Obama re-invaded Afghanistan to deflect from his failure to provide us with free and universal health careThis suits Moore fine because its diverting from his contention that the US should tax the rich to finance free and universal health care.Moore is a multi millionaire and he owes me money to help me pay my medical bills, like he did with a former detractor of his, Jim Kenefick "Draft rich kids." Michael Moore, millionaire many times over, give us, the poor in medical debt, your money

there are other socialist countries out there like the scandinavian countries or current germany that is able to provide their citizens better without resorting to the kinds of greedy capitalism that is displayed in america.

We have been prepared for socialism for 60+ years George Orwells shitty novel has been required reading. I think the above says it perfectly.

Please explain why you think the leader of the National Socialist German Workers Party was not socialist. This is historical revisionism in the extreme. Both Hitler and Mussolini were socialists who rejected the international aspects of the Marxist brand of socialism, but otherwise were "good" socialists.As for saying the Nazis were 60 years ago so we can repeat there mistakes is just idiotic.

That is not true. From 1979 to 1988 more people from the bottom 20% of income earners made it to the top 20% than remained in the bottom 20%. Overall 86% of people increased at least 1 quintile.What is wrong with people who work hard and build great things to be rich? They will then need to hire people and that will help lift the poor out over poverty. Under socialism the total wealth stagnates and everyone just gets poorer, sure maybe they're equal in the end, but equally poor.

But in capitalism there always ends up being the rediculaously wealthy and the destitutely poor, where the rich have more money than they need, and the poor dont have enough money for their needs.

Why won't some of the socialists here defend previous socialist countries like:Nazi GermanySoviet UnionPol Pot's Khmer RougeMao Tse Tung's ChinaAny takers? Defend your socialism cowards.The truth is that socialism has been the greatest evil, measured in terms of murdered people, in the history of humanity. When Hitler is only 3rd place on socialism's mass murder list that should be a red flag.

Lol so true.I think traditional capitalism is the worst of them all, litterally.Socialism has a bad image because it was always bad adminstrations that took advantage of the name. That's not real socialism.If you've seen Sicko, especially when he talks about France, that's how perfect sense works.

American capitalism is NOT free market capitalism, never has been, maybe in pioneer days.It has ALWAYS been State Capitalism, where the government subsidizes big business, going back at least to Civil War days.Many of the Founders of America were "landed gentry" in England, like royal family. US capitalism is like contract feudalism.Check out what Kevin Carson wrote on that. He cites Mises, Rothbard, and Marx, but comes to different conclusions.

Not like he is poor or starving. I wonder if he would be as successful in say a country like China? He'd probably be scrawny, forced to work in a labour camp and then have his organs harvested and sold to the highest bidder. Your right, he is a fake. I read two of his books, half of what he wrote was a drunken rant.

Oh yeah I must be an idiot for thinking that the National Socialist Party (Nazis for short) has socialists in it....Aside from Nazis being national socialists and Marxists being international socialists, what's the difference? Maybe some minor squabbles over how much to regulate vs nationalize, but they are both for totalitarian government and limited individual rights. They are both leftists and both socialists.

I've always heard that as:CAPITALISM: You have two cows. You sell one and buy a bull.This is why most socialists are very poor capitalists (of course excluding the greatest Socialist Capitalist of them all, Michael Moore).Your example is very telling. In socialism you would give your neighbor a cow, but the net production would not increase. In my capitalist example there would be more cows to go around.

SOCIALISMYou have 2 cows.You give one to your neighbour.COMMUNISMYou have 2 cows.The State takes both and gives you some milk.NAZISMYou have 2 cows.The State takes both and shoots you.TRADITIONAL CAPITALISMYou have two cows.You sell one, and force the other to produce the milk of four cows.Later, you hire a consultant to analyze why the cow has dropped dead.
