Wow, so they finally got the right people to lead the socialist utopia. Awesome! /s
The Left always needs the Right to come in and fix everything. The cycle repeats.
Or rather, they want it to produce what it was designed to produce, the disintegration of society and the concomitant descent into anarchy.
At that point, the architects will seize power by force, dispose of the citizens, and assume dominion over the remainder of creation.
Or as Rush used to say...”The right people weren’t in charge” (as to why socialism failed).
New York City is about to learn a hard lesson as to why “Laffer’s Curve proves Socialism isn’t Funny.”
“Arthur Laffer’s analysis is correct: lowering taxes raises revenue and grows the economy.”
Castro had an island of his own and lived to be 90 and never did get socialism to work.

So, collectivism is political diabetes. Keep pumping the insulin until the patient dies.
The promise of free chit is beguiling. Desperate and failing and abused people crave it to rescue them. By the time socialists have wrecked the economy completely the failure of conservatives to immediately correct that is viewed as yet another failure.
What is the distinction between socialism and communism? I can’t see much if any at all.
