Socialism Fails Every Time

a followup on this video.

John Stossell wrote an article about socialism. That was nice of him to let Alvarez guest host his youtube channel.

I didn't know he wrote an article on this video, let alone have a youtube page! Originally Posted by dilbert firestorm

I'm seeing an uptick in the number of Venezuelan women checking out my profile on SA. Those women obviously understand that capitalism works

I've been getting quite a few hits from them too.
If socialism drives a few smoking hot Venezuelan babes to the US, I would say that at least in some measure it has succeeded! LOL
Maybe they are just looking for a dumb american to marry, so they can get a green card.

there are a number of areas in the U.S. economy that are considered fascistic, fascism with a light touch.

example: in the automobile industry and refining industry,, these are regulated. fuel cafe standards, gas mileage standards, and forced addition of ethanol into gasoline. Originally Posted by dilbert firestorm

this is the govt. telling businesses what they must make or they get fined.

the addition of ethanol blends into gasoline is fascist.

arbitrary gas mileage for vehicles which leads to safety issues with cars.

setting Fuel CAFE standard is a legitimate govt. regulation when dealing with smog.

however, its still fascist. the govt. mandates 20 different blends on the market.
