Socialism

The attempt of using government regulation to remove the social hierarchy from the economic system. Most attempts end in collapse from a traditional counter-culture, or remove themselves from power after failing to improve national conditions or fulfill promises. Unrelated to National Socialism.

Sweden uses a form of democratic socialism, and tend to see success due to a low, close-knit population:

“Anyone who supports socialism should be thrown from a helicopter.”

socialism

The official religion of the millennial generation, post-millennials, underachievers, parasites, the far left, illegal aliens, UCLA students, those with no ambition, those who don't mind staying poor, those who don't care about their own personal liberties, and any other ignorant person who has nothing left to lose.

If you're too stupid to understand that history repeats itself and that socialism always results in complete societal collapse, then there is little hope for you.

Socialism

Socialism is a transitional stage from the Capitalist relations of Production to the Communist relations of Production. During this transition the Working Class and Popular Masses impose the Dictatorship of the Proletariat, a Class Dictatorship that utilises the State Apparatus to serve their interests and the Constitution to defend Social Property the same way the Dictatorship of the Borgeousie imposes its own Class Dictatorship and utilises the State Apparatus to serve their interests and the Constitution to defend Private Property. When Private Property is abolished then there will be no need for a Class System and therefore no need for a State Apparatus for a Class to impose its rule upon an other and that leads to Communism.

Western Nations: You are a Communist State!
Newborn Worker's State: No. I'm a Socialist Republic and I will remain so till I develop the Communist relations of Production and World Socialism is achieved because like Capitalism, Communism is a World System.

Socialism

1.) A race to the bottom

2.) The government running your business

3.) Not being able to (if need be) get mad a reprimand your employees, because in turn you work for the government.

if the guy to the right and left of you doesn't have to work just as hard as you then there's no incentive. This is the ultimate result of socialism are you sure you want it in your country?

Socialism

Ruining a country under totalitarian, statist, collective policies, and then blaming the USA for the aftermath.

"America will never be a Socialist country". "Patria, (Homeland), Socialismo (Socialism), o (or) Muerte (Death)".

socialism

a range of economic and social systems characterised by social ownership of the means of production and workers' self-management, as well as the political theories and movements associated with them. Social ownership can be public, collective or cooperative ownership, or citizen ownership of equity. The idea would work, if human nature was not taken into account. If taken into account (which is what it would be in real life) it doesnt work. Human greed will overcome, and the government will always become totalitarian and corrupt. Therefore, socialism, and its counterpart, communism does not work.

When describing a person who follows the ideas of socialism, use word socialist

In the recent years (2018-2019) socialism has been picked up by democrats and liberals in the United States. Even after many failiures of socialism, they still follow the the idea hell-bent on failing. Senators such as Berny Sanders and president Barack Obama follow such ideas.

Socialism could work, if human nature would not work.
