Smart nutcase = Oxymoron, right?
Why do socialist supporters say to every socialism de-supporter that they don't know what socialism is just because they don't support it? |

You like the massive job loss, a useless war, the federal government's horrible allocation of resources etc.?
There's a reason we didn't vote McCain/Palin in. That's because they were staunch advocates of something that would destroy the U.S.

I'm a Communist, not a Democrat. Secondly, that is what it was like before Obama came in.
The market was failing due to deregulation caused before the Dems took over, so your argument is flawed. |

Actually the market failed because of legislation that forced banks to loan to riskier clients. |
|

Again, by a Democrat. Not a Communist. I do believe that was also under Clinton, not as soon as the Dems took over congress. |

However, your blaming of Republicans is misplaced, and this actually started when Carter was in office. |
|
|
If we had an economy wherein that people actually owned their houses, and didn't belong to banks, so many foreclosures wouldn't have happened.
If we had an economy where we weren't pushed on to gamble with our mortgages and loans, we wouldn't have this problem in the first place. |

Wouldn't doubt it. It was advanced with Reagan though. Even more advanced with Clinton, and pushed to it's limits with Bush. |

If you are smart with your money it is not a gamble. There is no way you could pay $300,000 without taking out a loan. You would have to give out free houses. Which would be communism which would not work for other reasons. |
|
|
Why would the government giving houses to the working class not work? |
|
|
You're also implying that people are smart with their money. Which they aren't.
The average person doesn't have much in mind about basic economics. They just want what's best for them. |

Get rid of the monetary system, or use the resources wisely. (Wood, concrete, etc.)
In a Communist system, you have no need for the monetary system, other than for the working class to buy goods with. |

If the government gave the people the houses the government would own them instead of the banks. |
|
|
I'd rather a government who relies on me and that I can legally take down (elections) own my house, then a bank who has to make profit off of me. |

My God, Patsfan Got Owned! *Gasps* |

The government is corrupt and their people only look out for their self interests.. Therefore I'd rather a bank own my house, so they can make profit and provide thousands of jobs for other people.

If the government owns your house, and essence your life if in communism they feed you they don't have to listen to you. They can just kill you or make it so you won't be fed.
If a democratic government controls everything than what stops them from becoming a dictatorship. |
