It's so amazing how, when you set out to do research which confirms your preconceptions, you find evidence to support your ideas. #ConfirmationBias

Also, I have no preconceptions towards socialism. I've done the research and heard the arguments. Socialism is not something I will ever support. And I hope our country agrees with me.

Thank you as well! This is a video that I think everyone needs to see. Conservatives as a whole haven't done a good enough job explaining the downfalls of socialism.

Or, I just recognize that rather than using government force to take from one and give to another, the government should stay out of it and let people live their lives freely.
It's not about free crap to me. I don't want free stuff. I want the government to leave me alone.

Too bad Bernie is for democratic socialism.. But don't let me stop you from tossing a slippery slope or a false equivalence my way..

You are one of far too many people in need of Bernie's free education if you truly believe that. You must not be at all familiar with how we already have public institutions that are democratically socialized..

Or that we've had them for ages. Why don't you just call him a communist, like all the other idiots that don't know the difference..

Ok, well good luck living in the 19th century, wild west part of town, that doesn't exist. Maybe try not using public roads, postal service, police, firefighters, schools, etc. Oh, that's pretty much impossible, unless youre

Hawk, democratic socialism is the same thing as socialism. It's like he added on "democratic" in front of the word "socialist" just so he can claim he's not a real "socialist".
The policies they want are the same.

Just some miserable aroraphobic hermit that never leaves the dissatisfying comfort of your home. And the privatization of those institutions is such a joke. Forget thinking of taxes as theft. You'd just call it highway robbery

Paying that much more for privatized services, which you'd undoubtedly get less of. Why don't you just go live in Somalia? You won't have to worry about public services holding you down there. All the freedom in the world in Somalia..
