the military isnt socialized

2018-10-10 18:18:07 UTC  

very partially

2018-10-10 18:18:07 UTC  

it is

2018-10-10 18:18:10 UTC  

entirely

2018-10-10 18:18:11 UTC  

but not very

2018-10-10 18:18:17 UTC  

it's socialist by definition

2018-10-10 18:18:25 UTC  

not really

2018-10-10 18:18:28 UTC  

at all

2018-10-10 18:18:33 UTC  

whats your definition of socialized?

2018-10-10 18:18:34 UTC  

what does socialism mean to you guys?

2018-10-10 18:18:36 UTC  

haha oh

2018-10-10 18:18:51 UTC  

Socialism: when the people (government) run a particular industry or means of production

2018-10-10 18:18:52 UTC  

you know ours, how is the military soxialized

2018-10-10 18:19:00 UTC  

no I actually don't know yours

2018-10-10 18:19:08 UTC  

same as what you just gave

2018-10-10 18:19:14 UTC  

ok so who runs the military

2018-10-10 18:19:17 UTC  

is it private companies?

2018-10-10 18:19:24 UTC  

it's the government

2018-10-10 18:19:25 UTC  

who pays for the military?

2018-10-10 18:19:29 UTC  

is it private companies?

2018-10-10 18:19:37 UTC  

both taxes and private industry

2018-10-10 18:19:41 UTC  

but let me stop you there

2018-10-10 18:19:46 UTC  

ok, so it's socialist

2018-10-10 18:19:50 UTC  

technically by that definition the people are not running the country, deep-state is

2018-10-10 18:19:55 UTC  

because it is run by the state

2018-10-10 18:20:08 UTC  

the military isnt and industry, nor is it a means of production, by that definition not socialist.

2018-10-10 18:20:13 UTC  

just because things are run by the state doesnt mean they are socialist lol

2018-10-10 18:20:13 UTC  

yea that gets into representation, socialism refers to the state as the people, which is a tricky definition because it's often not true

2018-10-10 18:20:24 UTC  

@FriarPop that is the literal definition of socialism

2018-10-10 18:20:24 UTC  

and now there are Light Warriors within the military fighting the Dark side

2018-10-10 18:20:30 UTC  

alongside it has socialist pieces to make it cheaper in places but it isnt socialist

2018-10-10 18:20:40 UTC  

and the LightWarriors are winning

2018-10-10 18:21:29 UTC  

by ownership it is entirely socialist

2018-10-10 18:21:29 UTC  

The military has socialism influenced pieces, but isnt socialist. Also, that paper you cited, focused mostly on doctors

2018-10-10 18:21:59 UTC  

Sounds like star wars @Skyfire

2018-10-10 18:22:02 UTC  

not effectiveness of the doctors themselves just how often well trained doctors do well in general

2018-10-10 18:22:17 UTC  

ok, I will yet again find another study until one suits your fancy

2018-10-10 18:22:19 UTC  

wahx you have yet to prove a point

2018-10-10 18:22:26 UTC  

sure?

2018-10-10 18:22:31 UTC  

wahx dont find another article

2018-10-10 18:22:31 UTC  

if you guys are unconvinced then that's true
