You Know Who Else Was a Socialist? Andrew Carnegie, That’s Who!

by John Cole

Another gem from Fox:
http://www.rawstory.com/rawreplay/2011/08/fox-host-asks-if-warren-buffett-is-completely-a-socialist/


In Eric Bolling’s mind, Warren Buffett may be a socialist now.



That skepticism was shared by the Fox Business News host after the renowned billionaire again stated in a New York Times op-ed on Monday that the rich needed to pay more in taxes. In a heated debate with Columbia professor Marc Lamont Hill, Boiling was steadfast in slamming Buffet’s opinion and President Obama’s “socialist handbook.”

“What is this, is he completely a socialist and he’s playing into Mr. Obama’s hands of “Tax anyone who makes money’ and give it to people who don’t work,” Bolling asked.

Hill replied: “So basically anyone who disagrees with you is a socialist? Now Warren Buffett, one of the greatest profit makers in human history, is a socialist? I mean, come on. He’s simply saying people need to pay their fair share.”




Actually, Professor Hill, you’ve nailed it. Anyone who disagrees with a wingnut is a socialist. And probably a communist. Definitely a liberal fascist. With gay tendencies.

1. to these idiots, Adam Smith was a socialist.

Heck, to these twits, Reagan was a socialist for raising taxes.

3. Well, Adam Smith DID support progressive taxation, welfare, and regulation.

8. Adam Smith is the father of conservative economics.

Which just goes to show you how far out of the mainstream today's current crop of conservatives falls. Heck, I don't even call them conservatives: they are reactionaries.

9. False, he wasn't a conservative at all, he was quite radical.

The Adam Smith worshiped by the Right was not the historical reality.

Modern mainstream economics, called "Neo-Classical" economics, is actually a betrayal of Smith, the elites threw the real Smith under the bus because there is a direct line from Smith, through David Ricardo, to Marx.

2. Well, definitely an atheist, Islamic, Marxist, jihadist.

4. Eisenhower was a socialist as well - he INCREASED the number of folks eligible

for social security. That commie bastard!

5. I'll take my cue from Shane Johnson...

"If folks like Glenn Beck, Sarah Palin and Rush Limbaugh make their careers off of using the word socialism as a slur, how bad could it be?" asks 35-year-old Shane Johnson of Corryville, a union electrician who helped revive Cincinnati's International Socialist Organization chapter this year, which has about a dozen members.

6. You forgot Muslin

7. It sucks so much that what used to be considered sane,

slightly left of center (even centrist, and even right of center!) positions are constantly branded as socialist -- a mere word to scare people who don't truly know what it means.

Perhaps a liberal tea party is in order to show people what a real left looks like.
