Because of mandated coverage and hidden taxes, many small businesses kicked there employees to Obamacare. Which ended up with limited government selected options. Leading to million of Americans losing their doctors. Ending up with a feature of communism, the state telling you which doctor you had to go to.

Now did something along those lines happen, yes, but it is far more complicated than to say that democrats just went from conservative to liberal and vice versa for the GOP.

[@Candisa]

@@mmking9517 I think you have a very different from the truth image of Europe. Every country is very different. Here in Belgium, the time we intentionally imported labour from outside EU is long gone. Within the Dublin Regulation all EU countries that accept refugees must follow, three quarters of the people coming to EU will never have a EU citizenship and are sent back because they aren't war or political refugees. The other quarter can only stay indefinitely and get full citizenship if the situation in their home country still is unsafe for them after 10 years. We have programs for people who want to switch careers into building trades, transportation... and we've changed the terms "lower education" and "higher education" to "practical education" and "academical education". Unfortunately it'll take some time before a majority of parents will follow that mindset instead of "my kid is smart enough to become a doctor or lawyer so they must try Latin-Science or Latin-Modern Languages first and only 'lower to' tradeschool if it really doesn't work out," but times are slowly but definitely changing because more and more people realize it's a lot better to learn a trade than to prepare for Uni and then drop out and have nothing. You can't save up for retirement if you can't work or can only generate a very limited income on your own because of disability, or if you had to spend all your savings plus crowd funding to get medical care... The life expectancy of someone born in the majority of EU countries is over 80 years. Unless you die in an accident at 60 after leading a very healthy life, most people will get more out of social security than they ever put into it, not because of migrant labour (again, that time is long gone, migration costs more money than it generates, that's why EU and many countries within have their own programs to rebuild foreign post-warzones, so refugees can go back), but because of progressive taxes on the higher incomes and luxury taxes on expensive goods and property. I definitely don't think the EU is a god gift to earth (well, first of all I don't believe in god, but that's a different story), I'm actually quite interested in how Japan does things, both economically as culturally, but as you say, Japan is an island, so you can't just apply their models onto a giant union of states/countries bordering other countries and continents...

Mao Tse Tung was the biggest mass murderer in human history. And lets not forget Eastern Europe, North Korea, Albania, and the countless other countries communism infected. Communism has a consistent record of dismal failure. So yes, seems like a very logical thing to fear, hate and detest! We should have gone much further in eradicating communism in the Western World. We're now faced with the withered disgusting corpse of communism rising from the dead, and seeking total power once again. Fight it any and every way you can, shame them, denounce them, and expose them. Spread the truth, because communists hate truth. Treat them like your worst enemy, because they are.

@@labinot1363 I looked it up, i was thinking of the wrong episode. Sheldon noticed the bread in his sandwich tasted vaguely different, and discovered a corporate merger of the company that produced the bread he liked, and were using cheaper ingredients and production means. He petitioned outside the supermarket and the news picked up the story but twisted his words into making him look like a communist, which he didn’t deny after taking a moment to think about the rationalization

@@giantrobby5050 thank you! Now that you said it, I kinda remember the beginning of the episode. But I don't remember any of the rest so I must have not continued watching it :D

[@catohung1020]

Sheldon finds out the bread is usually buys is different because of an acquisition, goes on the news and suggests a new system that gets twisted to sound like he is suggesting a communist system for texas

[@ray_ray_7112]

@@giantrobby5050 That's exactly what happened! The media twisted the story so they could capitalize on making the news story popular. I don't see what Sheldon did was wrong or a communist action. The man at the bread company either lied to him or was unaware that the new corporation did something to the bread to change its taste. I've noticed this in various foods over the years.

1:16 this shows idea of a cafeteria so hilariously undersized when you think about it. This cafeteria would be able to seat maybe one class at a time lol.

Fun fact: Many US communists or socialists are very patriotic towards the USA. They love their country and their people and because they do, they want socialism.

3:09 Sheldon is a staunch atheist. It’s no wonder why he called for communism. The founder of communism, Karl Marx, called it “the opium of the masses.”

[@kindleow]

He called capitalism the opium of the masses, not communism.

[@stephenking5852]

@@kindleow I wasn’t talking about an economy being a so-called “opium.” I meant religion. That’s why I mentioned Sheldon’s atheism and put the timestamp.

Pinko is a slang term for Communist.

90% of these people thought that it went like this. "Communism bad" But what is communism ? They don't know. The idea of enforcing companies to maintain the quality of their product is in general very much valid and correct.
