the President BARACK OBAMA: "I think for your generation, you should be practical and just choose from what works. You don't have to worry about whether it neatly fits into socialist theory or capitalist theory -- you should just decide what works." Buenos Aires, Argentina / March 23, 2016

He must have missed school that day. But this is how Communist try t sell their BS. It's not until it's too late that you realize you've been swindled.

BTW, I took the headline from a blog that we not allowed to post here.

Except that socialist/communist regimes murdered at least 94 million people in the 20th century alone.

“Medical care is the keystone in the arch of socialism... Democracy is indispensable to socialism... The goal of socialism is communism... Hatred is the basis of communism.” —Vladimir Lenin

Except that communism cannot survive without a capitalist boogie man to feed off of. If America goes full communist, communism is dead.

Not much difference I guess between North and South Korea.

That is like saying there is no Difference between Orange Juice and Motor Oil.

They are both Liquids I guess......

Just decide what works???

Nazism worked. Communism worked. Every totalitarian society in history has “worked” so to speak, in that, you have a system of government and how society and the economy were structured.

I disagree with Obama. You don’t just pick “what works”.

And then there is the issue of who decides “what works”. So who decides, elites such as Obama? The people through elections in a constitutional republic, which by definition will not be as efficient as other systems??? Who decides what the criteria are? Elitists like Obama and Hillary Clinton????

Spoken like a true Constitutional scholar. Smh.

Communism is no utopia without the weath-to-spread-around coming from Capitalism. (See the NORKs)

“You don’t have to worry about whether it neatly fits into socialist theory or capitalist theory — you should just decide what works.”

So, kiddies, whatever Obama has done...do the opposite, because he’s the anti-Midas: everything that he touches turns to $hit.

[JBW1949]

That is an excellent example...Bravo!!!!!!

[ChiefJayStrongbow]

I think what he means is there is a lot of corruption in the ruling class who don’t give a rat’s ass about the wishes of the governed.

[Right-wing Librarian]

>>ou don’t have to worry about whether it neatly fits into socialist theory or capitalist theory — you should just decide what works.”

He obviously picked what didn’t and doesn’t work for US, but DID work for HIM.

[trisham]

Everything that springs from his lips is a lie.

[Wolfie]

Capitalism or Crony Capitalism? Because we have the latter, and he’s not far off on that.

[Pollster1]

Anyone who is surprised at this Obama speech in favor of treason and tyranny has not been paying attention.

We are truly blessed. (sarcasm)

[MichaelCorleone]

Communism is no different than CRONY capitalism.

[Salvavida]

There are millions of bodies piled up through human history because of said little difference.

For a thief.
