Somewhat decent article from Yahoo, are Americans ready for Democratic socialism?

I do think Democratic socialism could be the nail in the coffin for the Dems this November.

Totalitarian socialism seems to work better.

Job losses and economic pain starting to happen due to a trade war could make that coffin lid swing open.

There is nothing stopping you from paying a 70% tax rate right now. Don’t wait for your democratic socialist queen to be elected President. Start doing it now

I like how they keep sneaking in 'democratic' in front of socialism. Evil fricking bastards.

"Hey guys! State control over economic exchange sure is fricking us up!"

"Yeah! Let's get more of that! There's an inverse Laffler curve on state controlled industries."

No dude this is democratic socialism. Instead of the state owning all economic exchange and leaving you with 20%, you still get to own businesses but just get taxed at an 80% rate. It’s really complicated you probably don’t understand.

That Ocasio Cortez is such a hilarious "socialist". I wouldn't even say she's a real socialist. She seems freaking clueless about most things.

She reminds me of someone who watched a few Bernie vids and read some facebook/twitter posts one day and now she's a "Democratic Socialist". And being a Millenial, "Democratic Socialism" is the new cool thing to do.

[i]Trump’s tax-cut legislation is unpopular

People dislike the Trump tax cuts because they feel the wealthy benefit too much and the middle class too little.


What a crock of shite...it is Yoohoo, so why am I surprised.

Nope, trade wars are still infinitely better than socialist shitholes.

Yahoo consistently has the most redpilled, mainstream media comments section.

It’s like all the people who signed up for yahoo before there was google. Theyre in their 40’s and 50’s and don’t gaf about PC culture. It’s funny and awesome

This would be me. I'm 40 and I created my Yahoo email account almost 15 years ago and I still use it out of habit. I usually avoid their shite news articles, but every now and then I will pop in for a laugh. And I don't give a frick about PC culture.
