Our response to the challenge "show me an example of pure socialism working anywhere" is "show me an example of pure capitalism working anywhere." We tried it in America and got the Gilded Age and Great Depression. Pure capitalism doesn't work. It's time to try something new.

Truth.

Your private insurance is a Ponzi scheme. #MedicareForAll

Crazy crazy ideas. #utpol

I frankly do not understand why Republicans seem to hate providing health care to the American people.

Look at this picture. When you’re looking at this photo, you’re looking at a mirror. This is America. This is Texas. This is our the course of action, the one we chose. I cannot and will not accept it. #EndFamilySeparation& #AbolishICE & #ReuniteFamilies & Stop #BackersOfHate

Workplaces in capitalist society are modeled after plantations: People who do nothing (a privileged minority) constantly telling people who do everything (the working majority) to do more. Modern slave revolts (workers uniting & defeating our overseers) are the only way out.

Socialism for the rich, capitalism for the poor.

Bernie Sanders on eliminating private health insurance: “get rid of the insurance companies” https://t.co/96QSsI7QZH

This system is anti-family. It’s that simple. It’s that immoral. #utpol

Pope Francis: 'Let’s get this in our heads: food is not private property'.

Some people rise to the challenges we face. Others ignore them, or worse: pretend that sex can solve them. #utpol

“Instead of asking how to pay for it, we’re asking why the wealthiest country in the world shouldn’t have the best universal healthcare system for all?”

Early American socialists like Eugene Debs fought for free speech rights as a bulwark against state tyranny and employer despotism. We should take up their radical struggle for civil liberties today.

It's been almost six months since Amazon raised its minimum wage to $15. Why hasn't @Walmart, owned by the richest family in America, also started paying all their employees a living wage of $15 an hour?

No community has faced more discrimination in this country than African Americans. That’s why we need to form a commission that studies the legacy of slavery and structural inequality to come up with solutions that account for these grave injustices.

Capitalism began in England around the 16th century. They immediately went on to colonize half the planet in search of new markets, committed multiple genocides, traded slaves, and engaged in constant war. In school we learn about how communism is evil because of a famine.

The question we face as a nation: Will we continue to allow private health insurance companies to profit off of human suffering? Or will we end that disgrace and make health care a right through Medicare for All?

Why are we as society prioritizing the sick and afflicted last? Shouldn’t we protect the family first? #utpol

Why didn't Boeing do it right? Why isn't FB protecting user passwords? Why is Phillip Morris allowed to promote vaping? Why hasn't Wells Fargo reformed itself? Why hasn't Monsanto (now Bayer) recalled its Roundup Weedkiller? Answer: Corporate greed coupled with inept regulators.

For every one billionaire in America there are about 70,000 people living in poverty. I don't think it's a radical idea to say that we should make sure our people's basic human rights are met before giving tax breaks to the richest 1%.
