It offers absolution without       repentance. It promises security without sacrifice. That’s why it       sells so well. And that’s why young people are loving it. ...       -----------------------------              Thank you for posting that.              Socialism is the protection children need, continued through adult life.              This illustrates Social Equity and Redistribution, and inadvertently that it       is for children.       https://interactioninstitute.org/illustrating-equality-vs-equity/              https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Pan_syndrome              "It refers to "never-growing" people who have reached an adult age, but       cannot face their adult sensations and responsibilities."              Socialism offers the hollow promises they won't have to, they will be       supported by "society", the other equally helpless children. The productive       ones who can't leave learn to join them or become their elite masters.       Essentially socialism replaces democracy with a feudalism of powerful lords       with armed retainers enforcing their will and dependent peasants farming       land they can't own, kept in their place by a faith functionally similar to       medieval religion.              If the Left actually cared about the "underprivileged" it would offer them       the REAL privilege of learning how to become self-supporting. That could       start with free English classes for legal immigrant families. But then they       might succeed, resent being taxed to support others and be lost to the       Republicans.              https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hispanic_and_Latino_conservatism_i       _the_United_States       "Over the next decade, Ronald Reagan viewed Hispanic and Latino social       values as closely related to conservative values, as both tended to place an       emphasis on religious faith, family, and hard work."              The richest man I know came here as an immigrant child with nothing except       motivation. I've seen him tending the flowers in front of a gated community,       looking like Manuel the laborer instead of the real estate developer who       built it. The giveaway was that his nearby vehicle was an Escalade.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
