Which is why I'm trying to figure out why Trump is criticizing Mamdani when Trump is engaging in Socialist policies by forcefully taking stock positions in American companies. This is just the start on the long road to socialism or fascism, take your pick. Both involve government ownership or control of private companies.

Who knew Snake Plissken was a prophet and Escape from New York was a documentary? Personally, I can’t wait for the shit show. The dipshits that vote for this deserve the misery and empty shelves that await them.

Under Democratic Socialism every voter is given to believe that he or she will have the authority to determine the "how much" in the old slogan of "from each according to ability, to each according to need." Suckers...

We have Crony Capitalism. Zohran is a fraudster, he wants it all. Yogi was right. "In theory there's no difference between practice and theory; in practice there is." Makes no sense when you drill down, but at face value...it does.

A major problem the socialists don't understand, or don't want to understand, is that their policies destroy innovation and investment. No investor is going to invest time and money to create a better service or product if they know their efforts and their future rewards, if any, will be controlled by the central planners.

And, of course, some are more equal than others.....

What a load of crap.

Mamdumbshit is the apotheosis of the last 110+ years of "Progressivism" (which is just Communism "prettied up" for the gullible). Sad to say - economically and financially there's very little difference between his thinking and the President's.

Otoh - I personally don't give a shit what happens to the Rotten Apple. Just sayin'.

I am 91 and lived in socialist UK years ago before moving to the US and recently to another country. I moved because of socialism. Every major industry was owned by the government and were losing money. There was no incentive. Desperately depressing. Now look at the UK. There is not return, unfortunately.

Labels. How is a country $38T in debt any better off? Bullies and sheep. Keep it simple.

Saw one if these cucks post something earlier about submitting his 456th resume looking for work as a scrum leader.

I had to look that shit up. Getting tired of being a producer in every capacity while simultaneously seeing diminishing returns all around.

Did it ever occur to anyone that Mandami might just be promising the world to get elected, much like Trump did before him? How many campaign promises did Trump keep so far?

I believe that I have to credit @arnoldkling for this phrasing, but New Yorkers are poised to get Democratic Socialism, good and hard.
