Essential Economics for Politicians

Man people bought a lot of stuff with that counterfeit money. And I even made a lot of money on the counterfeit money! My ambassador friend who was a “Bush Pioneer” fundraiser even made me whole on a Fla. real estate deal that tanked for us in ‘08. Did he use fake money? Do I have to give any of it back? You must not have gotten any...is that why you talk about it all the time?

Once again you prove your filthy nature....Mr NH4OH.
 
Decrying the ills of capitalism on a placard or in a newspaper headline is a trend with little sign of going away any time soon, but when we see such unsubstantiated claims, we should remember; the data simply doesn’t support the anti-capitalists.

You seem to be stuck on some idea you've been fed, like always, that commies are everywhere. Such a sad, sheltered life you live . . . but of course you can't afford anything else.

I actually agree with Iz on the current anti-Capitalism sentiment being expressed on the left. I may not agree with his specific reasoning, but there is a ton of ignorance being expressed on both sides of the isle when it comes to Economics, Socialism and Capitalism. The biggest mistake is mistakenly calling Social Democracy, Democratic Socialism and that's mostly Bernie's fault.

Could you please tell me who has an actual socialist agenda and the size of the electorate that supports them and that idea wholeheartedly? . . . and how even if elected POTUS would that agenda get through congress, either the House or the Senate? There are borderline nazis in and around our government but I don't feel we will turn nazi soon . . . against t and some of his fools greatest hopes.

We already have a national military, the best public roads in the world, many public water supplies, some public power generation (usually associated with public flood control and irrigation), Social Security, Medicare and similar public health programs, a progressive income tax system, public regulation of banks and other financial institutions -- heaven forbid we should turn socialist.
