socialistic (crony capitalism) we get the less power we have. To quote a famous saying " The problem with socialism is sooner or later you run out of other peoples money".

  23. V8PORS And Cuba isn't a "dictatorship in which a small inner circle have control of the national resources." of course.......

  24. Tahuan Tinsuyo So what if it's a "dictatorship in which a small inner circle have control of the national resources."

  25. Tahuan Tinsuyo I'm just saying it's better here than in a communist prison. Let's not forget the worthless government that bailed wall street out !

  26. V8PORS So explain all the people risking their lives to escape to America.

  27. Tahuan Tinsuyo Ill take that as an admission.

  28. Kim Il-sung Those are tried and convicted criminals. North Korea / Cuba has in-prisoned the entire population of their citizens.

  29. V8PORS ITS A PRISON, PLAIN AND SIMPLE. THEY CAN'T LEAVE AND THEY DON'T CONTROL THEIR OWN LIVES.

  30. Kim Il-sung You have to know why smart talented people have to be kept prisoner in a country that neither rewards them nor allows them to reach their potential. Capitalism (freedom of commerce ) allows the gifted people to shine and the average people to choose what they want to do and what they want to buy. In a successful Capitalist society the incoming wealth also allows a welfare system that helps the underclass. Communism treats everyone like the underclass.

  31. Kim Il-sung That's just idiotic, no one put me here. I chose to work within a social compact and in a merit based system and I have my own business. When business is good I pay my contractors (I don't employ regular workers) up to $10,000 a week. I don't owe anyone anything. I did the work and payed my way and quite frankly I pay tons of taxes to my society. If anything my people owe me a debt of gratitude for what I have done for my society. Real Americans don't think that way though We are just happy to live in Freedom.

  32. Kim Il-sung I prefer the benefits and risks of Freedom to the certainty of Communism.  "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."  Theodore Rosevelt

  33. Kim Il-sung Wrong,  I'm almost 50 and I've enjoyed the benefits all my life. The problem with America now is creeping socialism.

  34. Kim Il-sung Its not free market capitalism anymore and that is the corruption that is the problem. It's still better here than 90% of the world.

  35.  Communism is sustainable misery for all, but some things should not be sustained. And BTW I have 2 Pickups, a HEMI Jeep, a Saturn SKY , RZR 1000, motorcycles etc etc so I'm better off than 1920.

  36. Kim Il-sung Rubbish, the problem is crony capitalism which isn't even close to Free Market Capitalism. Government in bed with big business is destroying the economy and is unsustainable here in the States. China, Russia, the EU etc etc absolutely rely on Capitalism. You are saying you don't like the wheels on the world wide economy. You can't have Freedom without Capitalism and Capitalism can't exist without Freedom.  This idea of fairness implies a brute force , most the time a tyrannical government. Democracy without limits is also like this fairness idea. Unlimited democracy always leads to mob rule and destruction. The only fairness dictators or governments can guarantee is equality of misery and they never include themselves in this. For example obamacare , the government rulers have excluded themselves from it. Notice I said rulers, as they have become under a more liberal government. They are supposed to be Public Servants.  Here is a very simplified video of how things are supposed to be in America.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdS6fyUIklI

  37. Kim Il-sung So Communism exploits people against their will , but thats ok  and Capitalism is evil because people who freely participate are too stupid to know they are being exploited ?

  38. Kim Il-sung I see you think economics is a zero sum game, keynesian economics. wealth can't be created only stolen. This is the root of your ignorance.  If I plant a garden, tend to it and reap from it and it yields tomatoes I have created a wealth of tomatoes that didn't exist before. Let's say my neighbor builds homes and I trade a couple of hundred thousand tomatoes to him to build a home for me. Now there is a home,  that is wealth. Let's say instead of a home I trade him for gold which I use to buy other food (created wealth) or a car or boat etc etc. What if poor people trade their natural resources for food , is that a theft that should be eliminated ?  Let me suggest if natural resources are in short supply the poor countries should learn to feed themselves. There is no such thing as limited wealth as long as people are willing to invent , dream , and work.

  39. Kim Il-sung I'm sure you would condemn the United States for taking out the corrupt governments also. You have no solution. 3rd world countries are undeveloped because of the people that live there not the US. The US also gives billions of dollars of aid to help the poor all around the world but that's not good enough for you , we also have to be blamed for their own corruption and ignorance. 
    1
  40. Kim Il-sung My question was, do you advocate removing evil corrupt governments ? Or maybe we should just cut off trade so we don't take advantage of poor stupid people in undeveloped countries. What is the answer ?

  41. Kim Il-sung You don't have any answers only complaints. 
    1
  42. Kim Il-sung Your moral based intervention suddenly becomes muddy when people die . I would be happy to have a non-interventionalist foreign policy if no one  attacked America or her Allies.  Cuba is a poor backward 3rd world country because of Fidel and Communism.

  43. Kim Il-sung No real answers ???

  44. Kim Il-sung NO, communism is a prison. With all due respect I'd rather be stranded in the wilderness with my freedom than under the thumb of a merciless Communist dictatorship.

  45. Kim Il-sung N Korea is a prison and it's prisoners are propagandized with lies and mis information. We probably better stop talking I wouldn't want you to get in trouble for too much interaction with the enemy (but of course I'm not your enemy). 
    1
  46. Kim Il-sung I'm not your enemy, N Korea isn't a threat to me either. You keep believing what you want, the truth would probably make you miserable because you aren't in any position to leave the prison.

  47. Kim Il-sung Enjoy your life my friend, I wish you well with what life has given you.

  48. Kim Il-sung I hear you , we could have been great friends under different circumstances.

  49. zaxx19 Do you know any Canadians ? I do and the system is fine IF you don't mind standing in line for hours AND you don't have anything serious. If your problem is serious and or expensive to treat, you go to America and pay cash or just suffer and die.  I have been over seas and if you don't mind tiny houses, tiny cars and very limited lives you might think they are successful. Post industrial Amerika is doomed because of the liberal idiots and their socialistic crony capitalistic ideas.
