Stalin’s gulag, impoverished North Korea, collapsing Cuba … it’s hard to name a dogma that has failed as spectacularly as socialism. And yet leaders around the world continue to subject millions of people to this dysfunctional, violence-prone ideology.
In The Politically Incorrect Guide to Socialism, Kevin Williamson reveals the fatal flaw of socialism — that efficient, complex economies simply can’t be centrally planned. But even in America, that hasn’t stopped politicians and bureaucrats from planning, to various extents, the most vital sectors of our economy: public education, energy, and the most arrogant central–planning effort of them all, Obama’s healthcare plan.
In this provocative book, Williamson unfolds the grim history of socialism, showing how the ideology has spawned crushing poverty, devastating famines, and horrific wars. Lumbering from one crisis to the next, leaving a trail of economic devastation and environmental catastrophe, socialism has wreaked more havoc, caused more deaths, and impoverished more people than any other ideology in history — especially when you include the victims of fascism, which Williamson notes is simply a variant of socialism.
Williamson further demonstrates:
* Why, contrary to popular belief, socialism in theory is no better than socialism in practice
* Why socialism can’t exist without capitalism
* How the energy powerhouse of Venezuela, under socialism, has become an economic basket case subject to rationing and blackouts
* How socialism, not British colonialism, plunged the bountiful economy of India into stagnation and dysfunction — and how capitalism is rescuing it
* Why socialism is inextricably linked to communism
If you thought socialism went into the dustbin of history with the collapse of the Soviet Union, think again. Socialism is alive and kicking, and it’s already spread further than you know.

Northern Europe nations like Norway & Germany have been democratic socialist governments since World War 2 ended.

The brave and heroic author of this book died after being abducted and tortured in one of Barack Obama’s FEMA camps. R.I.P.

@Doug - While we’re remembering the author, let’s not forget the 150 million human beings who actually were intentionally starved, tortured and murdered as a result of Marxism.
@Blazer - In many European countries, there are a varying degree of state supports and programmes, but actual Socialism? No. It scares off investment. Where there is public provision anongside private provision, people will go private if they can. Public health and education are woefully lacking in almost every respect.

Caesar ignores Doug’s lies regarding Obama, then true to form, patronisingly lectures with the impact of a sea sponge.

Doug is telling one of lies Donald Trump tells. Donald Trump is a pathological liar.

Caesar
Communism and Democratic Socialism are nothing alike. SIX of USA’s NATO allies in Europe are Democratic socialist states Norway, Denmark, Iceland, Sweden, Finland and UK all democratic socialist. Tony Blair is member of UK’s Labor Party.

Guys, I think you’re being ever so slightly unfair to Doug; I believe he was engaging in that old “irony” business. Which is daring of him, as not many people appreciate it any more.
I mean, I got it - but then I’m a wet sponge, and therefore not representative.
We have democratic socialist parties in Europe, but they’re not permanently in power - they can be voted in or out of government.
For instance, in Britain there have been Labour governments, but the Conservatives have most often held power. In fact, Margaret Thatcher is credited with forcing Labour to drop its core Socialist doctrines, in order to be electable again (eg “Clause Four”).
British people would be very amused at anyone calling Tony a Socialist (so would he!).

All Conservatives/Republicans lie All the time
Most Democrats do lie most of the time
but Bernie Sanders has not rejoined Democratic Party.
But ALL Conservatives lie all the time

Ah, but what if a conservative told you - “Never trust a conservative, for they always lie” - could you believe that one thing?
I think that if any politician is moving their lips, we have a problem.
Gore Vidal used to say that America was a one-party system, with two right wings.

Why SO MANY people investing so much effort to prove near bankrupt 19th century journalist Germ emigrant to England Karl Marx writings are wrong?
December 17th, 2018
Honestly, there’s a fear that people in the West are being seduced by the ideas of Marx again. It’s not just people on the right, political moderates look at the genuinely awful history and worry that we could sleepwalk into another mess. Every iteration of Marxism has a 100% failure record. And worse than failure.
We have a moral and pragmatic duty to help the poor and disadvantaged, but in a way that works. Without all the extremism. We should leave all those “isms” in the dustbin of history.

Workers have no rights & No power in capitalism. Owners can fire anybody they want, ANY time they win
US female worker in USA are just now stopping male bosses from using female employees from being used as sex toys at work. My mom got raped at work at an office job 20 years ago.

That’s absolutely horrible, I’m really sorry to hear that. That guy should rot in hell.
What the EU does have is fairly extensive Employment Rights legislation which protects workers from unfair or disproportionate treatment. However, some cases are better dealt with through criminal law.
Peace.

Blazer0,
Norway and Germany are not democratic socialist countries. They have market economies, and as such are capitalist, not socialist. You are thinking of social democracies, as Bernie Sanders did when he mislabeled social democracies as democratic socialism.
Socialism killed 100 million people in the 20th century. Look at all the famous socialist leaders: Stalin, Mao, Kim Jong Il, Che Guevera, etc. These men are all mass murderers who killed their own people and make Hitler look tame in comparison. A scary thought.

Blazer0 Google “economic freedom index” every one of the Northern Europe nations have more economic freedom (more capitalist) than the United States. Your argument is incorrect.
January 2nd, 2019
Nothern european nations are social democrat amd if you spent two minutes looking into UNs economic prosperity index, you’d see they are more business frendly and have a more open economy than the US does.
Calling them socialist is as inaccurate as calling the DDR a democracy. If anything, the incredible rebuilding after ww2 was driven by nationalistic social welfare state where the good of the general inhabitant was the main purpose - not socialism. This is how entire industries could be built and thousands emplyed; developing the businesses was a national endeavor and the operation both economically and socially profitable. (I.e. not socialist plan economy)
Be aware tha calling a scnadinavian a socialist would be considered quite an insult - actual communists are few and despised.
