Question: When European immigration to the US was very high from the mid 1800's to the mid 1900's was it because we had a "large hand in destroying" those nations? For instance, what did we do to Sweden in 1890 to make almost a million and half Swedes migrate to the US? What did we do to Italy to make five and half million Italians migrate to the US?
I'll check back for your answer. thanks in advance.
I believe he is referring to today, not over 100 years ago.
Socialism if not evil, is bad. Of course you know I'm referring to real definition of Socialism.
There is a cliche that Social Democracy is Capitalism with a heart. Canada isn't as much as a Social Democracy as the ones in Scandinavia, but still.
I would never want true Socialism.
Yeah, those northern European countries are basically capitalism with a large social safety net welfare type state but the citizens pay through the nose for it.
That is about as close to socialism as I could tolerate.
Sanders and the rest sort of screwed up in terms of messaging. If they would have figured out a way to drop the socialism wording and used something else,
I'm talking about just for selling it to the public only here. I don't want us to go that route
Go google terms like davos agenda, world economic forum and stake holder capitalism.
There's a plan to reduce the middle class. They use a lot of fancy flowery language but the end goal is that by2030 you'll own nothing and be happy about.
This is not right wing BS, it's listed right on those websites. The global elites want a one world government, to get there America has to go.
Hence turn us into wimps the way most of Europe is, if you can't see that then I don't know what more I can say.
Much of this is what the right (and to a lesser extent, the left too) is fighting for. The right is firmly against universal health coverage. They are for giving your money to the upper class and trusting it will trickle back down, even after four decades showing it won't.
I grant you, the right and the left have special interest in mind. Both are bad, but to your comment, it's EXACTLY what the right wants.
The global elite don’t want Americans to have what Europeans have: universal healthcare, 4 weeks paid vacation, etc. That would undermine the elite’s power. The elite want Americans to remain desperate, obedient, and subservient workers.
True.
Imagine congress telling big pharma the price in the US will not be higher than the median vs Germany, UK, Aus, Japan, Netherlands, France, Spain.
Imagine getting to take 4 -6 weeks vacation each year.
Imagine congress telling big pharma a drug must stay on the open market for a time equal it its time as it was protected under patent.
Imagine being laid off and not losing your health insurance or keeping it but paying the money equivalent to a mortgage.
The current supply chain problems are not part of a plot by elites to lower expectations.
And your solution is to put healthcare under the evil corrupt thumb of Joe Biden so that it can be bankrupted like social security, USPS, and Amtrak?
Yeah I'll take a hard pass on that. I already pay too much taxes. I prefer to pay too much for nothing in return than way too much for nothing in return.
