Hitler Ate Sugar fallacy.
Fox News Socialism has a free market and private property. It's very different from Marxism. And as I said, there are little to no Americans today who want Marxism.
Mason is a Marxist!
I never said it wasn't a trait of Marxism. The argument was whether or not these government programs are Marxism. If all it takes is one trait, well Obama didn't take away private property, so by your own logic, he's a Capitalist.
That's why I said it's good to see you're coming around to facts. Eventually, if you're honest, you'll admit that it is Marxism.
By your logic, a statement could have an incorrect portion and the entire statement would be true. No wonder you idiots think there are more than two genders.

Hello StoneByStone,
The right created it's own hell.
And the right has shot itself in it's own foot because they have also created a demographic situation which produces more opposition. They have adopted a policy which allows abortion for anyone who has lots of money to travel, but prohibits it for the very poor who do not.
That's why so many younger voters are embracing Socialism now. For as long as we've been alive, the Right has used this word to refer to ANY program to help the working-class.
If Boomers get mad that we're not afraid of "Socialism" because it doesn't invoke images of Soviet gulags for us, they should blame themselves for saying the ACA was Socialist.

Hello Miss Margot Frank,
So is straight up socialism.
And that's why we are wise to incorporate the best elements of each into a hybrid system which uses capitalism for wants, socialism for needs. That way, everyone has their needs met, and those who wish to excel have the opportunity to do so. This creates a society where everyone has everything they really need, and those who wish to obsess over wealth are free to pursue it.
"Capitalism is like a dead herring in the moonlight,it shines but it stinks"

I'm not sure what the political implications of that will be, as most people who tend to vote Republican actually are poor. That, and a need for cheap labor, is why I think the Right is against abortion.

It's only Marxism if there is no private property or free market.
And no, your analogy doesn't work. Like I said, Obama also believed in private property and free markets, which are also Capitalist traits. So by your own logic, Obama was a Capitalist.

Wrong.
But Obama has a Capitalist trait.

He has Marxist traits which means your claim he's a capitalist is false.

He has both Marxist traits and Capitalist traits.
So by your logic, that all it takes is one trait, I guess Obama is both.

You can't be both.

I know. That shows how stupid your logic is.

Never said Obama was both. You did.

Yeah, but the Evangelicals oppose abortion because it's considered a "left-wing thing." And of course, they still support Trump, despite his failure to stop abortion.

That isn't my logic so it has to be yours.
