Just because you have Marxism doesn't mean you have totalitarianism.

do tell?

Those two concepts are not mutually exclusive although they've been conflated

I don't think you know what Marxism means.

I know what Marxism means. I'm curious to know what you think it means.

Read a book.

Did you write a book?

because I want to know what you think. Not what someone else thinks.

Yes, but not on that subject.

I read uh

YOu would only be able to get the stimulus if you got the vaccine, fucking over poor people.

Just because parts of your society are socialized doesn't mean that you have property rights or mineral rights...

@leftingfighter33. It is not a Stimulus Payment. It is a Quid Pro Quo.... IMO

All of these things are on what I call the spectrum

What's the corporate tax rate there, again?

@Recalibar to be avoided

Oh, nvm, switzerland, not sweeden

What's it all when the taxpayer
Bail out corporations that should fail? Other than stupid.

Socialists love making money off capitalism

@leftingfighter33 again it is not meant to replace the stimulus, it’s meant to encourage people to get the vaccine. It’s just a proposal to encourage people to get vaccines. You painted as if the intent was that they trying to force people to get vaccines or else no stimulus

@james j yes. Quid Pro Quo

> Socialists love making money off capitalism
@leftingfighter33 bail outs are the opposite of that

it's a little more than 'encouraging' when you scare the hell out of people, destroy their livelihoods and then tell them you'll help them out if they take a vaccine.

@james j. No penalty for not getting a Vaccination?

You are depriving people of extra cash they need to not starve unless they get the vaccine.

Yes @William Dinan but it’s not some evil plan to screw over the poor. He obviously doesn’t understand the anti vaxx culture and was looking at it from the angle of people generally not getting flu vaccines every year @leftingfighter33 @William Dinan @Soburin no one is deprived of cash. Again its independent of any stimulus proposal

You got the vaccine? here is an extra 1500 to feed your children. You didn't? Sorry you don't qualify for the extra money.

you don’t get it @leftingfighter33

Fair enough. No conditional stimulus. Get out there and earn. This isn't a welfare nation. Sorry for your luck.

@Zuluzeit masters of universe showing up to the banking system with hat in hand? The big boy bankers all have seats on the board of the Federal reserve in the us .
