Ha. Take it out of context to act like I need a gun in a hospital. Typical socialist move.
I don’t understand why you believe you need a gun for the hell that is socialism so it’s difficult to take it out of context.
I’m not a socialist and for the record I don’t believe Sanders is electable in a general election because people react like you have. You think you need to buy a gun because Sanders proposes social programs and you confuse those with socialism while lecturing others to research the difference when it is obvious you, yourself, don’t understand the difference.
Quote:As far as the first comment, I think you, also, like the hollodero, need to do some research on what socialism actually is.
I would prefer you to explain it. Because I’m interested in what you believe is the difference.
Quote:Name a new program that Bernie wants and I'll be happy to explain how it's socialism and not just a social program.
Medicare for all.
Quote:By the way, even it a social program that I benefit from is a form of socialism, that's a HORRIBLE example of why socialism is good considering I don't work because I can't, but you're saying that everyone should get the same benefits as me if they choose not to work.
I think disabled people who can’t work should have a safety net if we are going to call ourselves the greatest country in the history of the world. I expect us to live up to our own hype and not just empty platitudes.
That doesn’t mean I think everyone should get the same benefits as you. And I don’t believe everyone should get the same benefits as you if they have the ability to work, but choose not to work.
But, you’re right about one thing. It is a horrible example of socialism because as you have already pointed out; that is an example of a social program, not socialism. And, yet, even after telling me it is a social program you do a 180 and claim it is a horrible example of socialism.
Quote:And my benefits aren't even that great:
Writes the guy with benefits. Do you think you should get the same benefits as someone who works full time and pays for them? What are you, a socialist?
This is always the complaint of people who get benefits; they aren’t good enough.
Quote:the healthcare I get isn't that extensive, meaning if everyone were to be on the tab it would be even worse for everyone.
And this is their other complaint. After bitching about how shitty their benefits are they complain about not wanting others to get the same benefits and F up their benefits. Which indicates to me you recognize the value of your benefits despite bitching about how shitty they are.
