    Okay, let's try it this way:

    Here's how I back up my original statement:

    https://www.vox.com/policy-and-polit...ism-revolution

    https://www.investopedia.com/article...st-economy.asp

    Now Earl points to a current problem in Venezuela as a case closed example of socialism's failures. I provided proof that there's more to the story than that, and Earl's reply is a repetitive parroting of his previous statement. So if Earl cannot point for point disprove the content of my sources, he's not worth responding to.

    “Democracy extends the sphere of individual freedom, socialism restricts it. Democracy attaches all possible value to each man; socialism makes each man a mere agent, a mere number. Democracy and socialism have nothing in common but one word: equality. But notice the difference: while democracy seeks equality in liberty, socialism seeks equality in restraint and servitude.”
    ― Alexis de Tocqueville

    Now, all you MAGA wearers have to actually fault the content, not just bitch & moan about the source. Carry on.
    Only a fucking Marxist moron like you can make such moronic claims and defend what is happening in Venezuela. Yeah asshat, it's TRUMPS fault.

    Seems Earl doesn't have the cojones to debate any information that can't be pressed into a slogan, talking point or mantra. OPINION seems to be Earl's strong point....avoidance of contrary information his forte.

    That is why Obama suffered massive losses in 2010 and 2014 in the House and Senate. Americans don't buy your bullshit when the truth gets out about what it will do to the economy and our liberties snowflake.

    Now run along; try to grow a brain.

    ^^^ As political scientist John Pitney (a professor at Claremont McKenna College with a fine scholarly record and experience in Republican politics) notes, this quote is bogus. He never said it.
