She's using the Republican definition of socialism. So do Republicans not know what socialism is or are they just being dishonest?

They know better though. At this point, most of them are probably thinking "oh gee thanks for the apology money..."

This bailout is basically hush money being handed to an assault victim by their assailant.

People on the right have done a really good job of making people think government spending equals socialism. And people on the left have fallen for it sadly

Interesting how this will turn out. Will they just call her a hypocrite and say she doesn't care about rural Americans?

It's not socialism.

People wonder why I prefer the old to be in power and this is an example why political office belongs to the old and wise, not the young and radical.

Probably different depending on the person. I'd guess most don't know what socialism is, though.

But considering she calls herself a socialist, that's a pretty important question to ask of her.

Here is her actual quote:
"When the public democratically decides to invest in ourselves, in working people, they call it socialism. When a billionaire-captured government forces the public to pay for their misdeeds at the expense of working people, they just call it the cost of capitalism,"


Since half this topic doesnt seem to know what she actually said and is acting like she thinks this is socialism.


Good looking out

She knows what socialism is. The real issue she's getting at is this.

She's saying that if she tried to spend $28 billion on "bailout money" to various impoverished populations (aka welfare) it would be called socialism from the right wing.

There's a reason the term corporate welfare is a thing.
