Socialism works.
If you have any doubt about that, just ask Bernie Sanders.
He may not have made socialism great again, but he did all right for himself.
He just bought his third house, this time a $600,000, four-bedroom dacha on Lake Champlain in Vermont. It is in the town North Hero (get it?) that has a population of around 800.

This is how socialism works. The elite do great. It’s the unwashed masses who get the **** end of the stick.
Socialism works for everyone except those it’s supposed to work for.................
Just like those fighters for the Workers of the World in the old USSR, who lived in luxurious dachas while the workers lined up for blocks in hope of getting bread for their families. We’ve seen Socialism/Communism fail repeatedly and have no excuse for believing Bernie and Hillary peddling this utopian garbage. Our grievous error was sending our children to schools where this history is never taught.

That’s sulfur................
Akeksandr Solzhenitsen’s works should be given and taught to every high school kid in order for them to graduate,.
Socialism is a system of aristocratic privilege, court society, and servile masses. In socialism, the individual does not exist as an end in himself, but as the means to the ends of society. The ends of society are the ends of the rulers, so the individual is the means to the ends of the rulers.
I drive home from D.C. and get out to around Hagerstown when you finally start to see boarded-up homes and businesses again.
Then you know you’re back in the real world.
