What we are seeing in France and other countries in Europe

Well, if you want to go that route, capitalism has killed many millions of people too. Shall we delve into the numerous wars for profit, or the business-driven destruction of the environment?

Or maybe we can just go that you're spouting idiotic rhetoric and have no idea what the **** you're talking about.

Don't forget slaves were bought, sold, and treated like goods on the free market to support capitalist enterprises.

It makes more sense to blame capitalism for slavery than socialism for Stalin's or Mao's atrocities.

100% correct. It's almost like these people don't know anything about history.

Mainly by democrats.

Mainly by democrats that invented the KKK when Lincoln freed the slaves. Now we have abortion doctors doing the job of the KKK, also supported by democrats.

Observe what we are seeing in France and other countries in Europe. Right now it is worse in France, but what we are seeing happens with all socialist countries. THEY HAVE RUN OUT OF OTHER PEOPLES MONEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Socialism has killed approx 100,000,000 people and ruined the lives of hundreds of millions more. It simply doesnt work.

Isn't Macron considered the President for the rich, and aren't socialists trying to oust him?

 

[Lovebug]

Thanks for that pearl of ignorance. Could you, pray tell, explain why the Commuist/Socialist China is the World's leading economy?

Well, we could say that they are playing greedy capitalists rather well.

When the French ever do actually figure out what they want, wake me up will ya'. Until then...

That rabble in France is so disorganized that they make ANTIFA look like a well oiled machine. These "protests" are entirely spontaneous or driven by an Internet posting that can come from anywhere. They are so disorganized that the National Police cannot even identify who Macron could talk to if he wanted to negotiate with some form of Protest "leadership". Some are protesting about plastic bottles though I can'e even actually be sure what end of the plastic bottle issue they are protesting. Some protesting about the gas tax, some about wages, some about every tom dick and larry thing that might upset a Frenchman. That could include everything from the texture of croissants to nuclear power on any given day.

The French National Police are no slouches. They are pretty hard nosed. Make no mistake, if they can't even find somebody for Macron to talk to, there isn't anybody.

If they are so disorganized, how come Macron and basically the entire world took notice?

France is not a socialist country.

You Trump Fans may want to open a history book sometime.

In any case what was tried in France was the radical left idea of taxing people to force them to follow a stupid radical left idea. That people is a really bad idea. I have NEVER understood people that want to control the live of other people. Glad to see people fight back for their freedom.

 

[Praxas]

well most of those tend to be liberals so you might have a point

Really, go ahead and show us then unless of course you are just posting dishonest comments, AGAIN.

Unless those in charge are conservatives and then you are just fine with them controlling the lives of people.

For the largest part conservatives DO NOT try to control everything people do thru huge government and thousands of regulations. We are against both. Every time a new regulation is put in place some one loses another freedom.

Its rather comical to note that what France was attempting to enact is the very policies that those are now rioting over demanded.

That our CURRENT POTUS was wise enough to get us OUT OF...Thank God....

 

[Grokmaster]

Instead we need to have the .05% run and ruin the lives of hundreds of millions of people.

Yes...the Leftist Elite/UN must be deposed...and they WILL BE..

 

[Grokmaster]

Macron decided to implement changes that France needs, make it more business friendly, but as you can see are incredibly unpopular. Macron is the president France needs, but doesn't want.

Yeah France needs to collapse its economy to appease the US Income Redistribution Carbon SCAM....

Your comments are just partisan garbage and will be placed in the normal idiotic con garbage bin. Go spew off in Stormfront with your worthless rhetoric like you normally do.

However socialism is NEVER moderate. The commies in charge try to control EVERY aspect of its citizens lives, and makes them slaves to the state.

This is definitely a danger that must be guarded against at all costs. Libertarian-style small government and free-market capitalism is a fool-proof way to guard against totalitarian governments seizing power and eliminating freedom. But it is also economically unstable and can lead to lengthy depressions that can kill just as many people as totalitarian communism. (It can also lead to the biggest and most successful corporation assuming the mantle of totalitarian government.)

Why not regulate just enough to stabilize the economy and guard against these depressions? Carefully implemented socialist policies can do wonders for economies, so long as they prevent too much concentration of power in the hands of too few. A number of countries have accomplished this, some with great success.

Arguing against socialist policies for fear of 'big brother' in the current state of affairs in the US is more of a knee-jerk reaction than anything else. The US is very much a free-market capitalist society with all the economic uncertainty that entails. The US is in fact an extremely right leaning conservative country economically speaking. They could drift to the left and socialize quite a bit, in the process likely boosting the economy to levels never seen before, without any fear of a totalitarian government takeover. That's the beauty of democracy. Overreach can be mitigated by the voting public. An extremely progressive democratic government dominating all branches of government for the next few decades would still leave the US right of center. Freedom is in American blood regardless of party. It just would not be nearly so far right as conservatives would prefer.

3 of the top four are clear liberals with Bezos being ambivalent since he has supported Dems and Republicans

Define socialism. You can't. You don't know what you're talking about.
