You need to give communism a couple centuries with capitalism funding to really give it a chance.
Communism always needs capitalism (to seize things) since communism itself never creates or produces anything…except shared misery I suppose.

And this moron thought this was the "gotcha" that would save his radical muslim buddy in this thread.
This is beyond hilarious and insulting to anyone with a brain.
This is not what his hero promised.

If your ideal needs magic to work, you follow a shitty ideal.

States that are not sanctuary and illegals being removed are seeing a buyers market develop. More inventory, big incentives to buy new homes, etc.

Not happening anytime soon
Billionaires are staying put there which is a huge part of the problem

We actually did have a functional form of socialism in the country at one time.
Are you familiar with George Fitzhugh? He was a bureaucrat within the Confederate government.
Fitzhugh pointed out that, "slavery is a form, and the very best form, of socialism."
In his view, the concepts of “freedom” and “slavery” were not absolute moral categories but relative conditions whose meaning depended on the broader social order in which they operated. Thus the 'benevolent slaveholder" argument flourished.
In engaging with Marxist theory, Fitzhugh adopted a deliberately inverted reading of Marx’s critique of capital. Rather than abolishing hierarchy or private authority, he argued that labor should be permanently subordinated to social authority, a position he framed as a form of hierarchical or paternalistic socialism.
The Progressive movement was initiated to restore the social order of the slave-master relationship.

Something about doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results?

You guys need to understand, the only reason Socialism and Communism have failed is they were never applied correctly. The US is the only Nation in the World with the capability to make them work as designed.

Increase taxes on property owners and expect rental prices to drop. Makes sense
Freeze the rent so it makes it completely unaffordable for smaller landlords so the government can buy up all the housing they can for pennies on the dollar of desperate sellers with no buyers of cash loss properties.
All part of the plan

The Muslim commie is using the Detroit method of housing development.

The very first group healthcare plans in the US were purchased by slaveholders who hired doctors to visit their plantations. This was done to protect their investment and/or inventory of slaves.
Today we call them voters and the healthcare plan is called Medicaid.
AFDC of the 1980s was designed to kick the male out of the home.
Shades of the Roman system used during antebellum slavery for control purposes..

The entitlement of people who seem to think they should be able to afford to live wherever they want to live. I want to live in an oceanside home in Corona Del Mar, California. No why I don't? Because I can't afford it and other people who can, live there. It's not injustice. It's called life. frick off.
