Pence referred to China as "communist China".
China is not communist. No communist nations exist. Pence needs to learn a little political science. Since Harris never corrected him she needs to learn a little political science too.
Or perhaps they both know better and are deliberately spreading false info to the gullible American people. Which do you think it is?
There used to be a democratically elected leader in Chile that was replaced by a brutal dictator. Marxism is not allowed to compete. Capitalists secretly hate competition while claiming to love it.
Marxism is not allowed to compete. Capitalists have historically conspired against it before it ever has a chance to spread. Kissinger hates competition.
@sonhouse saidNo, let them go at it. I love watching conservatives go at it.
@Metal-Brain
Jeez, get a room.
It's like a giant stupid contest.
No matter who wins, they're still conservatives.
@suzianne saidWhy did Kissinger and Nixon overthrow the democratically elected leader in Chile? If our government does not respect democracy abroad why would they respect it here?
No, let them go at it. I love watching conservatives go at it.

.You could have shortened that question...Why do capitalists try to suppress socialism?
This begs a fair question: Why do capitalists try to suppress socialism with sanctions, trade embargoes, coups and war for regime change?
Seems to me that capitalists know socialists can compete and that is why they hate it so much and feel the need to conspire against it and suppress it before people find out it serves the interest of the majority, spreads and eventually out-competes capit ...[text shortened]... ty of people will get better educated and realize what is in their own interests, like Einstein did.
Socialism includes slow economic growth, less entrepreneurial opportunity and competition, (can you IMAGINE!?!!?), and a potential lack of motivation due to lesser rewards. (found that on google) My my, Metal Brain. All that stuff in your post makes me suspect you want socialism, which would result in a pretty sad state of affairs. I've been to, and studied, Cuba. I know, there are different types of societies. How about let us have one that allows for the concepts in my first sentence above? You can't have it both ways, metal brain.
Do you like your choices at the supermarket? Could we lose our newly-marketed organic foods? Did I say market......I bet that makes you think of the corner stands on the streets, where you can buy a tomato,,,,is that what you want? Jeepers.
@AverageJoe1
Setting aside other peoples' stuff for a moment, what DO you libs want? If we were a group of lions in a forest, and I went out and hunted down a deer, would it be natural for me to drag it back for everyone, producers and losers alike, and divide it up? A Yes or no would be fine. The simplest queries are the toughest!

@averagejoe1 saidLions hunt in savannas, not forests, and they work together to bring down prey and all sharing the meal.

So yes, it would be natural.
@earl-of-trumps saidHuman beings have been social creatures throughout their existence. Averagejoe's version of capitalism is unnatural for humans.
apparently, it's natural for humans, too

Are you disputing the fact that capitalist governments have aggressively attacked socialist and or communist whenever and wherever they have appeared?
I’ll give you a clue “The Domino effect”.

@averagejoe1 saidOK, savannahs, what a stupid I am. And i guess I should pick another critter, maybe a hyena, they are known to slap another hyena for getting near their supper. Pretend you don't get my point.

Now, how come no response to this post about socialism? And, BTW, who cares if Einstein was a socialist, or a turk, what has he got to do with this?

@vivify saidWouldn't work. The liberals hate guns, yet would have to have them to go after prey.

Well, I just made some money, mowed all the neighbors' yards. I will go up and down the street now, and spread it around to all the porch sitters. You fellers just can't get real.
@averagejoe1 saidEinstein was a socialist and he was smarter than you.

@averagejoe1 saidDo you understand how taxes work? Or what pays for police, firefighters, roads, bridges, schools, Medicaid, etc.?
Wouldn't work. The liberals hate guns, yet would have to have them to go after prey.

Do you believe this should be stopped so that only people who can afford firefighters and police should receive recieve their services?
