HOUSE Resolution Condemns SOCIALISM

China is at base communist. That is far different than socialistic.
Communism is a form of socialism, Sybil.
However, they have adopted capitalism bigly.
Parts of it have. Those parts are succeeding.
There are no communist, socialist or capitalist countries.
This part is correct. Socialism (including communism) exists in every nation. So does capitalism.
We are all a mixture of several systems. The ones the dumb people call socialistic are capitalistic too. All we are talking about is the distribution of the wealth created by workers.
Theft is not good for the workers, business owners, or anybody else.
Some capitalistic countries provide universal healthcare and a social safety net.
Capitalism is not a form of government. Socialism is not capitalism.
Universal healthcare (so-called 'free' healthcare) is NOT free. It's expensive and lower quality.
We push the wealth to the top.
That's part of what socialism does. It is theft. paying the 'Elite'.
The wealthy pin a label on fairer economies that scares the uneducated.
Which is what you are trying to do with your word games.
Lego blocks are a Danish product sold around the world.
Not near as much as they used to be!
Try Sweden. They make Volvos.[Spotify, Ikea, Saab and many other products sold around the globe.
So?
They are capitalistic.
Correct.
The wealthy in America have deluded the people into thinking those capitalist countries are socialist and that is bad.. It obviously has worked.
Capitalism is not a form of government. Socialism is not a form of government.
 
The left is the killer side?
Yes.
Marjorie Taylor Greene was THE opponent to the left for years...and walked around freely feeling safe. She became an opponent to the right in one speech on one night...and within three days she had to hire security guards to escort her around the Capitol grounds, because she so feared for her life.

Thanks for that opportunity, Yakuda. You are a treasure.
She is not an opponent of the 'right'. She resigned because of threats and harassment by DEMOCRATS.

Ignored.
 
So, no difference since "democratic socialism" as defined above is really just statist capitalism which is just a form of socialism.

What is described above as "democratic socialism" isn't so much intended to "mitigate (capitalism's) negative aspects," but rather to make an attempt to generate the necessary wealth that will allow socialism to work.

In short, it is an admission that socialism doesn't work and tries to polish that turd by reintroducing capitalism on a tight leash.
Good call. In simpler form: It's a word game.
 
Admission or not, it operates within a framework of Capitalism.

It does not seek to turn the government socialist.

But rather seek socialist programs within, especially the businesses. Those type of business have been successful. Example: Nvidia.
Socialism is not capitalism, LeftNut.
Socialism is not a form of government.
 
Looks like none of the JPP posters are willing to condemn Socialism, let alone Communism.
I will condemn Communism, I think it has never been successful in practice although it's been on a grand scale a few times.

Socialism is used successfully in sectors through our economy and worldwide. It has its place. Every modern western country has elements of socialism.

Capitalism is not a form of government. Socialism is not a form of government.

Communism is the end goal of Marxism. Socialism is the transitory state. Marx postulated that the totalitarian dictatorship of socialism will fade away. The democrats are openly admitting that they never want to go beyond the totalitarian dictatorship of socialism.
 
Capitalism works and can tolerate a degree of socialism in it. Socialism cannot tolerate capitalism and seeks to minimize it since pure socialism doesn't work and some capitalism is necessary to stoke what would otherwise be a perpetual motion machine.


It has to turn the government socialist. How else can you impose socialism in any degree on society?

Socialism doesn't work because it defies human nature and for that matter, physics really. It argues that entropy doesn't exist and that perpetual motion does.
Oddly enough, socialism REQUIRES capitalism to keep it going. After all, it socialism requires a place to steal from, and capitalism is the only system that creates wealth.

As soon as socialism 'succeeds' and puts down capitalism, it runs out of places to steal from, and collapses.

Fortunately, capitalism can rebuild (just like it built in the first place!).
