If this were required reading in public schools we wouldn’t have any of the nonsense going on today but of course, that’s the whole point.
Instead “White Privilege” is the featured reading material. And revisionist history books by Howard Zinn.
Under capitalism some people are poor.
Under socialism everyone is poor.
It would be nice if the execrable 1619 Project were replaced with Rubin's book.
I am AntiCom
Take away their cell phones and see if they like Socialism.
And there isn’t anything “artisanal” or “organic” in socialist countries
He should, because one way or another, it would.
Met a leftist at a nightclub before “shutdown”. She wanted our country to be socialist, “Like Norway!”. Setting aside the inaccuracy of her claim, I asked if she knew where the money for its social programs (esp. medical) came from. She advised the answer was “Whaling.” Not North Sea Oil, but Whaling. Good Lord. She was a professor at our local university...
Necessary learning. However, the title is going to repel a lot of students. You’d get more eyeballs if you titled it, “Listen, Stupid.” Such is the state of the millennial American mind.
socialized medicine:
YOUNG PATIENTS: become foolish dependent parasites, who increase overall costs by demanding too much, but because of doctor shortages, get less quantity of care per individual and lower quality care
OLD PATIENTS: are deemed worthless and useless, and so are denied care by death panels to cut costs, and become helpless sacrificial victims
DOCTORS: get more and more government controls to cut costs, and because of increased shortages of doctors, they become overworked and underpaid useful idiot slaves.Under these conditions, a doctor shortage occurs because a career in medicine becomes unacceptable to any normal rational person with high self esteem,. who refuses to be a slave.
GOVERNMENT: increases overall costs by increasing the size of the socialized medicine bureaucracy, and so government must cut costs by controlling doctors' fees, and doctors' treatments, and so becomes an uncaring, cruel, tyrannical monopoly. This causes a doctor shortage by making a medical career unacceptable to a normal rational person with high self esteem. To cut costs, government also must increase spending, increase budget deficits, increase national debt, increase taxes, and increase government borrowing. All of these are harmful to the economy in the long run, which harms the standard of living of the average worker. Government also must increase creation of money out of thin air, which increases aggregate demand, which increases prices,which decreases average real wage rates, which decreases the standard of living of the average worker.
They indeed will "Pack the Supreme Court", add D.C. and P.R. as new states with 4 new Dem Senators, to maintain permanent control.
They will also decimate the 1st and 2nd Amendments.
They will destroy Medicare by adding millions of illegal immigrants to the rolls.
Will Americans just sit by, or will there be a CWII?
Socialism works well for the political class and its hangers-on, especially with regard to positional goods. The advocates of socialism in the U.S. today are all implicitly assuming that they will be members of, at least, the Outer Party. Most of them will be disappointed, but they won’t discover that until after the revolution.
Superb summary for low attention span millennials and others of similar ilk. There is ample data to support every statement.
Taxes on EVERYONE will go up 20%. And the masses really need to be told ‘when Government controls your healthcare, denial of care is the standard’. Cancer patients in Britain are dying because they haven’t been able to get treatment since the Covid outbreak. DYING DUE TO DENIAL OF CARE.
Leftists are such evil liars.
The advocates of socialism in the U.S. today are all implicitly assuming that they will be members of, at least, the Outer Party...
That includes the MSM.
Ever heard of a rich powerful member of the Venezuelan media?
Public school kids should be taught the history of the last 30 years of Venezuela.
Easy to understand cause and effect.
Professor in Dentistry ?
Shoulda told her they got the money from clubbing... baby seals.
(I just ordered it.)
