#Sieve, at least it wasn't unanimous in the House a couple of weeks ago. I think there were 2 dissenting Democrats out of about 220. Thus; it could safely argue that only 99% of Democrats in favor of socialism over capitalism. What should be pointed out is that ending capitalism completely creates communism. Are you aligned with this goal and what is your specific preference, Socialism or Communism?
And this is why socialism is evil. They won't leave the rest of us alone to pursue our lives the way we wish to.
Much concern over a minority of the minority party. So you're certainly very concerned about the current administration actively taking stock in private companies and buddying up with communist dictators like Putin and Kim Jong Un?
Concerning the first, I don't think it's a minority in their respective party, and if it is, it's rapidly taking control. Secondly, the time to suppress evil is sooner rather later. Third, you're changing the subject because in no way did I ever say I approve of government owning private companies, which you seem to think I'm giving Trump a pass on, and fourth, I don't know what he's doing in terms of foreign affairs enough to comment on, and I don't know that you do either.
You don't think it's a minority, and you think it's rapidly "taking control"...based on what?
We saw what taking control of a political party looks like. It looks just like MAGA.
MAGA President, and a majority of Congress willing to lay down for whatever he wants to do, and those that don't (Massie, MTG) get railroaded out of their jobs.
What are you seeing that's even remotely like that with DSA?
Let us know when MAGA says they want open borders, abolish the Presidency and Senate, no prisons, no immigration enforcement…etc.
Big difference between MAGA and the DSA who campaign, vote and side with YOUR democrat party.
the big similarity is a desire for socialism, one party rule, and central government planning.
You need to elaborate on that…
As the populist left (DSA) and right (MAGA) move away from the traditional liberalism center, they increasingly arrive at the same place: less faith in free markets, consistent rules and institutional limits, and more faith in government control. They may disagree over who should be in charge and who should benefit, but both want Washington directing prices, investment, businesses, trade and even personal decisions. In the end, both protect favored interests, pass the costs along to consumers who may never see them and let Washington decide when competition is allowed.
Once Washington runs the economy, political power not workers, consumers or the nation becomes the real beneficiary. The race to bottom is going to achieve exactly what you despise.
Also both think the Jones Act is the tits
