You have it completely backwards. The indigenous people of the Americas lived about 3000 years behind the white men who came to the continent. Literally, their technological level was about what Europe was 3000-4000 years before it advanced. And the natives were not some noble savages, they were quite brutal people. Just look at all the human sacrifices which were conducted in modern day Mexico. The sad truth is, the natives were just far too primitive to thrive in a modern world where Europe was connected with America. They had a choice, adapt to the new ways or languish and lose all prosperity. Sadly, they were too far behind culturally and technologically to easily transition to a modern lifestyle. Some have, but many have simply lived tortured lives. One thing hurt people do is try to blame someone else to try and reduce their suffering just a little bit. The fact is, Europeans were no more aggressive than any number of tribes in the Americas. They simply had such a technological advantage, they were able to win and conquer in a way that was unseen on the continent. Please stop spreading the ideas of hippy Native Americans and noble savages, it is so archaic and such a wrong idea.

@jeanclaudejunior - Socialism doesn't work. Whether it is democratic socialism or otherwise.

@ramenbomberdeluxe4958 - No, socialist countries almost universally failed. Yugoslavia is the only one which isn't immediately recognizable as a failed state. Yet, if you do the barest of digging, you would gind Yuhoslavia was not keeping up with Western technological innovation in manufacturing and other important areas. What socialists like you don't get is that socialism is inherently bad, it isn't even a corrupt people thing. Free markets are so incredibly more efficient than socialism, they allocate capital to give a significantly higher yield from investment. Whwn you conpoymd that over years, including R&D advantages, the superiority of the Westerh system us insurmountable. This is to say nothing of the oppression which is required for it to work. My question is very simple. If socialism is so much better, why not just start businesses in America where everyone gets an equal share and an equal vote. You can give Stan the janitor full voting privileges if you like. So, why on earth would you force everyone else to do that if you and your socialist buddies can already do exactly what you want? Which makes it clear that you mainly want the wealth of others. After that rubs out, socialism is too dysfunctional to maintain a 1st world modern living standard. Why on earth would you want to enforce this entirely inefficient and weak system that would make life worse for the vast majority of people?

@thethirdman225 - Scandanavis is a social democracy, which is a capitalist welfare state. Sweden has one of the highest concentration of billionaires in the world, that isn't socialism.

@ramenbomberdeluxe4958 - No. They universally failed because they were unworkable systems, as clearly demonstrated in economics. You are like someone who says Einsteins theories of gravity are wrong because you don't like how it sounds. No one cares about a tankie opinion, seriously, no one. Science and empirical data has clearly demonstrated it doesn't work from theory alone, even before it is implemented and you end up with a dictator. How are you guys so slow on this? Believe in a flat earth too?
