Essential Economics for Politicians

Hey screw you and your delusional bullshit. That is not the case at all - what a load of crap!!!! The Military is Socialism you moron! The United States military is the largest and most funded socialist program in the world. It operates thanks to our taxpayer dollars and protects the country as a whole. From the richest citizens to the homeless who sleep under the bridge. We are all protected by our military whether we pay taxes or not. This is complete socialism. So are our schools, Police and Fire Departments, Garbage collection, roadways, CIA, FBI, Libraries, Prison system, student loans, public parks, court system, medicaid, FDA, CDC...etc.
What is clear about you is your total hypocrisy when it comes to government spending. Like most conservatives government spending is good when it benefits them directly but if it helps anyone else then you rail against it.

You cowards fail to see the diff between earned and entitled. Youʻve always been a COWARD and continue to prove it with your own post as you condemn ALL service members. Shame on you COWARD.

Oh poor baby, seems you are hurt and stewing, poor thing. Your cowardice has been on display for years in here, and it's only gotten worse. People like you and your fellow buffoons in here are the worst kind of cowards, you are afraid of truth. You avoid it like the plague. You have made up your own world, one you can feel safe in and blame"others" for all the world's ills. You are a pussy.

Bootsie missed the part about the military being an all voluntary force. We are actually ramping up for another force reduction. Bootsie is about as clueless as they come.

Izzy, the Military is Socialism. It doesn't matter if it's voluntary. Police, firemen, dog catchers and garbage collectors are all voluntary services and are all Socialism. And there is nothing wrong with it. It's just funny to see you rail against Socialism when the majority of your life has been sponsored by Socialism. Your reaction to this being pointed out to you is even funnier (I was in the Military and you weren't so you hate all servicemen and are a COWARD. LOL!!!). I suppose one explanation is you, like the other nutters in here, really don't understand Socialism. Or you are a hypocrite. Maybe it's a combination of the two.

Socialism.

There is nothing more feared and hated in America.

The word alone sends shivers down the spine of the American people.

Those three syllables conger up images of Big Brother Government ruling over us all, telling us what to eat, wear, buy, and think. Our children in national uniform being indoctrinated with propaganda in government education camps that use to be schools, turning them into little slaves. While their parents work twelve hour shifts in the concentration camp that slaughters rich successful billionaires, as the poor and needy get a million dollars a month in welfare. A murderous government waging a war against freedom and liberty to gain complete control over everyone and everything.

You know, the way things were under that socialists Bill Clinton and Barack Obama.

They imagine the USSR and how Democrats are turning America into it because our government will give money to poor people so they don't starve to death. (Giving money to billion dollar corporations is NOT socialism somehow. You would be a communist and a hippie to think otherwise.)

Socialism is alive and well in America and it has been here for a very long time!

Oh, that's not all. it gets much worse! I hope your sitting down...

As it turns out, You love socialism and you use it everyday, and you may not even know it! It may have even saved your life. I know, this is bad...

Now relax and breath. It's going to be okay! We are going to get through this.

You see, we are still a capitalist nation. In America, you can still make a billion dollars, get a giant tax cut, and pay your employees barely enough to survive while you sail in your yacht to escape any guilt that might inconvenience you. So don't freak out just yet!

The thing is, socialism is all over America and people actually like it. Even you Izzy... Yes you!

I know, I know. You're a conservative that believes in freedom and the constitution. You hate handouts and believe in hard work and the individual. You think government should get out of the way and let you live your lives and allow you to prosper on your own. You know that all rich people must have worked hard and all poor people are lazy. There is no other reason why they could be poor considering life is completely fair and all people are born into situations and environments that allow them to have all the opportunities and blessings that you had. There is no fathomable way they could have 2 or 3 jobs they work very hard at but still can't make ends meet. You got it all figured out.

But still, even you get your kicks from a little socialism every now and then.

Don't think of this as an intervention, think of it as a coming out of the closet party. We know you are a closet socialist. It's okay, you are amongst friends and we support you. Besides, we always knew...

Socialism is taxpayer funds being used collectively to benefit society as a whole, despite income, contribution, or ability.

Sounds horrible, huh?
