    socialism and other collectivist diseases have affirmatively killed over 100 million innocents.
    there is no thing as "unfettered deregulated capitalism, You are tilting at windmills that have not existed in centuries

    socialism is often an illness caused by envy and a lack of ambition. Its well liked by those who blame everyone and everything but themselves for their inability to achieve

    Have you not been paying attention? :eek:

    St Reagan DEREGULATED the Savings & Loans and we had the S&L crisis.

    The GOP Contract ON America DEREGULATED corporate America and we had the Enron/Arthur Anderson, et al scams.

    The GOP DEREGULATED the Wall Street Casino and we had the 2008 economic collapse.

    Every time the Republican/Libertarian "free market" dogma of DEREGULATION is enacted by the GOP we have economic problems in this nation.

    What on earth do you primitive weirdoes mean by 'winners'? Somebody who can make s sharper stone axe, I suppose. Why don't you go back to where you belong - swinging in the trees, I imagine. There are no winners and no need for winners. All you are going to do in the finish, silly person, ius die.

    Unfortunately, with our current administration the United States will be to weakened by idiocy to act on NK until we are forced to by their actions. Likely many people will pay the ultimate price for the distraction posed by the Trump nightmare. Even then our rebuttal will probably be delayed, inept, and full of unintended consequences.
    Trump has been the absolute opposite of the Strong, Deal making, Powerhouse he pretended he was.

    "primitive weirdos" are people who don't demand others pay for their existence. How Orwellian of you

    I am not worried about convincing those who try to justify why grown adults should spend their lives sucking on the public teat. its for those who actually want to cast aside being children and wards of the state

    The children are those who still believe in fairy tales about "benevolent" capitalism.

    make all the excuses you want to make for failing in the most prosperous society in the world. we just laugh at those who clamor for socialism and pretend its based on altruism rather than envy

    Social Democracy works for the citizens of Germany.

    Unfettered capitalist greed is NOT working for We the People of America.

    Those are irrefutable facts!

    Get back to us when you can prove otherwise.

    we don't have unfettered capitalist greed. so try again

    and prove we do or don't make such silly claims

    the real greed is from left wing politicians who want to take the wealth of the productive to buy the votes of people like you

    if you don't like it here, why not move? they have what you want over there. a cradle to grave nanny state and silly gun control laws. sounds like paradise for someone who believes as you do

    I wish we had unregulated capitalism. but we haven't for at least a century. we have welfare-socialism that creates and maintains a parasite class that exists on wealth coerced from others

    remind me where you have proved anything. so typical to demand others meet standards of debate you refuse to rise to.
