Ain’t Socialism grand? The masses get a bunch of free goodies until the producers of those goodies realize that its not worth producing them and stop. Then the shelves are empty and no one has anything.

Yet a large percentage of Democrats support Bernie Sanders.

Don’t tell the university communists that. They think they are the smart ones who can make Socialism work, even though it has never succeeded anywhere for long. Margaret Thatcher said it best,” Socialism works until you run out of Other People’s Money.”

What’s going on now is Robert Mugabe’s Marxist-Leninist Communist Zimbabwe of 15 years ago in the Western Hemisphere.

Venezuela is now Cuba and moving towards North Korea.

Bernie Sanders is a piker compared to that, like a Norman Thomas democratic, anti-religious kind of Socialist.

Another Socialist “success” for our “feel the Bern” fans! The ignorant (required for socialism to gain power) masses get promised a bunch of free goodies (little is actually delivered)... as observed by OB, the producers of those goodies soon realize it’s not worth producing stuff that’s gonna be stolen... then the shelves are empty and the promises vaporize. Rationing (and tyranny) is soon instituted and all but the “rulers” live on little more than a subsistence existence. Socialism is the biggest Ponzi scam is history! Those at the top live LARGE, the rest notso good! As those in the “larceny class” tend to “redistribute” first and foremost to themselves... only a “trickle down” for the ignorant masses.

Note the Bern/Hillary fans... once you vote your liberty away, you don’t get it back!
