Socialism is just a smokescreen to put different guys in the government limousines and the palace.

After a lot of death.

He is actually correct, which is why the founding fathers chose a representative republican form of government instead of democracy.

As the cliche goes, "Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for dinner."

We stili live in a REPUBLIC. A democracy is two wolves and a sheep deciding on a dinner menu.

Paraphrased over the centuries:

“A Democracy will survive until the people realized they can vote themselves an ever increasing share of the public treasury.”

Well Ron Paul isn’t running this time. His supporters have to go somewhere. Spending all their college money.

The founding fathers didn't envision that the representatives would become so few in relation to the populace, or so remote, or so privileged. In short, I believe they didn't contemplate the possibility of an elected nobility.

To the Pinkos, “democracy” means letting the subjects pick which Party official will be spokesperson for the politburo

Karl Marx HATED the middle class.

The Communist Manifesto is a how to manual for destroying the middle class.

But you middle class Marxists just love Bernie and his Marxist ideas.

If I was Sanders, I’d be smiling in every picture too. :)

Sanders is a neanderthal - spouting a failed 19th century ideology.

Yeah, he’s just for “economic democracy” to go along with the “political democracy” that we supposedly already enjoy.

That’s the way true socialists and communists talk and think.
