Rich people deserve the death penalty

What does being successful have to do with happiness? Is $300 billion the line in the sand for you? What outcome are you expecting from killing the most successful of us?
I think Parker gave about the best answer to your question. Let me quote him:

They make their money off exploiting others for their greed. They have their nice summer and winter homes meanwhile slashing benefits. Their people work 50-60 hours a week and they enjoy their golf. They deserve to be burnt at the stake. **** these people
I hope that suffices.

So rich people should be killed just because they are rich?

That's crazy.

So, all rich people do this? You are eager to see the rich killed and yet you dont know much about them it appears.
 
Bernie is a social democrat, as is AOC. I am also a market socialist and a civil libertarian.


What does Germany have to do with anything? The Nazis weren't socialists. They named themselves national socialists to set themselves apart from the social democrats (the real socialists ) who were the popular opposition party.

Donald Trump is the Nazi/fascist.

Social Democrats know that government cannot effectively run a business.
They just want to take a large percent of profit and redistribute as they see best.
Current Germany is much like this.

Being successful was important to me. I enjoyed being so and the challenges to stay in business and prosper. Now I am comfortably retired.
 
Nobody but NOBODY needs $300 BILLION to be happy.
Nobody has this in cash at their fingertips. It's a number accrued from assets and some what of a wild ass guess.

The government is the opposite of a business. It exists to provide a service.

A social democracy means the businesses are in privation hands but owned by the workers/customers instead of just private shareholders or one person.
They just want to take a large percent of profit and redistribute as they see best.
What is this supposed to mean?

Maybe Trump will deport me back to where my ancestors emigrated from.

No, not according to Bernie and AOC. They just want a cut of the profits to redistribute.

Tell me more about this redistribution of wealth because its something only conservatives ever claim.

Point to a form of socialist country you like as an example.

Red, I'll be frank. I learned a long time ago never to go against a mod--and you're a double threat as an Administrator. So I hope you'll forgive me if I bow out under fear of being suspended. Have a wonderful day. :)
 
How will it be redistributed? I never get these memos from my George Soros decoder ring.
Yeah, I'm not sure on that either. Or when will this country move to any kind of socialist typed state?

YOU are how and why Trump won. If you want to live in a socialist shithole, there’s quite a few places in South America to choose from. Need help backing your bags?

You have nothing to fear. I'm simply trying to understand why you find it acceptable to kill the rich and where the line is drawn, if there even is one.

While we're on that subject, wondering how people define rich these days? I mean, I'm comfortable, but I wouldn't call myself rich.
 
Incorrect

You have to expropriate their property and wealth first 😉

That's exactly what far left countries have done. Lenin, Mao, Pol Pot, and others all did exactly what you leftists here dream about doing.

Current Germany is much like this.

Early social democrats, like germany’s spd, were openly Marxist and called for abolishing capitalism through state ownership. But Marxist economics repeatedly led to disaster - mass starvation and economic collapse. Fascist and nazi governments demonstrated a different model: the state didn’t own the economy, but it controlled it tightly. That system was still oppressive, but far more efficient.

Ironically, that’s the model many modern left-leaning governments follow. Take Canada’s healthcare system: doctors remain private, but nearly every aspect of their work is dictated by the state. It's not ownership - it’s control. And for all practical purposes, that’s what matters.
 
Employee owned businesses and co-ops could build the same profitable companies. We dont need capitalism for jobs.
Aren't both of those essentially capitalist?
 
What's rich? My doctors are millionaires. Should we kill my doctors?

1 in 5 Americans are millionaires. That likely includes a lot of people on this board myself included. And for the record I'm solidly middle class and still work part time even though I'm retired

Many deserve the death penalty regardless of their bank account.
