    Did you guys hear what was just said on Hannity? It was great: "The Goal of Socialism is Communism."

    This saying pretty much kills the Democrat Socialist Left.

    Capitalism works best when it works for the middle class, and has some rules and guidance on how to behave.

    I honestly think crony capitalism is a large part of the attraction to leftist causes. Way, way, way too many people who fly the conservative flag refer to crony capitalism as being free market as do leftists. One side claims anyone calling it a sham is just jealous and lazy while the other side claims they will fix it which has been proven to be false also.
    Agreed. Crony capitalism is the Third Reich to a T.

    Don't take this too far, but a lot of "anti-communists" are pro-cronyists. Buy our wares, be our middlemen, but it is against the law to boycott or question us.

    There are days when the dollar sign sickens me as much as the hammer and sickle.

    I actually wouldnt be pissed every tax season IF I HAD SOMETHING TO SHOW FOR IT.

    The streets are in shit shape, most cops are milquetoast and those that aren't have their hands tied, the correctional system is corrupt, and I have to pay while some fat bitch gets to live rent free and pop out all the future criminals her tainted womb can pop out.

    I actually felt sorrier or the Alien Queen in Aliens than I do for the ALL TOO REAL alien queens not learning english, bringing over TB, and letting Julio have some anchors whike he gets his cartel on.

    The schools aren't allowed to kick out kids anymore so the little thuggy jrs can keep real kids from learning while they impregnate more welfare queens.

    I no longer hide my power level. Every time I see some fat bitch with a haul of the good-good shit at the market and she whips out that Peach, SNAP, "Independence" or EBT card....I heartily say "YOU'RE WELCOME" as shitty as I can.

    All thanks to "Capitalism", MAGA, and being "compassionate"

    If we could jail or sanction Soros, The Rothschilds, and go back to stakeout squads in the hood then we might get somewhere.

    Also Reagan was a power tool and the only sketch thing he did I kinda agreed with was arming Right Wing Death Squads in Latin America.

    He didn't kill the Soviets, they went broke and we would have too if we kept dumping money into shit that didn't work and wasn't going to happen.

    But keep wearing the Republican Beer Goggles....one day you might get your clean streets and humble neighbors if you keeping voting at them....

    And what's the solution to all these problems? The system is only as good as the people involved with it...the problem is "us".

    Maybe, but no one in recent history has actually tried a real free-market economy. We do live in a crony-capitalist country precisely because the government is involved to the extent that it is. Why is the government involved? Same reason people clamor for more gun laws - they don't trust themselves or are too lazy to be responsible personally. As long as you make it everyone's problem, it's somehow less your problem. Any government, whether socialist or faux-capitalist, will always be used as a tool by those with "more". The only way around that is to not involve the government, or at least really limit its involvement.

    Pretty obvious a lot of "anti-communists" are pro-cronyists.

    Never been to Latin America, but most everything I have read on it leads me to believe they really double down on the crony capitalism.
