That isn`t what Rose meant but you are too dense to realize that!! Government control over which foods we get - government control over where we travel and government control over who gets property and who doesn`t is what Rose was talking about!! Capitalism is what grew this country into a great nation and the socialism you keep pushing is what destroys nations making YOU an enemy!! The socialism you push IS communism so don`t even begin to deny you`re a communis because THAT is EXACTLY what you are!!!

martsiva

Once again you show you`re socialist communism!! Take away from those who have earned their money and give it to those who have not earned it!! Put all corporations under control of the state like they do in communist CHINA!!

Nonsense! The problem is our current progressive government needs money to spend and has gone after ever smaller businesses to get it, plus forcing businesses to grant perks to employees beyond what small businesses can handle. They try to treat all employees the same regardless of the ability of the businesses to survive under their demands. The employees themselves have no say in the matter, it comes down from on high. So, they are soon out of work as the business closes. That is really great progressivism!

Uhh....Obamacare is there for those that can't afford insurance. Nowhere does the constitution harness the federal government with the responsibility of the citizenry's health care. Take care of yourself. Help or accept help from your family or charity. Lastly, perhaps die early. There are your options.

Because they haven’t earned it! Those of us that have worked for 60 plus year

I have always been for Medicare for all. We are the only first world nation not to have something like this.

I thought you need to work for it?

Not sure we are a 1st world country anymore. We also have better health care than all those countries

Maybe not morbidly rich people directly, but "green energy" companies that go broke after getting $100 million's in hand-outs, socially active groups that only cause divisions and destruction, labor organizations that funnel a significant percentage of the money right back to the politicians, infrastructure projects that go to major political donors who never complete their contracts, waste and fraud in medicare/medicare programs reaching 25% of expenditures, need I go on?

Milosia, my life has been for the past 50 years, a very modest lifestyle. Yet I believe in Capitalism.

After our Revolution, ending our lives as Subjects of King George III, (when everyone was owned by the State as chattel), 1776 was a turning point in human civilization; "We the People" owned the State.

The Industrial Revolution blossomed, and we became unequally rich. More innovation has happened in the past 200 years than the past 2 million years. Our Freedom To Choose is our security.

Please make note of these humble beginnings of billionaires:

Bill Gates developed WINDOWS Microsoft in his garage.

Jeff Bezos disassembled his crib with a screwdriver to escape. He also began AMAZON in poverty, slowly selling books online from a warehouse and questioning his customers as to what else they needed.

Elon Musk emigrated from South Africa with his mother, quite poor. He worked 100 hours per week to start up one business, and used its profits to start another. He doesn't owe you or me a damned dime.

The endless toil to develop a product, like Ben Franklin, Graham Bell, Thomas Edison, or Eastman Kodak are legendary, and replicated amongst the other 22 million self-employed and Fortune 500. The vast majority did not arrive with a "silver spoon in their mouth."

Most successful businessmen never even take a salary for the first 5 years to get started. Their customers and employees always take priority. How long do you work?

Is it wrong to inherit a family farm or a business or money? The answer is no.

Is the cost of medical care so high today because of greedy doctors, or because of over-government regulation?

Who gives the best oversight: private class action lawsuits, or the FDA, CDC, EPA, 'expert' corrupt bureaucrats?

Look up the history of a new antibiotic Levaquin (where the patient's flesh falls off his bones). The head of the FDA had stock in this product, so it was not removed from the market. See Attorney Larry Klayman's class action lawsuit.

Karl Marx was a leech upon his family and collaborators like Friedrich Engles, a textile magnate in the employ of Prussian intelligence. But for innovators to prosper today, their companies must make an instant profit beyond the Federal Reserve Bank's negative percentage rate of the dollar's depreciation.

Here's a good read on the creation of Karl Marx's government central banking system, the Federal Reserve Bank:

Milosia, you have been duped by the Democrat's word game.
The "wealth" that is being spoken of is only referring to investments in the stock market which is peanuts.

The vast majority of our people's wealth is in assets: real estate, their homes, land, millions of small businesses that have not gone public and intellectual property (patents), etc.
The biggest landowner is the Federal Government's Bureau of Land Management.

Federal owned land (does not include national parks, monuments, reservations)

PigW, "Medicare for all" is socialism and socialism is just pre communism or communism lite. Move to another country. You will be happier.

Albert Camus is a French author, comedian, and philosopher who won the Noble Prize for literature many decades ago. He started out as a socialist under Charles De Gaulle and swung to the right in the 1960s after the Algerian Revolution.

The French socialists, for much too long, held onto their colonies after WWI and WWII in the Levant and Africa, inciting the radical Islamic Wahhabi caliphs (phony fundamentalists) to organize rebellion. Jack Philby of Arabia (father to British Mole communist Kim Philby) introduced communism to the Arabian Wahhabi of Iban Saud by exposing the Sykes Picot Treaty. Ibin Saud scrapped Philby as a consultant for being a fake Muslim along with the Wahhabi caliphs

King Saud, when taking over the rule of Mecca at the end of WWI, joined the Brits and chose the Islamic Sunnis faith, since 80% of Muslims attending the Haj, were of this traditional Sunnis faith. The Algerians are not radical Islamist, they are traditional Sunnis.

Albert Camus caught on to France's role of duplicity. He fully understood socialism was purposely designed to implode economically and enslave Muslims. The Arabs are not a stupid people, but it has taken them some time to learn of Marx's communist racism and lust for oil. The French, still socialists, still control 70% of Africa's currency.

There are 70 volumes of Karl Marx's unpublished works in German for the rest of the world to translate and read to see who he really was and his objectives to incite riot, endless wars, and natural selection through the front lines. Camus got it right! Google could translate these volumes in a heartbeat. Why wait?
