Sweden, Norway, Denmark. The horror. The humanity!
A little bit of socialism mixed in with a whole lot of our capitalism is a recipe for happiness and success. As evidenced by the above.
But for some reason the only examples Russian trolls like the OP (and Fox News) care to proffer are Venezuela and Stalin. Well, if I were a Russian troll I guess Stalin would be the first person who came to mind. He probably starved the OP's great great grandma, babushka and all.
The ones that starved didn't live long enough to start a family or if they did the family died with them. The lucky ones escaped.
Capitalism is putting all the money into the hands of the 1%. That's exactly how it is SUPPOSED to function. Sounds like you'd prefer to see some regulation. Me too.
Christianity is on the decline? Holy men have not done a lot, as a whole, to promote their causes have they? Too many of them are child molesting monsters and their bosses have let it happen. That's on them and good riddance I say.
Not happy with democracy myself these days as it led to the buffoon in chief. But we'll survive him. Fear not.
Trump did go to the Pope and tell him he would not cover for any sexual abuse if it came out. Hillary was trying to control the Church to support abortion and all of her other causes so she would cover for the sexual abuse if the Church just kept quiet on abortion. Personally, I am happy Trump was elected even though I am Catholic. The government as well as the Church needs to be cleaned up.
Please stop and get your facts straight.
The swedish school system has failed miserably since it was privatized.
We had one of the best school systems in the world before the centre-right Moderate Party sunk their filthy claws in it and messed everything up.
Hardly a conservative professor can be found on college campuses anymore so I think you have that backward.
My, my such opposition to socialism. I wonder if those who oppose will turn down their Social Security or Medicare benefits to show us all how they stand by their beliefs.
They really strange thing is that these same opponents of socialism will defend their nationalist leader, Demented Donald Trump, DDT, and his attempt to become king of the US.
Social Security is not an entitlement---we paid into it. Medicare is horrible but it was tacked on so we have to deal with it.

"Socialism demands that we place blind trust in whoever takes the power to distribute society’s goods and services. History shows those who have this power abuse it in horrific ways."
Democratic socialism has little to do with being Democratic.
I don't think anyone in this country wants to take "the power to distribute society's good and services." I don't see that being promoted anywhere.

More outright lies.
I am not surprised.
