☭ This is DEMOCRAT Socialism ☭
☭ DEMOCRAT ☭
DEMOCRATS are increasingly lining up to support a “Green New Deal,” which, while vague on details, could end up being the largest expansion of government in decades.
As it stands, the “Green New Deal” is more aspirational than actual policy. Its main backer, incoming DEMOCRAT New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, compared it to the Great Society of the 1960s.
More than 40 DEMOCRAT lawmakers support the “Green New Deal” as part of "a broad plan to fight global warming" and bring about what they see as “economic, social and racial justice.”
Those goals include "moving the U.S. to 100 percent green energy", federal job guarantees, guaranteed minimum income and universal health care.

Are you trying to change the subject already? How about all those medical deaths in the US, eh?
Are black people scary to southern racists like you?
Excellent idea!
It could happen but I doubt it will anytime soon. Although, now that you'all have a sniff of what Obamacare can do, there won't be any turning back at least. Keep fighting for socially responsible government to bail out your asses!

And now can we turn back to the topic of the two year old? I know your heart's full of the spirit of Xmas and your first consideration is the child.
Never mind all the Americans getting offed by doctors, they're just Americans getting what they PAY for.
☭ This is Ecuadorian Socialism ☭
☭ SOCIALISM IN ACTION ☭
REVENTADOR, Ecuador — The dam sits under the glare of an active volcano, with columns of ash spewing toward the sky. Officials had warned against the dam for decades. Geologists said an earthquake could wipe it away.
Now, only two years after opening, thousands of cracks are splintering the dam’s machinery. Its reservoir is clogged with silt, sand and trees. And the only time engineers tried to throttle up the facility completely, it shook violently and shorted out the national electricity grid.
This giant dam in the jungle, financed and built by China, was supposed to christen Ecuador’s vast ambitions, solve its energy needs and help lift the small South American country out of poverty.
Instead, it has become part of a national scandal engulfing the country in corruption, perilous amounts of debt — and a future tethered to China. Ecuador’s president at the time, Rafael Correa, was a left-wing Socialist who had vowed to free his country from the orbit of the United States.
Elected in 2006 under a surge that brought leftists to power across Latin America, Mr. Correa took aim at the United States with fiery, anti-imperialist speeches. In 2008, he refused to renew a lease that allowed American anti-narcotics surveillance flights to operate from an Ecuadorean air force base.
Soon, Western financial institutions fell in Mr. Correa’s cross hairs. He denounced the International Monetary Fund, saying it put restrictions on his spending. Then in 2008, he defaulted on $3.2 billion of his country’s foreign debt and invited China to fill in the breach.
Nearly every top Ecuadorean official involved in the dam’s construction is either imprisoned or sentenced on bribery charges. That includes a former vice president, a former electricity minister and even the former anti-corruption official monitoring the project, who was caught on tape talking about Chinese bribes.
Then there is the price tag: around $19 billion in Chinese loans, not only for this dam, known as Coca Codo Sinclair, but also for bridges, highways, irrigation, schools, health clinics and a half dozen other dams the government is scrambling to pay for.
It doesn’t matter whether Ecuador can afford them.
China gets paid either way.
To settle the bill, China gets to keep 80 percent of Ecuador’s most valuable export — oil — because many of the contracts are repaid in petroleum, not dollars. In fact, China gets the oil at a discount, then sells it for an additional profit.
Pumping enough oil to repay China has become such an imperative for Ecuador that it is drilling deeper in the Amazon, threatening more deforestation.
China made its plans clear a decade ago, when it swept into Latin America during the global financial crisis, tossing governments an economic lifeline and promising to “treat each other as equals,” a clear swipe at American dominance.
It worked. China, now South America’s top trading partner, has seeded the region with infrastructure and a staggering trail of loans.

And that socially responsible Americans, is how we shut down people like "Legion" and other dum co--suckers who think they can say something derogatory against universal health care.
They sometimes forget they are Americans and they have to face the ugly facts about their own health care MESS.

"socially responsible" you mean good little Liberal sheep. America was founded not on some fictitious "social contract" or some other Leftist claptrap, but on rugged individualism and the ability to pull one's self up by our own bootstraps. Leftists are incapable of that. They think big daddy government should wipe our asses.

Actually, America was founded on slavery. But also much more socially responsible government than what has evolved in the Trump era especially. America will find it's way back or it will disintegrate. l
Socially responsible government has some things in common with communism. Universal health care is certainy socialist leaning policy. And it's obviously coming to America soon. Seasons greetings Nazi!

How am I a Nazi? I believe in national sovereignty and security. Hallmarks of the Constitutional Republic America is supposed to be. I don't believe in open borders as they have proven to be a catastrophic disaster in Europe. I believe in people owning to their own responsibilities and I will reject any attempts to be forced on government run medicine, even if it means a long overdue tax revolt (Boston Tea Party, anyone?). America was founded with the INDIVIDUAL in mind. Not some Collectivist bullshit like you espouse, Hoser.

"Preventable Medical Error Is Canadian Healthcare's Silent Killer ...
https://www.huffingtonpost.ca/kathleen-finlay/medical-error-deaths_b_8350324.html
Oct 24, 2015 - While our hospitals save lives every day, they are also the third leading cause of avoidable death every year. In Canada, medical errors and hospital-acquired infections claim between 30,000 and 60,000 lives annually. Thousands more are injured. But to the public, these incidents are largely invisible."

Long lines at bakeries, murmured complaints on the street but fiery ones on the social networks and, finally, an official explanation: Cuba is suffering a shortage of flour due to problems at its mills, a situation that has made bread the most sought-after food item on the communist island these days.
In recent weeks, packages of flour have disappeared from the shelves in the state-run stores and, with them, a good portion of the bread for sale.

They (extreme-right Americans) seem to think that truly socialistic regimes like those that prevailed in The Soviet Union and China...somehow granted people "free things"...and that the people didn't have to work.
In those countries, if you didn't work, you were sent to a gulag or a forced work camp...where you broke up rocks or toiled in mines.
American conservatives are the most ignorant humans ever. They endorse one of the most disgusting, inhumane political philosophies ever to pollute planet Earth. They are, for the most part, morons steadying the hand of people trying to slice their throats.
Pity for them only goes so far. Perhaps the present clown-prince will finally awaken enough of them so that this supposedly conservative pretense come to a well-deserved end.

When you Americans get into health care discussions with a Canadian, you always end up getting the short end of the stick. If you wish to continue in an acceptable manner by arguing something then do so. Bad behaviour of that sort won't work with me.

Nazism is the most stark contrast to communism, and socialism can be related in part to socialism. And socialism forms the basis for socially responsible capitalist government. America's government is socially irresponsible.
Can you put all that together, with your display of the flag in order to understand why people will perceive you as a Nazi?
If you wish to learn from me in a respectable discussion then ask questions on how that all relates to your behaviour.
