There Are Very Few Socialists in America: Krugman

[TVguyCards]

67. Ahh I was expecting you to say that :)

I was hoping you'd ask/say that 😀

Context is really important here and not be ignored. When such questions are asked, we must also ask how come that is even a thing to begin with. Well, the answer is essentially a pretty easy one; name a country that's Socialist that the United States has not put sanctions on. That's a pretty huge thing in the overall spectrum of things and who suffers because of those sanctions? Little kids, the sick, the elderly, the disabled, women, on and on and for what? Because a country decided to become Socialist?

I always find that question intriguing because it fails to account for the failures of Capitalism especially as it relates to Central America, South East Asia, and Africa.

I don't know about you but I'd rather have workers own the means of production than some wealthy billionaire CEO was just wants to exploit labor so they can buy another billion dollar boat or super yacht. Not to mention the entire Union aspect of things.
