I don't know about the details of Soviet administrative finances, but I would hazard to guess that taxes aren't necessary for state revenue when most industries are state run, so an evaluation of whether socialism is good insofar as taxes can't be looked at in isolation of "were taxes high or low" if the alternative methods for funding the state apparatus are more detrimental than higher taxes. That's not to say I'm arguing against lower taxes in socialist countries or anything, just something to consider

@Ben Garrison First one to consider this idea. Early-stage Socialism pretty much requires this.

It allows taxes to be lower.

You know most politics that go around here arent even anything to do with the US. Its usually something to do with um Karl Marx or Hitler

people thinking it will make the US better if it became communist

Lol

Trust me mate

im just saying what people think

Nobody believes that.

It's just Liberals begrudgingly admitting Marx was right but frantically saying that *HIS CONCLUSIONS DONT WORK STOP!*

hang on gimme a sec

brb

It's nothing new for Liberals to admit Marx was right but propose a nicer Capitalism and screech that Marx's solutions to the problems of Capitalism were wrong.

It's typical anti-communist propaganda.

They've been doing this crap for decades.

we need single payer

everyone i know including myself

🤔

maybe because republicans are wrong

🤔

Thats just what the msm wants you to think

Republicans are RIGHT, everything from tax plans to foreign policy

Foreign policy is arguably the weakest area for the Republicans. Granted there are different factions with different policy outlooks but the majority of the Party is too comfortable with the hawkish neocon position of interventionism

when someone calls republicans bad in a channel called republican glory

@Ben Garrison idk about past repubs, but Trumps got it in the bag with China and NK

Things seem to be heading in the right direction but nothing is set in stone yet regarding NK. When it comes to China he's usually alright. The important thing to remember though is that Trump isn't the Republican Party. All throughout the primary and even during the campaign against Hillary the Party establishment has been against him every step of the way.

I think that women should have the right to abort their children
