    Clarify your comments. Are you trying to speak for and about ALL teachers in the entire country? Could your grasp of logic be so tenuous?

    US education system sucks and indoctrinate students to the point they can’t help themselves but turn Liberals. Sadly, not all recover from Liberalism with age.

    What would it 'cost' you to live in a country where only a very few had any education at all?

    Only the ones with economic access to North Sea Oil. In other words, socialism works ONLY as long as there is a permanent outside source of income. No outside source no permanent socialism. Oh and it also doesn't work if said nation actually maintains a meaningful standing army -- not just a 'for show' military.

    Pssst . . . you do not turn millions into billions by avoiding hard work. The one thing all business people have in common is that they work long hours. Leftists have been drinking waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much propaganda Kool-aid.

    Yes that's what happens under socialistm

    Yes that's what happens under socialism/communism.

    Capitalism didn't destroy American leaders who are trying to instill socialism have certainly hurt her and will turn us into one of the above mentioned states if they have their way. The only people who benefit from socialism are the socialist how grab the political power which now controls everything.

    You understand ;)

    Tell me why do you think our socialist will be more benevolent than the Russian socialist or NK socialist or the Chinese socialist

    If we all benefit, why do some pay to get the benefit and others don't pay? Shouldn't those that don't pay give something in return?

    Just punching a clock, putting in your 9 to 5, taking all your breaks, and leaving work behind when you take off for the day isn't enough?

    Ha! My boss is in his early eighties and he still puts in twelve hour days in the business that he founded. The only lazy wealthy person I've ever met not only inherited that wealth but had absolutely no interest in making it grow.

    My friend,

    I don’t feel like educating you. Sufficed to say, socialism is a killer of freedom, initiative and entrepreneurship.

    And no, Nordic countries do not have socialism; at best, they could be called compassionate capitalism. They were wealthy and economically successful before they started experimenting with socialism and created welfare states. In reality the Nordic countries practice mostly free market economics paired with high taxes exchanged for generous government entitlement programs.

    And I do know what I’m taking about; I also know it is useless to argue with Liberal. :nana:

    And U.S. capitalism only worked prior to fracking due to theft of outside oil owned by other countries, like Iraq. Now U.S. capitalism has its sights set on Venezuelan oil. So what's your point again?

    Yes. There are only two reasons people will work, to better themselves or if compelled to do so. With Socialism removing the first incentive by equalizing outcome, Socialist governments are left with only coercion.

    But most rank and file socialists are wholly ignorant of this. Socialism sounds good to them as an easier, non-competitive path to a comfortable life, not realizing that the “easy” socialist life is one of coercion, starvation and rampant disease.

    The political leaders who seek to establish and maintain socialist states are motivated by greed and a lust for power. The socialist kleptocracy grows richer while the masses grow ever poorer. Some use their position to horde money others, like Stalin, Mao, Hitler and Pol Pot used socialist control to free their sadistic impulses.

    The lesson of 20th century is that Utopians are Murderers.

    What does that have to do with "we all benefit"?
    Seems you want to benefit at other peoples expense.

    Seems you're jealous that others have more than you and you want to cut them down.
