As we approach the implosion of Spain and Greece and the like, I thought I will bring that thread back.
BTW the problem is that socialism still alive and well, even if in a somewhat covered form, among many politicians in Europe and in the West at large.

Huh. An older video but interesting.
What do you guys think? I must admit I was never in Detroit, but it is shocking how the city deteriorated.
Solutions?

I'd argue that they didn't actually implement socialism. They, instead, implemented a corrupt system and tried to pass it off as socialism.
And America is already socialist. We are just less socialist than others and more socialist than others.
If any American says the socialism is evil, tell them that you'll be more than happen to take all of their police protection, fire department services, social security retirement, medicare benefits, and infrastructure from them. And, instead, they have to provide all those things for themselves. They are most certainly not allowed to use the USPS or public roads. And if their city pays for the sewage trash and water, they can't use those, either.
The USA: A Republican, Democratic, Socialist, State.

To bad it WASN'T and ISN"T SOCIALISM that Built and Maintains those Roads.
Which kinds of makes what Obama said kind of true..
No. YOU DIDN'T BUILD THAT!
Just another LIE of the LEFT!!!!!
And the USPS is pretty much a FAILED Entity at this point so....I can agree with that one being an example of Socialism.

Every developed country, America included, has both socialist and capitalist aspects of governing.
So "is it socialist or capitalist?" shouldn't be what decides policy, what should decide policy is what is the most beneficial and whether the positives outweigh the negatives.

I'm not sure what you think I was arguing, but my post was simply asserting that calling a country socialist or capitalist was an oversimplification.
If you want an overly simplistic argument for why we should adopt more socialist policies, here ya go:

Okay, if you're saying something is above what is expected, it's "too," as in, "too bad." If you're wanting to go somewhere like, the shop to buy some beer, it's "to," as in, "I'm going to the shop to buy beer." If you want to use the number, it's two.

Untill you substantiate either claim, that's nothing more than a conspiracy theory.

So it’s only socialism if it doesn’t work very well?

Well, tbf, Russia, China, Laos, Vietnam, Cuba, Venezuela and Argentina were not real socialism.
Real socialism is Denmark, Finland, the Netherlands and Sweden.

So you’re saying that roads, the police, firefighters, the military, etc. don’t work?

^ Sorry to chime in, but that's a strange argument to make. I'm pretty sure roads/police/military etc =/= socialism, gven that they have existed in staunch capitalist countries etc.
Socialism is basically focused on the notion of centralization.

The US clearly isn't working based on your words.
So feel free to GTFO of the US, then. We spent trillions of dollars on socialist programs.

Nope, sorry, you're wrong!
Those roads are paid for and maintained with money taken from the citizens. Collective control of goods and services. Socialism.

Dude, Fly doesn't even know what time it is, let alone know how to deal with any form of complex reasoning. It's pointless arguing with him about anything, he's either a committed hardcore troll or just a bonafide mouth breather.
