Continued talk about socialism in the US is a demonstration of the utter stupidity of the right.
The retardlican party has demonised the term so that the mere use of it to describe anything gets its supporters squealing like a stuck pig.
You don't have socialism in the US. The US is one of the most right wing nations on earth
The reason it is in the financial shit is because the bankers stole huge amounts of money under Bush and it started two hugely expensive and illegal wars under the same retard who also gave massive tax breaks to the rich.
This created the biggest deficit in history and the democrats had to pick up the mess
The retardlicans have scuppered almost all efforts to fix it.
This is because they don't give a fuck about the US or its citizens
They just care about the rich
And they sell this shit to the morons who support them by creating bete noirs such as socialism and individual responsibility.
The fact that their supporters buy this demonstrates their epic levels of ignorance and stupidity.
But then most of them believe in creation and don't believe in climate change so it shouldn't come as much of a surprise.
BTW all the US needs to do to get the deficit down is stop attacking other countries and stop spending on arms
All that is true. What on earth do they MEAN by 'socialism' anyway? They seem to be talking about the actions of their capitalist State, which is owned totally by the very rich, to fight their imperial wars for them. Socialism is rule by the people who work. Do no Americans do that thing?
