Reality: In this capitalistic REPUBLIC......no one is "forced" to purchase a damn thing (void of the exception when BIG BROTHER forces the consumer under penalty of fine and or imprisonment if they refuse to purchase a product of Government bureaucracy......the FORCED PURCHASE of unwanted or needed HEALTH CARE for the young and healthy citizenship of the U.S.)
An inconvenient truth: If you are poor in this nation and healthy......you are so because you have made some piss poor life decisions....period. No one in this nation of plenty has a valid excuse for being poor to the point they must depend upon the hard work of their neighbors for basic survival. This is common thread of all socialists....they are the self professed perpetual VICTIMS of other people's life decisions...NOT THEIR OWN.
Another "inconvenient truth" concerning SOCIALISM v. CAPITALISM: As stated and easily demonstrated via documented facts in evidence....."Socialism is philosophy of FAILURE (most recent on hands example in the real world v dream land? Venezuela....once the richest self sufficient nation in the southern hemisphere.....BANKRUPTED with its people on the verge of starvation thanks to SOCIALISM).
Remember when the "Hollywood" self professed elite rushed down to congratulate the Venezuela dictator for seizing all the private property in that nation? Today, you mention Venezuela its like holding up a mirror to a fascist vampire.
You can point to the small population of Scandinavian Nations as the perfect Socialist UTOPIA....but even their leaders declare..."Please stop calling us a Socialist Nation....we are not socialists"
The perfect example: Demark says We've HAD ENOUGH...….Bernie Sanders....PLEASE STOP CALLING US SOCIALISTS, WE ARE NOT SOCIALISTS.
