Another reason not to go to Chicago.
Will they address the murder rate while they are there?
Will the esteemed Rahm Emanuel attend?

They’ve misnamed their conference. It should be called the “Naively Destroy All that is Good in the World” conference.

If socialism couldn’t work in Venezuela, how the hell do they expect it to work in Chicago.

People who go to these for the most part don’t even know what they’re supporting. They’re the hipsters or goths that are only looking to do something different from the rest.

In other words, they generally just freakin’ losers overall...

One of the problems I have with Socialists is that they want to make “the bird” the national symbol and the “F bomb” the national anthem.

>>Send them to Venezuela.

That would be the best way to teach them the stupidity of their ideology.

A bunch of Socialists who can afford to spring for a $24 daily parking rate.

">>Send them to Venezuela.

------------------

The children of the upper middle class who are revolting against their fortunate upbringing.

Yes, a month or three in Venezuela might open their eyes, but they would likely come home to tell us all why they didn't do it right down there and they would create a utopia here in their homeland. While they will all be hoping to be a part of the chosen few on top of the dung heap they create.

For the most part you can't fix this kind of blind and stupid.

It’s always the leaders of the revolution that get executed first when one of their co-leaders takes total control

Send them to Venezuela.

Airfare is cheap and there are a wide range of pre-built governments out there to choose from. For the price of attending this conference they could already be there.

Dear Socialists, as far as I’m concerned you may eat a turd burger, a large order of turdfries while sipping on a jumbo pukeshake.

Followed by a Was-Once-Apples Fied Pie.

Then for fun why don’t you down a 5lb bag of surgery free Haribo Bears just before getting on a cargo plane full of Japanese wasps?
