it all comes down to this by duke/rae
this november, we americans have a choice to make. and the lines are distinctly drawn.first lets define the meanings of the two combatants.
#capitalism : means a system in which buisnesses (big or small) compete for your dollar based on quality, price etc. .
#socialism : a social and economic system that controls all buisinesses, maintaining funds through taxes.
now that we scratch the serface, we can say either side looks,and sounds pretty good. But once you get into the nitty gritty,youll

cont: that they are not so equal. for instance, in a socialist country you have free services, seems cool right? but you pay a portion of your money for that service in taxes.( average taxes in socialist countries are over 50 percent). you end up paying in taxes more then you would,had you independently paid for that service. not to mention you pay for stuff you dont use. if college were funded by the government, youd pay taxes on it for tuition, regardless of wether or not you choose to go to college. healthcare now adays provides abortions, funded by the government, pay taxes into a system that covers something you may never use!!!! socialism preaches equality, and yet it still unfair.

capitalism, our nations current system, is less lopsided,rather than burdenig the wealthy (who earned the right to be wealthy through years of hard work) to lower them to the center, capitalism raises all those who put effort into thier job. while in socialist countries,every one is paid the same, capitalism allows you to climb the ladder as you see fit. how many of us would love to get rich some day,i certainly would!! thats only possible in capitalism where your only as good as your work ethic, the more you put in, the more you get out of it. and a sixty year old man wont be stuck paying for a twenty year old mans tatoo removals. in capitalism, if you own a small bussiness, (as i do), then you have an equal shot at customers by competition,the better the quality of your product, the more money you make!

final point: capitalism made this country what she is!!! a thriveing hub of small bussiness activity, while socialism collapsed the USSR,Greece,France....(need i go on?)
the bottom line is, we have a choice to make, we all know that the democrats want socialism, but now that you know the truth, what do you want?

And anyone remembers how Columbus came into America, slaughtered, raped, and enslaved Native Americans? That sounds like a great country to me.
And by the way, Democrats do NOT want socialism. They are also capitalists. Socialists (present!) want socialism.
