Capitalism produces EVERYTHING socialists/communists wish to “redistribute.”
Socialism/communism produces NOTHING socialists/communists wish to “redistribute.”
Socialism/communism can only exist as a parasite of a capitalist host.
Socialists/communists run out of things to “redistribute” the minute they succeed in destroying their capitalist host.
Not to mention that Communists murdered more than 100,000,000 of their own citizens in the 20th century alone.

What's her track record as a predictor of the future?
You could wipe capitalism off the map right now, and within sixty seconds...it’d come right back. It’s kinda like Kudzu...you can’t wipe it out.
She may be right. I strongly suspect this country will go Socialist once enough of us have gone on to that great Tea Party in the Sky.
As Winston Churchill said, you can count on the American People to do the right thing, once they have exhausted all of the alternatives.
And this is an alternative we haven’t tried yet.
Throughout history, every social/political system yields 1% of the population with all the power, 10% of the population who exist to service the 1%, and who live sort of OK. The rest are dirt.
Capitalism with its protection of private property and rewards for work and accomplishment is the ONLY exception.
Sounds on the surface like there’s a lot to debunk.
Maybe Trump’s best success is the lack of obsession about him on Main Street. Even my outwardly liberal politics favoring friend who doesn’t like Trump is being “don’t worry, be happy.”
A real command economy would take every pain and give you every pain that you knew the “Beloved Leader” as in NK.
In a collective, the individual is an expenditure.
When times are tough, you reduce expenditures to survive. Good luck with that. History proves the point.
Democratic socialism: An economic system where you get to vote to select who’s going to take away everything you own.
What a gift she is to us!

Got any other predictions up your sleeveless there Madam Curie?
You know there is a chance she could loose this election. I know the democrats probably outnumber republicans 10-1,BUT will they vote for a lunatic?
“No, you won’t accept Communism outright; but we’ll keep feeding you small doses of Socialism until you will finally wake up and find that you already have Communism. We won’t have to fight you” ~ Nikita Khrushchev

Crazy Eyes is baaack!
She wants Americans to eat their pets!
Our founders had a better word or phrase for it than capitalism. They summed it up as our unalienable God-given right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
We are free to own private property, be secure in our homes and private effects, operate a farm or business, enjoy the fruits of our own labor, freely worship God, freedom of speech, right to self-defense and to bear arms, freedom from the heavy hand of government intervention, intrusion or force, etc, etc, ie, our American way of life. No other country on earth was ever conceived where we the people actually run the show and are constitutionally guaranteed the rights to enjoy such God-given freedom.
Socialism is anti-God, anti-freedom, anti-American.
Leftist revolutionaries suck.
This brainwashed groupie is a useful idiot.
Well, if Capitalism goes, Socialism goes down, too. This Affirmative Action graduate from Boston College doesn’t know that money for “social justice” doesn’t grow on trees. Margaret Thatcher, a true intellectual, said it best, “The problem with Socialism is that eventually you run out of other people’s money.”
Of course it will, you ninny!
Who’s gonna pay the bills?
