I don't like socialism or facism, I like capitalism. But what does any of this have to do with Trump supporters being called nazis?
You should have read the whole Wikipedia article, Jimmy.
If you did you should have known that "the majority of scholars identify Nazism in both theory and practice as a form of far-right politics. Far-right themes in Nazism include the argument that superior people have a right to dominate other people and purge society of supposed inferior elements."
You would also have known that denied the view that nazism was either right wing or left wing.
Go back and do your homework.

That's an option available only to the rich. Gerta or Lars Sorenson who teaches at the local public school in Sweden doesn't have that option, and pays a chitload in taxes.
Kamprad moved back two years ago.
H&M owner Stefan Persson lives in England but still pays many millions in taxes in Sweden.

i had to stop there because that's SO very opposed to individual-determination, and VERY much so Lefty self-righteous BS.

More than 100 million people have been murdered by left-wing regimes in the name of the very same exact belief you posted (bold) in the 20th Century, alone.

More than 100 million.

Dead.

Gone.

How much in tax did he pay to Sweden for the 40 years he "lived" elsewhere?

I am NOT surprised you would ask this question.

Read this real SLOW. BECAUSE THEY PAY THE MOST.

Around 90% of ALL federal income taxes are paid by the top income earners.

eaven forbid we lower the taxes for those that ACTUALLY pay the MOST taxes.

I know, you don't comprehend!
If your claim is that the top 1% pays 90% of the total tax, that's incorrect. Use google.

Like the name caller-in-chief who sits in the White House? Although not today, it's Saturday so he's probably in NJ or FL.

We don’t need tax cuts and less regulation. That’s the point.

LOL!

Well, you guys would know. I've never seen such a bunch of juvie name callers in my life as you folks.

*snowflakes

*Trump derangement disorder

*fascist liberals

*feminazis

*libertards

*the Dims

Any many, many more, too numerous to list here.

All the republicans have left in the era of Trump is name calling.

Who said the following? A Right-winger? Or a Left-winger?

"For Fascism, society is the end, individuals the means, and its whole life consists in using individuals as instruments for its social ends."

Which, throughout history, believe individuals are expendable to further the cause? The Right-wing? Or the Left-wing?

And remember... One side has a 100+ million body count in the 20th century, alone.
