both are inferior to communism
I found this video interesting. Maybe you will as well.
Who's correct, or are both correct, or are both wrong?
A pointless argument, capitalism is superior and won out long ago. I'm shocked a business show would even waste their time with this. What are they, an online discussion board?
That aside, the democrats are not moving towards socialism. They were far more liberal decades ago and weren't socialist then either.
In action, Bernie was a New Deal Coalition kind of guy, which was good but sadly didn't convince enough people.
The thing is, pure socialism and pure capitalism are disasters.
It's about balance people.
BALANCE.
That's all, in an attempt not to make a equal society, because that's impossible, but to make an equitable society.
There are things, I believe, that should remain in the hands of the people, Healthcare for example, it's not about socialism or not socialism just because the government has anything to do with it.
We the people, simply use our combined resources to create an institution that benefits society on the whole, using the government as a middle man.
That's not any form of pure socialism or a soul crushing handout that destroys businesses and the economy or entrepreneurial drive.
Whereas the very predatory form of capitalism in the form of Americas healthcare system destroys the economy by making family after family after taxpaying citizen completely bankrupt and destitute and in some cases disabled because they cannot pay for full treatments.
Oh look, the guy CLAIMING to be about not being political uses his views to abuse the Conservative right in the false claim of not being political. What a joke. You're so far left Bernie is mocking you.
Fox news is stupid and they lie.
Very in-depth argument.
The facts tend to do that. However, the truth of the matter is that the Democrats have been Socialist for a long time before Sanders. He just shed a bright light on the facts and wanted to expand Socialism even furhter.First thing the Fox interviewer says is that Sanders has managed to drag the Democrats into socialism. After an idiotic and outrageously over the top statement like that, there's nothing else to say.

Well, since you believe that the Democrats are socialist, then indeed, Fox News is the place for you. The rest of us in the free world will continue to live in reality.

I don't watch Fox News, the video is from Fox Business Channel (like the difference between MSNBC and CNBC) which I also do not watch, and I saw the video on LiveLeak and then picked it up to put here from YouTube.
You've made a number of wrong assumptions and outright inaccurate statements in this thread alone, so that your posts are so full of inaccuracies that I would suggest you double check your facts before posting.
Even the recent DNC Chairman had to do a two step to not admit that the Democrats and Socialists are the same thing:
And... still couldn't do it later on in another interview:
Why is that? Because, there is no relevant difference. The Democrats are the party of Progressive Socialism.
Fox is Fox dude. If you go to Disney Land, you're going to get "Disney".
The Idea that Sanders has turned the Democrats into socialist is idiotic.

You just absolutely ignored what I said and just started typing, didn't you?
I gave your ridiculous comments the respect they were due.
I tell you what, other than your posts I was trying to have a respectful conversation. If you continue to choose differently, then please leave me out of it from now on.
