  5. the fact you try that argument shows why you are not qualified for this discussion there is no GOVERNMENT IMPOSED minimum wage but you have to understand that we have some of the strongest unions this side of the galaxy which raise wages SIGNIFICANTLY

  7.  @smaimth  "Democratic Socialism wants to replace the Capitalist system with Socialism using Democratic method" actually not true, that would be fabian socialism, democratic socialism is not the same, democratic socialism is more about how the system is to work after capitalism is overthrown weather by vote or revolution it does not matter

  12.  @xyphoon5013  the US will crumble under the last throws of fury that lash out from its dying capitalism as it decays into fascism yet again in the pathetic attempt to extend the life of the blood sucking monster of exploitation only before the people rise up and start a new age of cooperation setting the scene for the next stage of mankind where we become released from the shackles of our own design only to fight against the very laws of nature that oppress us, spreading through the galaxy and discovering the true foundations of physics and its limitations

  13. if you only count together the social democracies in the EU you still tally more than 300 million citizens either way the US already spends twice as much of its GDP on healthcare than any nation on earth thats exactly 18%, germany is 9% and denmark uses 8%

  14. its a linguistic thing, in america democratic socialism is an umbrella term that encompass social democracy so its not that funny, its actually kind of degrading to the american culture that their education is so bad that the majority of its population knows nothing about political terminology

  23.  @savvysavages6931  if under the american system i pay 100 units of money to get my foot healed thats 100 units of money if in the socialized healthcare system i pay out taxes through the year and it adds up to 60 units of money and i go to the hospital that year with a broken leg, i have saved money look at it this way, by nationalizing it you cut out the middle men, the accountants, the paperwork to do, the ceos and stock holders and all that the US spends 18% of its gdp on healthcare as is germany which is on the higher end uses 9% while denmark uses 8% one is clearly cheaper to run, and in social democracies it covers everyone for everything! in the US loads of people avoid going or go and the insurance decides they dont cover the specific thing its costing your people a lot

  44. sadly so many dont understand this concept

  45. if you dont go to collage yourself you still benefit, a higher educated country means conditions improve and there is less demand in low skilled labor which drives up wages in those fields, not only does the country improve around you but you get payed more

    1
  50. most people here are taxed 38-39% how is that sky high? if you know so well what to do with your money then are you in favor of tax funded roads? do you think you would be better at managing the roads between the places you go between?
    1
  51. how did that work out for a dictator? uhhh yea, not well, good thing denmark is not run by a dictator and bernie does not advocate for turning america into a dictatorship

  57. depends, are you outside a refugee housing unit yelling it and holding a a sign with some other shit on it? no you cant i wish you could so that you could go ahead and get killed for doing something that so obviously would get you killed rasmus paludan is a racist politician who goes to refugee neighborhoods and does shit like this, the police have spent millions of tax dollars on him already to protect him from getting attacked for destroying the holy book and shit like that its a waste of tax money to spare his life
