This was pretty darned good.

Millenials scare me, as much as I like many of them. They really don't grasp how awful socialism is. And as Maha Rushi pointed out on the radio last week to an ignorant young skull of mush, Scandanavia is beginning to wake up to the unsustainability of its system.

The Democrats have a big problem -- they need to torpedo Bernie and push Hillary as their nominee. This can be done in two ways:

1) Blatant disregard of Hillary's obvious crimes.
2) Dirty tricks to kill Bernie's campaign which is clearly better and more popular than Hillary's campaign.

Young people are going to see this. What will young people think about how the Democrats' operate?

, Scandanavia is beginning to wake up to the unsustainability of its system.

There is a book Scandinavian Unexceptionalism: Culture, Markets and the Failure of Third-Way Socialism by Nima Sanandaji, out now about the Scandinavian countries. In the book, he establishes that those countries first made a lot wealth before they instituted their socialist systems.

Since they put in the socialist practices, they've actually done a lot worse to the point where some of them are now reversing the course and throwing out a lot of the socialist economics for a more free-market system.

Norway continues on its socialist path because of the great amount of money it's making off their oil. When the oil runs out, their system will start going bankrupt as well. Since they've started making economic reforms, Denmark is now rated a better free-market country than the U.S. Take that Bernie Sanders. Put that it into your socialist pipe and smoke it.
