This isn't your Grandpa's Democrat party...call it what is. Socialism.

You are damn right. It's actually capitalism by the way. Cortez and Sanders (and I) are social democrats, which is capitalism with lots of social programs to help the lower class.

Yes...it is capitalism with forced public welfare. Sorry, tang. I didn't see you post until long after I submitted my own post stating there was a difference between true Socialism and what Sanders, the Zueckerbergs of the US (and yourself) believe.

Well, welfare is part of it.

Leadership should put forth more effort making the distinction. The moniker "Socialism" will have a very hard time winning a national popular vote. There's too much negative connotations attached.

https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2018/07/is_trump_the_most_fun_president_ever.html

i read it

"the Mueller clown show"

thats not thinking. thats opining

"ridiculous" is a ridiculous adjective to use if the author is reporting

I understand that Liberals, Progressives, Socialists want a peaceful world, everyone to enjoy a comfortable life. No one gets singled out.

But you have to have public policies that are well thought out, and that can be implemented and governed at least somewhat efficiently. They can't break the bank. California's proposed Single Payer would have tripled their annual budget.

America's population in 2060 is estimated to be 400-440 million, a 20-25 percent jump over the current 330 million. We must have an economy and the infrastructure to support it. Open borders, high unemployment, escalating national debt, overstressed federal assistance programs cannot provide adequately.

We have to get our ducks in a row.

There are not enough rich uncles to redistribute wealth to sustain a socialist society. Someone teach Bernie how to do math. Alinsky's ideas will not work here.

As most know here...........I'm no Trump fan, or even a "tolerater" of the current "leadership" (I use that term WAY loosely!) of the so-called Republican party.
I think they've lost their collective minds...................

BUT, I agree with Doc completely.

We DO need to get our ducks in a row.
And it ain't JUST Bernie that needs to learn to "do math". Seems to me that about 99% of the Country NEEDS to learn basic logical thinking......... like Math, History----and WHY IT is important, Citizenship and WHY WE matter in THIS Country, etc.

MY basic most recent understanding about my Country is......................
That it is comprised largely of ignoramusses, doofusses, neer-do-wells, etc.
Folks who CAN'T DO! ---- Much of ANYTHING!
Can't think, can't add, Can't change a flat tire, Can't discern reality from fantasy, Can't DO!

I have been convinced that MOST don't even understand why this Country was special.........So sad!
They've found their piper. A big mouth whiner, who complains that "OTHERS" are the problem.
WRONG! WE are the problem.
We've become stupid, lazy, and totally worthless.
Happy 4th.............

Open borders?
High unemployment?
National Debt?
Redistribution of wealth?

I don't think you understand what social democracy is. It isn't socialism.

The number of homeless will skyrocket without border enforcement. So will wait times in emergency rooms.

The people fleeing desperate conditions is understandable. But the message must be that they wait their turn to come here, they sign the guest book, they contribute and then become citizens. This isn't a flop house...ask Merkle if she would have done things differently. She created a mess. They are overrun...

What good does it do anyone to just let them in, if they have no access to opportunity, no skills? They will immediately become a burden, and that is not what they seek. It may appeal to a liberal to feel they've done something nice for someone, but it only makes it worse.

1. I don't support completely open borders. I want vetting, and I discourage and want to limit illegal immigration.
2. In social democracy, immigrants would have acess to things like free healthcare and education.

Free health care isn't free. Hospitals and doctors don't operate without adequate funding. There is a price tag, and it would be staggering. Claims of lower prices and better care were BS out of Obama's mouth. He couldn't deliver as advertised.

The proof is in the pudding...

Don't forget, politicians are in it for the vote, not for delivering...is why many voted in a businessman.

What Socialists propose would place a huge burden on taxpayers.

Most Americans want choices in Healthcare. They don't want to be waiting months for surgeries, or to be told that Grandma is too old or not a worthy candidate for care. They don't want the government making those decisions. Rationed Healthcare sucks.

Free education? Once again, there is a price. Do the math.

The DNC's Tom Perez calls it socialism. Bernie says he is a Socialist that caucuses with Democrats. Call it what it is...

When Bernie says some on the left are too extreme, they are planning on going way off the cliff. It ain't gonna go over well at the ballot box. Especially in Flyover America...

????????????????????????????????????????????????????

I don't know what social democracy is.

I know the difference between social liberals and social conservatives.

I know the difference between fiscal liberals and fiscal conservatives.

I know that socialism embraces tenets of communism and fascism.

I know conservatism doesn't tolerate open borders, high unemployment, national debt or redistribution of wealth.

I don't know what social democracy is. Never heard of it before. Must be new.

Can you explain it to us?

Thank You.

Point #2. What kind of immigrants? Legal or illegal.

Thank You.
