    This is a lie; leftists seem glib at the idea of Americans hurting if it will help them to sell their job killing third world agenda snowflake. STFU, seriously. You can't even lie without looking stupid.

    you are just another right wing knuckle dragger. Its been going on for 90 years so Obama was president while it has been going on. Obama was smart enough to not bring back jobs in a dying industry.

    A president doesn't have the power to shut down coal mines. If you live in WVA you should be more worried about dirtbags like Don Blankenship running the companies.

A bunch of Norwegians prays for rain. No rain. A collection of Nevada cow farmers pray for rain. No rain. It’s the same with socialism. Wherever it is tried, it fails. The GPS is irrelevant.

    On the other hand, you have tyrants, who are real, and inexperience, which is real. Inexperienced tyrants don’t have to clean up their pollution because nobody can sack them for doing a crap job, so they languish in power and do whatever the hell they like. Like spoiled brats who refuse to clean up their bedroom, Chinese Communist tyrants are just too lazy or corrupt to bother. Meanwhile, in Western democracies, if Presidents allowed such pollution, they are replaced by others who promise to clean up the mess.

    So, two different things:

    1. Socialism, which works for nobody, regardless of their GPS

    2. Lazy communist tyrants who refuse to clean up their crap.
    Wake the hell up, Rob.

    You are saying that socialism will not work here because it has failed everywhere it has been tried.

    You are also saying that, "The argument, “Americans cannot use coal sensibly because communists are reckless with coal,” is a childish red herring."

    You are trying to have it both ways on the question of whether or not America can do things that others cannot...or will not.

    1) Socialism MAY WORK HERE...and everywhere else once we get out hands on it.

    2) A healthy infusion of socialism MAY WORK VERY WELL HERE.

    3) Socialism has helped China become the second largest economy in the world...so saying that socialism doesn't work anywhere is not true.


    My supposition that you would not acknowledge that you are trying to have it both ways...seems to be holding up.

    What does my GPS have to do with this?

    I only use my GPS to determine distances from my ball to the center of the green.

    Then it should be easy enough for you to use your arthritic hands to point to my quote. Perhaps your Straw Man can help you.

    You are also saying that, "The argument, “Americans cannot use coal sensibly because communists are reckless with coal,” is a childish red herring."
    There’s no ‘also’, and I said that myself, without your summary.

    You are trying to have it both ways on the question of whether or not America can do things that others cannot...or will not.
    No, that’s just a Straw Man whispering in your wax filled ear – the one your Pitbull left you.

    1) Socialism MAY WORK HERE...and everywhere else once we get out hands on it.
    Praying doesn’t work. Nor does Santa. You need to grow up and face that. There is no such thing as ‘free money’ unless you mean gifts or charity and often even they aren't free.

    2) A healthy infusion of socialism MAY WORK VERY WELL HERE.
    Only if you can get the tooth fairy to work too, but you can't. It's a fairy tale.

    3) Socialism has helped China become the second largest economy in the world...
    Lying about China is no different from lying about Obama’s war on coal. Both are well documented and highly visible online. Thugs have been running China since Máo Zédōng took over by force in 1949. When it was clear they were going to follow the USSR into bankruptcy, and that their fairy story about Socialism was just a silly dream, they tore up their Marxist manual and began making money, using slave armies and billions of prisoners. It’s not laissez-faire supply and demand by any means, but it certainly isn’t ‘socialism’.

    What does my GPS have to do with this?
    Nothing – but you keep bringing it up. Praying doesn’t work wherever you try it. Location has nothing to do with it.
    The first witchdoctor 100,000 years ago said, "God did it," and today the Pope says the same thing.

    You said, and I quote..."Socialism, which works for nobody, regardless of their GPS"

    You ARE saying it cannot work HERE...because it has worked nowhere.




    There’s no ‘also’, and I said that myself, without your summary.

    Okay...try being more consistent then.


    No, that’s just a Straw Man whispering in your wax filled ear – the one your Pitbull left you.
    Bull shit. You ARE trying to have it both ways on the question of whether or not America can do things that others cannot...or will not.

    Praying doesn’t work. Nor does Santa. You need to grow up and face that. There is no such thing as ‘free money’ unless you mean gifts or charity and often even they aren't free.
    Once again, you are saying it cannot work here because nobody else has been able to make it work.

    Give up on that shit. Have more trust in our nation.

    Only if you can get the tooth fairy to work too, but you can't. It's a fairy tale.
    You are saying that a healthy infusion of socialism cannot work here.

    Same all story...and the same one you deny making.

It’s not laissez-faire supply and demand by any means, but it certainly isn’t ‘socialism’.
    Bull shit.

    China is the second largest economy in the world...and it has a socialistic economy with a healthy transfusion of free enterprise (capitalism).

    You just don't want to acknowledge it.

    But it is so.

    Ya can look it up.

    Nothing – but you keep bringing it up. Praying doesn’t work wherever you try it. Location has nothing to do with it.
    What the fuck are you babbling about.

    Try making some sense.
