Several recent polls, plus the popularity of Sen. Bernie Sanders, demonstrate that young people prefer socialism to free market capitalism. That, I believe, is a result of their ignorance and indoctrination during their school years, from kindergarten through college. For the most part, neither they nor many of their teachers and professors know what free market capitalism is…

Tragically, two-thirds to three-quarters of the federal budget can be described as Congress taking the rightful earnings of one American to give to another American — using one American to serve another. Such acts include farm subsidies, business bailouts, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, food stamps, welfare and many other programs. Read the rest of this entry »

Posted by M. C. on May 10, 2018

But overall it is good to see the general strong objection to the notion to the paper that serves the rulers in the belly of the national beast

How nutty is the Bernie Sanders proposal to guarantee everyone in America a job?

So nutty that the economic columnist for the interventionist supporting Washington Post, Robert J. Samuelson, is attacking the idea.

Samuelson writes: Read the rest of this entry »

Remember the progressive government wars started in the 60’s that we are still fighting?

BY JOHN BOWDEN

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) is set to announce a federal jobs proposal that would guarantee a job with at least a $15-per-hour wage and health benefits to every adult American “who wants or needs one,” The Washington Post reports…

“The goal is to eliminate working poverty and involuntary unemployment altogether,” Darrick Hamilton, an economist at The New School, told the Post…

The war is the fault of one of the planet’s poorest countries, on the other side of the globe whom did not attacked US and does not poses such a threat to the US homeland.

At a Wednesday press conference, Senators Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Mike Lee (R-UT) unveiled the bipartisan Senate resolution which aims to force an end to the US military involvement in the Saudi-led invasion of Yemen.

The bill makes use of the 1973 War Powers Act, which allows any legislator to introduce a resolution which would compel a withdrawal from any conflict that was not specifically authorized by Congress in any Authorization for the Use of Military Force (AUMF). Neither of the two extent AUMFs have anything to do with the attack on Yemen’s Shi’ite Houthi movement… Read the rest of this entry »

Bernie’s Past With the Far Far Far Left

Posted by M. C. on June 30, 2017

http://www.thedailybeast.com/bernies-past-with-the-far-far-far-left

Sanders’ association with the radical left is varied—over many years of political development he came to be associated with the youth section of the Socialist Party; the Trotskyist Socialist Workers’ Party; the anti-war Vermont Liberty Union Party, and the left-wing People’s Party.
Bernie the Trotskyite.

Stalin was happy with a communist Russia. Trotsky wanted to communize the world. Papa Joe, as FDR called him, had an ice pick implanted in Trotsky’s head.

Trudeau, Papoulia, Corbyn, Sanders The World Is Going Socialist

Posted by M. C. on November 2, 2015

I have noticed the current tendency of western countries to go socialist. Canada is the latest, electing Trudeau the younger. He is losing no time following in the old man’s footsteps promising money for everything under the sun.

Greece’s president Karolos Papoulia, elected while Greece was in the middle of impending default, promised the people everything. Then when the EU made a fuss he was forced backed off or as much as a dedicated socialist is able.

The UK Labor party has elected a far left socialist, Jeremy Corbyn as it’s leader. Read the rest of this entry »
