Definitely got the social democracy vibes going though.
Huh? You are claiming that communist leaders DON'T set the wages, set the prices, OR distribute the wealth?
Socialist leaders would, absolutely. Bro, communism is moneyless.

But to your point, If governments don't set prices, corporations will.

Wait until he finds out that the United Soviet Socialist Republic was an authoritarian socialist state and not actually communist at all.

I mean, they were also pretty shitty at being socialists as well. Nor were they really a republic. So, yeah. Words are fun.

One of the most egregious things our government did in the 50s and 60s was their complete and utter misinformation about what communism is. That's why we have a shit load of Americans that can't tell the difference between communism and socialism.

Yes, I have no idea what any of these words mean. I just randomly smash the keyboard and hope for the best.

Think she's too radical? I think Trump is the radical one.

Her econ speech is not easy to defend, but I'll try.

No need to waste the bandwidth. It is basically Bidenomics 2.0.
