The Republican presidential candidate linked Sen. Bernie Sanders, a self-proclaimed democratic socialist in the mold of Northern European countries, to the murderous communist regimes of Stalin, Mao and Pol Pot ...


"It amazes me and it actually kind of scares me,” Paul said. “I’ve been spending more time going after Bernie and socialism because I don’t want America to succumb to the notion that there’s anything good about socialism. I think it’s not an accident of history that most of the times when socialism has been tried that attendant with that has been mass genocide of people or any of those who object to it. Stalin killed tens of millions of people. Mao killed tens of millions of people. Pol Pot killed tens of millions of people. When you have a command economy, when everything is dictated from one authority, that’s socialism, but it doesn’t come easily to those who resist it.”​

Whatever one might think of Sanders’ political ideology, there is a vast gulf between the kind of socialist policies policies he is discussing and the total economic and social control imposed by communist dictatorships.​

Is this supposed to deter liberals or something?

The wander around with Che Guevara T-shirts on. How much blood is on his hands?

The modern liberal is the foundation for the Ministries of 1984. Their Ministry of Economics insists their funny money will ease recessions for us, but blows bubbles that create them and prolong them. Their Ministry of Tolerance is about intolerance. Their Ministry of Wealth Redistribution is about redistributing it from the poor to the rich. Their Ministry of Freedom is about enslavement.

And they defend it all with the sweet naivety that insists the notion of centralized power is not evil, if you have the right person in charge. And then support Che Guevara.

Ron Paul was never more correct. And in his case, that's saying a mouthful.
 
Sanders is the useful idiot. Hillary and Wassermann-Schulz would commit the genocide.

Hillary is more dangerous than Sanders, and Rubio is more dangerous than Hillary. Sanders is a Nordic socialist. but with a GOP house he's a wolf with no teeth.
 
Denmark seems to be going quite ok

Have you ever seen Denmark's corporate tax rate? It's way lower than ours (not a bad thing). Their tax code goes easy on the wealthy and rapes the middle class, basically the exact opposite of what kooky Bernie Sanders claims he wants to do.

Kind of like what we have here (Netherlands, close to Denmark, although I've never really been there). There's very little difference between making lets say 25k and 35k a year. Subsidies etc. level that out. Then if your income is high enough or it comes from a business you can structure your finances in such a way to minimize tax exposure. Still not paradise but a lot better.
 
You know, I would have loved to gave seen a Sanders-Paul debate. And I think they could have pulled it off too, get around these conventional debates and good exposure for Rand and his campaign's message.

Then Rand goes and compares Bernie Sanders to Pol Pot.

Forget it now. Good going.
 
Scandinavia ranks towards the too of the world on ease of doing business, with Denmark also towards the top of economic freedom in both the heritage and frasier institutes. Sanders is a Venezuelan style socialist.

Scandinavia is moving towards capitalism.
