Only a snag dole bludger Drongo, would think posting a video, of people defending themselves, (which of course is not shown) is equal to 1,000's of cell phone videos of Thieves, Arsonists,  and Violent people, that call themselves, Antifa/BLM/protesters..

And Ding-Dong/Ho-Ho, er Biden/Harris, DEFENDS and SUPPORTS them !

It is aimed at people's well being. The USA is an example of such. We have the most prosperous society in history. No one starves to death in the US. The vast majority of the homeless are in that position because of mental illness, not due to lack of economic opportunity. In the US, obesity is often an indication of poverty as calories are as low priced here as anywhere.

A financial system aimed at financial equality is socialism and its variation which all inevitable lead to the opposite.

Some European counties often get the label of socialist but as someone who works for a very capitalistic Swedish company, I promise you Sweden and neighboring nations are as competitive from an economics / business point of view as anyone.

Saying capitalism is responsible for poverty is like saying more people have been killed in wars because of religion that all other reasons combined. Both are foolish statements.

What a difference it would make if the financial system aimed at people's well-being.  That would make politics completely redundant.

Kinna like Venezuela ?
Where the Gimme, Gimme, skyrocketed when Oil was high.
Then when it was low, the massive social spending of the Chavez, Socialist regime, plunged Venezuela to great depths.
Now it is well on it's way to be a full blown Dictatorship !

Same direction the USA is headed.

Unless the 'real' Democrats pull their head out of their AZZ,
and STOP,
THE ULTRA LIBERAL, FAIRY DUST SPRINKLING, DUMB F&%^EN IDIOTS,
FROM ALLOWING THE LINING, OF
Ding-Dong/Ho-Ho's (And all of their, 'good', buddies) POCKETS.

Just like Chavez  DID,
and Maduro is DOING !

Watch the movie Mr. Jones. It's about a reporter who asked the question why is Communist Russia so economically prosperous in the middle of the Great Depression. So he goes to Moscow to interview Joseph Stalin and learns about the The Ukrainian famine—known as the Holodomor, from an associate who mysteriously turns up dead.
Then he sneaks into Ukraine to see for himself.

When he returns with his news the lefty news media cancels him. And to this day the event is still unknown to most of the world due to the revisionist Communist loving left who've worked hard to keep it out of education and even now work to downplay its actual history by misreporting the death toll. They're the holocaust deniers of the Communists.

Its the reason I'm here too. My great grandparents somehow managed to escape it into Poland and then to the US.

To make their Socialism economically viable Stalin resorted to man-made famines that killed millions and millions of innocent people.

Because the concept is inherently broken. The economics of it as defined by Marx and Engels is foundationally flawed. Meaning it can't be fixed. It can be propped up and made to look functional but usually at great human cost and only for awhile before inevitability rears its ugly head.

People who believe this broken crap are themselves broken. And also guilty by association to crimes against humanity on a scale the mind cannot begin to comprehend. Whether they know it or not. And for the one's that do know it ought to be imprisoned for life.
Or at the very least exiled to Venezuela.

Why we suffer to let these fools live among us is unimaginable. They're the ones wrecking this country and making a mockery of our legal system while brainwashing the uncritical thinking masses into believing the most absurdly contradictory bullcrap ever invented.

It's a matter of scale. For Socialism to be made functional temporarily in a country as big as ours their only option will be famines like in Russia and China. The larger the population the bigger the famines death toll needs to be in order to balance the books.
In China the death toll was so great they used the dead for fertilizer.
Mmmm Chinese take-out.

But seriously though there's a proportional link to population size and necessary death toll to make Marxist Socialism workable for any length of time. It's an economic system with human blood for its currency.

Go Burnie!

It seems relatively unbiased despite using the lowest death toll estimates. The high estimates go up to 9 million but the Israeli government throws tantrums of any death toll estimates that exceed those of the holocaust.

A interesting idea.
I believe that the wide sweeping, 'famines', can not happen here.
Because the people in the 'Country' will very easily fend for themselves and not be even close to starving.

I believe it is the people that live Inside the Beltways of the Cities, (those who have not, already have succumbed to Socialism), will succumb to, 'Starving'.

It is often said, in Many places, many times.
Take 1,000 people at random from inside the beltways of a City,
Put them in the country,
only 100 will walk out.

Take 1,000 people from Outside the beltway of a city,
Put them in the Country, woods, desert, OR City,
900 will walk out !

So if Socialism, engulfs the USA.
THEN, their will be a PHYSICAL WAR !
