Bernie Sanders is just wrong. If any nation can be credited with doing the most to solve poverty worldwide it is the United States of America.

Oh, and we didn't massacre tens of millions of people to do it.

Exactly. Capitalism has helped more people out of poverty than any other system on earth. China’s economy relies on coercion and slave labor.

Oh, I think Bern is all for PRC’s methods of population control. You can eliminate a ton of poverty by just eliminating the poor (for which most Chinese would be fair game).

Great post.

And true.

I would assume being free of communism’s grasp would help with that.

And Ronald Maximus was responsible for freeing Scores of MILLIONS from communism’s grasp.

Most don’t appreciate what an INCREDIBLE thing he did.

I NEVER, EVER thought the USSR would disintegrate in my lifetime. And I was only 24 at the time.

I know a lot of people call Trump “best President” ever.

In my lifetime I would see a tie for first but Reagan comes second to no one. He brought our biggest and longest enemy to its knees.

Without firing a shot.

That’s both right and wrong depending on historical perspective.

Someone ought to send Bernie some books about the mass starvation during the Great Leap Forward. Hey, but what’s 45 million people or so, they’re only Chinese.

The US consumer and Walmart solved the poverty in China.

Such an important point.

If the U. S. hadn’t gone all in, China would still be 50-75 years in the past on almost everything.

Very few of it’s citizens would have crawled out of poverty either.

Sanders is a dumb ass. Here’s another point.

China is using Capitalism to better it’s bottom line.

Hear that Bernie? NOT SOCIALISM!!!
