The ones who implement it consider themselves heroes - that's what they are trying to do.

Show the world how awesome they are.

Losers love socialism. That's who they are selling it to - losers who are too lazy and stupid to earn a living.

Plus, they are probably [...}.

After last night's debate - I am predicting a landslide for Trump. Operation "let them talk" is working. Jeeze.

Capitalism recovered because of Socialism. Jesus. Do you not know a thing about history?

You take the best of both.

The real problem with either is a consolidation of power.....in any form of government.

Would love to know how this is the case.

Careful with this line of thinking. Sounds awfully Libertarian to me. And considering anything to the right of Marx is now "Alt-Right", I'd hate to see the Left turn on you.

A "landslide" in electoral votes, although there is no true definition, is about 375. Trump received 304 EVs in 2016 which means he needs an additional 71 EVs to win a landslide victory.

So tell us which additional states he will win in 2020 that he did not win in 2016 to gain an additional 71 electoral votes.

Send a few socialist millennials my way. After a few hours of shoving horse shit (yes farm dung) they'll turn capitalist and go quickly back to their city jobs for nice paychecks.
