    I know of at least one who claims to be a Southern gentleman.
     
  4. New generation found it attractive. A lot of newbies are OK to take money from “rich” BBs and give it to them. Look at NYC story.
    If properties don’t belong to certain people, so it’s right place to take part of it and in time make it garbage.
    If you regulate the price of product below its production expenses - who will make this product.
    These stupid humans never were scared by “real socialism” never know about why Soviet Union was collapsed.
    Do they want to try ? :( :( :(

  9. US people who like socialism, young people who is brain washed started in colleges by professors.
    These professors already living in communism society - we pay for their housing and other perks (for people who don’t know these details).
    If young person will be told this BS multiple times for years - guess what.
    Other tool is TikTok. CCP controlled it puts a lot of socialism BS in kids heads.
    Ask your kid. I did.
    We need to change it for ours kids future, it we still can control.
