Sanders, Ocasio-Cortez keep lying about socialism

25

Bernie Sanders is perhaps the most dangerous presidential candidate of our lifetime. However, the mainstream media is allowing Sanders to lie unchallenged because of its hatred for Trump. If the Republicans continue to not aggressively attack Bernie Sanders for his insane policies, he could win in 2020.

“Sanders, Ocasio-Cortez keep lying about socialism,” by Justin Haskins, Fox News, April 1, 2019:

Story continues below advertisement

Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., have amassed a huge following among millennials by propagating the myth that the only way to solve society’s problems is to seize wealth and property away from law-abiding citizens so that the federal government has significantly more power over all of our lives.

However, history has proven repeatedly that the collective ownership and management of property eventually leads to death, destruction, coercion, and tyranny. More than 167 million people have been killed, exiled, or imprisoned by socialist and communist regimes in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. That’s comparable to more than 50,000 attacks as deadly as those that occurred on September 11, 2001.

Whenever socialism is tried, it fails miserably – whether it’s in China, Nazi Germany, North Korea, Russia, Venezuela, or Zimbabwe. Yet, despite the mountains of evidence against collectively owning and managing property, Sanders and Ocasio-Cortez continue to allege that anyone who argues against socialism is nothing more than an untrustworthy right-wing propagandist and that all people like Sanders and Ocasio-Cortez really want is to tweak the current system to make things better for the poor.

What’s wrong with Communism?
—————————
New polls released of Venezuelans today by #Meganalisis show that:
– Only 4.1% of Venezuelans recognize Maduro as president. Guaidó is recognized by 84.6%.
– 89.4% want Maduro and his power circle to leave power.
– 91.3% do not believe that Maduro and Chavismo will leave power through peaceful means and negotiation.
– 87.5% of respondents approve a foreign military mission in Venezuela to force dictator Maduro out of power and lead to a transition government run by Guaido.
– 84.3% reject the thesis of a sabotage to the electrical system and consider that the problem is the lack of maintenance and abandonment of it.
– 87.9% consider that socialism is the worst and most destructive political ideology to lead the government, because it brings conflicts, hunger, misery, delay, ends the future and takes away the hopes of the people.

Why aren’t people invading Venezuela and Cuba if communism is so great?
Why would they want to leave their communist utopia?

Exactly
– Cuba is a complete mess with $20 income per month
– everything rationed, poverty everywhere, starvation, early death
– no gas, they use horses
– stable-like hospitals, no medications, even soap is precious
– in a large, lush country, with much sunlight and water
– and potatoes are scarce! [how could that be? But it’s true]
– Venezuela had 20 years of socialism, and is now the same way…

“…..people like Sanders and Ocasio-Cortez really want is to tweak the current system to make things better for the poor.” Ok, here’s an idea. Let’s let Sanders and Occasional-Cortex move to Cuba for two years. If they are successful in turning that country around, they can come back and implement their wonderful utopian plan in the U.S. BUT…..if they are not, well, they’re already in Cuba. Passports revoked.

Have you ever noticed that Sanders never has a US flag on the stage at any of his gatherings? Never.

“A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world’s greatest civilizations has been 200 years. These nations have progressed through this sequence: From bondage to spiritual faith; From spiritual faith to great courage; From courage to liberty; From liberty to abundance; From abundance to selfishness; From selfishness to apathy; From apathy to dependence; From dependence back into bondage.” ― Alexander Fraser Tytler

Good points but Empires have lasted an average of 330 years while democracies average 200 – 250 years. The U.S. is near the 250 mark.

We are a representative republic, not a democracy. We were founded that way intentionally.

Would people really be that stupid to vote for this old fossil? Most likely as they probably voted for B.O. and Criminal Clinton.

Venezuela is on America’s doorstep, so is Cuba, are voters too thick to study those Socialist hell holes ?

The love of power over the lives of others is what drives socialists everywhere, just study Animal Farm, but it does seem that every generation of “bright young things” needs to learn the truth the hard bitter way, unless some are lucky and climb the slippery pole of power to do the bossing.

It is impossible to argue with idiots. They are going to believe what ever it is they want to believe, the facts be damned! You can spend three hours reciting fact after fact, and example after example on the MASSIVE failures of socialism and it will not sway them. All they will say is, “We will get it right this time.”
