[comrade666]

Every single 1st world country in the world.

Yes every first world country has used elements of socialism in their development.

Gas is an innocent dude. You don't really have to converse with him. His pimp is Willie and Gas is only allowed to speak his mind when Willie allows it. I root for the fella, but he's just not very bright.

I know I'm a bit late to the France debate, but just because they're a world power doesn't mean they will always be one or they're on the right track. Rome, Greece, Egypt, the Ottoman Empire, etc, were all world powers too.

World power? they cant even stand up to Putin. All european countries are Putins bitch.

Norway a mixed economy is number one in human development index! How can this be?

 

[GasMan]

Dumbass...we live in a mixed economy.

 

[comrade666]

Dumbass...we live in a mixed economy.

Well technically the majority of countries have some elements of a mixed economy. And under some variables the us does show highly in rankings for mixed economies. But true mixed economies from a socialist point of view have way more extensive social services, state owned companies. Etc. I already mentioned the us mixed economy being reason for the us boom after ww2

Socialism is the future. Socialism is the moral ideology. Socialism is the ideology that is actually based on reality.

The wealthy control the world

 

[Carminethewop]

You're a Fucking idiot. How much do you give to charity to help the poor? I guarantee you give nothing. Commie fuck

 

[ScottL]

Socialism is the future .......The wealthy control the world

You killed your own argument. Both statements cannot possibly be true.

Most people with ethics who are willing to work hard will achieve success. Some people will encounter bad luck and fail.

Some others will lay on their ass and become a millionaire when a relative leaves them a fortune.

This does not mean those who are willing to produce should give a free ride and work so that the lazy don't have to. That's socialism and it fails everywhere it's attempted. And in socialist countries there's always corruption at the top anyway.

First off it doesn't always fail. that's false.
second my statement did not contradict itself. Socialism is the future. The wealthy control the world currently.

False. Countries on an upward track that then put in some socialistic elements aren't socializing their way to first world status.

What you're asking about is extremely rare using capitalism or socialism.
Europe has had immense success with mixed economies.
One could argues the us had their immense success following world war 2 using some socialist policies.
One more thing the Latin American countries who have now implemented some socialism in their economies are having success.

Europe doesn't have our GDP growth at all, and relied heavily on US subsidies after WWII. Chile has seen the most growth in Latin America since the 1970s and they have a freer economy than the US.
