@Idissent Same☹ The GOP hypocrisy is thick!
@BlueTsunami Robert Reich summarized it best when he said "Socialism for the rich; predatory capitalism for the rest of us."
@FinnegansWhacked I'm a huge fan of RR & his words are sadly on target. The GOP hypocrisy never ends!

@TheEyeOfBalor My memes are ur memes!🤣 And contrary to what Rudy believes, Truth IS Truth!
@BlueTsunami Technically socialism only refers to public/worker ownership of the means of production.
Which is *exactly* what we need. The proceeds of business should be reinvested in society (which includes supporting the poor and disadvantaged, in part because it's the right thing to do and in part because it usually helps them to utilize their potential / become more productive, yielding an excellent ROI on average), rather than being funneled towards a super-rich minority.
@BlueTsunami By all rights with the size of those bailouts and subsidies, governments should already own the banks, the fossil fuel companies, and much of the agricultural industry - because the amount of money governments have given many of the relevant companies would be enough to buy a controlling stake outright.

*Democratic* socialism seems to work fine in Finland, Sweden, Denmark, etc. We could knock that outta the park here in the US, but...
