Stimulus & Bailout Watch Thread

[Shogun]

Capitalism has no "flavor" that encouraged government owning shares in private companies. There's nothing misleading in government selling it's shares of GM. Unless you're about to juelz the meaning of owning shares

What bailed out companies do with tax money is always a debate/controversy, so saying that companies "free to do what they want with the money" is bullshyt. It's the basis of progressives' and libertarians' ire

Hoover's actions was socialist, but it doesn't make him socialist. If you steal candy during checkout, don't mean you're a klepto

Hoover, Obama, and Trump administrations prove that "flavors" of socialism/communism is needed by captialism

Being a shareholder has nothing to do with deciding how the money is spent. Nada. None of your bullshyt will change that.

you don’t understand socialism.

smh. The government having shares in a company and the government conditional bailout of companies, which limits how tax money is used, are obviously two different roles
Instead of telling me what I don't know, tell me something you actually know/understand because that Hoover example is sus

The government moving capital over to the private sector is the opposite of socialism.
That’s what I know.

lol. Please explain.

 

[Shogun]

lol. Please explain.

You realize the purpose of the bailouts is to preserve the market, right? You’re arguing that the government moving public funds to the private sector in order to save the marketplace is socialist. It’s ludicrous. You’ve taken enough of my time with this bullshyt. Stick to the Jacobin.

...can't explain the terms you're using but is confident that it describes what's currently happening. Now you see the reason for the last two Presidential Democrat primary results

Socialism/Communism/Capitalism all caters to a type of market, as Venezuela, China, and USA economy proves. So saying "preserve the market," don't mean anything

The moment the government gets involved, we transition away from free market capitalism...no amount of juelzing or random use of terms you can't explain, changes that reality

The government handing out cash isn’t socialism. The opposite is socialism.
