Lifestyles of the Rich and Socialist: From Chavez to Castro, leaders who lived the high life
Socialist leaders come to power promising to equalize society.
But, in the words of George Orwell's "Animal Farm," their followers soon learn "some are more equal than others."
American democratic socialists have faced scrutiny for their own indulgences under the capitalist system -- for instance, Sen. Bernie Sanders has three homes and a proclivity for private jet travel.
But American socialists' luxuries pale in comparison to those of history's most infamous socialist and communist leaders around the world.

The famous former barmaid turned Socialist, Casio Cortex, is proof of this. She started working on her first million the day she showed up in the District of Corruption.
Why did you post that craizness here?
Socialism doesn’t balance society, it creates wealth for those in charge as they are in control of it all. Only true communism can balance society but it is not possible to be implemented as 1, someone has to be in charge which violates it’s theology, and 2. a large enough of the population want to improve themselves and there aren’t enough Lamborghinis to go around for everyone. (Or enough ubers), and, 3. someone has to work to support the system and they can’t all be paid the same as a deep sea diver takes more chances than a pizza delivery person (Maybe).

Warren and Sanders are typical Socialists. Rich and want to make sure they keep their money and you lose yours supporting their inane ideas.

In other parts of the video, which surfaced late Monday, she talked about her life in Washington, DC, as a new member of Congress, calling it super weird.
Here in DC its like, so weird. Its like everybody is like, a spy. Like, its so bizarre, she said.
Its like you could go out to get a coffee and the person thats, like, sitting at a table in the corner of the restaurant is like, you know, like, she said, as she made typing motions.
Then they go and, like, they text all of their friends that they saw so-and-so at this cafe and its like, triangulation, she continued. And its super weird.

Just look at pure communism where the state owns everything. You still have a political class where the bureaucrats and administrators that assume the role of aristocracy.
They may have less than capitalist moguls and aristocrats, but comparatively speaking the difference between them and the person on the street is even more stark. Just because the standard of living of everyone is stymied in a system where production is not rewarded doesn’t mean you can ever eliminate disparity and inequity, which are the tools being used to foment resentment for capitalism.
Don’t like your boss having a nicer car than you?
Try swapping your boss for someone with government authority to run your life. You have zero negotiating power with a bureaucrat.
Millennials are miseducated. Need to instruct them that socialism is not only not cool but is a social disaster. It is imperative to mock Sanders, AOC and the Democrats mercilessly.
The title for the article on the FoxNews home page was different than the title after you clicked to open the article. I liked the home page title better, so linked to it, via the Wayback Machine website. The home page changes throughout the day, so I locked into today’s page by copying the article to Wayback Machine web archive, and linked to it instead. Make sense?

Some of those higher ups in the Soviet Union lived pretty darn good while the rest of the masses were living 14 to an apartment.
