Yeah gee why would taxpayers be angry at their tax dollars being wasted, man its so hard to figure out.

Your favorite jeet-African niggerdani is currently trying to figure out how to make his taxpayer funded government grocery stores work. Yesterday they announced they are currently examining a plan to give local bodegas in the area near the government store 'subsidies' (welfare) to prevent them being put out of business by the government store......... you couldnt even make this shit up if you tried.

mamdani is really just controlled opposition. he makes seething poors happy by promising some alternative, but all it amounts to is incremental reform like higher taxes for the rich and the same promises you always hear about. the same sentiment that makes people like luigi kill, and makes others celebrate him, is the same sentiment that drives people to vote for mamdani. but as there is no feasible or possible alternative to capitalist realism, mamdani exists as a pressure release value for the pent up hatred of the jealous seething masses wishing for such an alternative.

The money isn't liquid cash. It doesn't actually exist. It's just the value of their companies.
Also the fact the money they do have is saved or invested is a good thing because it results in more economic growth, ie. more goods and resources for the working class.

The working class receive 99% of the end product of production anyway(consumer goods and services). Taking saved money from capitalists and spending it is the same as printing money, it would just cause inflation and nobody would be better off.
When the government spends taxed dollars, it basically comes out of YOUR pocket.
>>541194425
>Ignoring democratic socialist policies in European and Asian nations during the same time frame.
Those were pretty rare. The ones that did exist bankrupted countries like Sweden so they reversed them and thrived.


>But please explain to me how a modest 4% tax increase on corporations and the highest tax bracket would lead to our descent into a command economy.
It wouldn't, but you're ignoring the fact everything is so fucked up right now due to the money printing, not a slight change in tax rates.
We're printing far more every month than what that 4% increase in taxes would bring.

>with no idea on what to replace the engine society with.

not really true socialists are statists who want to give all the power and wealth in society to the government in the absurd belief that it wont be corrupt and exhibit bias and favoritism as does literally everything humans do. They pretend to be helping people by giving out tax money but really their main agenda is giving more power to government bureaucrats. The reason people rightfully fear socialism is because it is like a cancer expanding government and giving out more entitlements which cannot be rescinded until the system collapses.

Reminder
Mamdani got 8 billion dollars from Hochul, so from now on every time upstaters say the city steals from the rest of the state, they're right.
Mamdani stole 8 billion dollars from the pension fund, and in a few years when the bill comes due there will be millions of hard working Americans that will get screwed out of their well earned money so that immigrants can do absolutely nothing with their lives, take up space, and make America a worse place
Mamdani is a curse to NYC and will be remembered as the worst mayor of all time

that's sort of an oversimplification since many if not most in the DSA are college educated whites who think they are going to be the ones running the socialist government and getting rich redistributing the funds stolen from the productive private sector people. They use race baiting to motivate voters. Literally every political issue is framed as correcting some supposed racial inequity from the past. example we need to raise billions in taxes to reroute this highway that was built though a black neighborhood by the evil white people.

Happens to be a valid example. It's always been tried in failed states where the locals can't keep their shit together and working no matter what system they're trying.

So I refreshed my memories on what happened in Sweden in the early 1990's. They were dumb enough to deregulate their financial institutions, which led to out of control debt and overheating of the housing market, until the bubble burst. Literally nothing to do with communism/socialism. If anything, the incident was used as an excuse to privatize perfectly well functioning government services, which is straight disgusting capitalism.

>>541197946
Sweden deregulated their financial institutions, which led to out-of-control lending. They also maintained the value of their currency, the Svenska krona, artificially high which hurt their exports. Nothing to do with communism, apart from the fact that the Soviet Union collapsed around that time which created a shock to the system across that whole region. "Brain drain" and "creativity being stifled" are the usual boogeymen used as an excuse by beggars to beg for (undeserved) tax breaks. Their neighboring Denmark taxes the shit out of the rich and is doing just fine, apart from the spastic orange retard threatening to steal clay from them.
>>
>>541194601
>Also the fact the money they do have is saved or invested is a good thing because it results in more economic growth, ie. more goods and resources for the working class.
this is the exact opposite of the truth. those monies have no velocity, meaning the dollars are only spend once or twice. working class money has velocity. you get paid, you buy groceries, the store buys more stock, etc.
this low velocity causes asset bubbles, which is growth which is based on nothing of any underlying value, like ai shit. these saving all go to assets, not consumer goods. this drives up the prices for everyone, as seen in the housing crisis driven by wall st buying up single family homes as investments.
the driver of the economy is consumer demand. if there is no demand for goods, and the working class has no money, the economy locks up. sales slow, and hiring stops or reverses. it also means the government has to run a deficit in order to keep the money supply circulating instead of stagnant in asset investment. otherwise, there would be nothing to spend. in a one to one way, all that saving and investment needs to be countered with new money supply. this is the only thing preventing widespread unemployment and business failure.
https://www.counterpunch.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/Killing-The-Host_PDF_V7.pdf

the government does not spend tax dollars, those dollars are effectively destroyed, a deflationary effect. the government creates new money each time it spends. the government does not need to tax in order to spend.

DSA are neocons.

This is a red pill none of you are ready for.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LGVkNi3fcMw

Democratic “Socialists” of America originate from the exact same roots as Neoconservatives. Specifically, they grew out of anti-populist and anti-Leninist tendencies AND Western chauvinism against Third World countries implementing Marxist-Leninist governments to gain their sovereignty. They are "Third Camp" Trotskyists. Both Irving Kristol and Michael Harrington were disciples of Trotskyist Max Shachtman and this legacy is carried by the DSA today.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jujUklScZuc

The ideology is also the same. Neocons despise ordinary people. Most neocons were former Trotskyists and Trotsky, likewise, HATED the working-class. Likewise, the godfather of Neoconservatism Leo Strauss saw himself and his students/cult followers as philosopher kings. This is largely because neoconservatism is an expression of Jewish supremacy. Jews believe they are the "CHOSEN PEOPLE" and seek to preserve their ethnocentrism and tribalism against the universal brotherhood of man brought into the world by Christ. You can't separate these things.

The Straussian cabal is very real and still holds loads of ideological power within American politics. It's my opinion that the DSA, in spite of claiming to be "anti-Zionist" and "anti-imperialist," are simply the next incarnation of the Neocons and will follow the exact Neocon playbook once elected. It's a known fact that many Neocons from the Bush II era have now since become Democrats and publicly supported Kamala Harris over Trump on the basis Trump wasn't Neocon enough (Bill Kristol comes to mind here). This must be exposed.

Those models req spending 12% of GDP so you will need 4 Trillion per year if you plan on paying nurses and doctors a low wage like Sweden of around $90k which won't fly so a more realistic cost is 15% of GDP.

However first you have to build all the hospitals
>Cost Per Bed: Ranges from roughly $940,000 for community general setups to $3 million+ per bed
You need at least 5-6000 hospitals so either build or buy private one's.

Doctors already work for private hospitals so you will need at least 500k filled positions of new doctors and they will all be haalloo saar I am Dr Vindaloo
