Capitalism Kills Nearly 1 Million Americans Per Year

[Celerity]

220. Strawman? I'm one who's consistently posited since I joined DU that the Nordics are NOT socialist

I have never in my life advocated for socialism.

I have never said that capitalism automatically equals poverty.

I believe in capitalism, I just want it practiced in the US far more along the lines of the Nordic model, with far better regulation, a far more widespread and healthy labour union system, along with it (the capitalist private sector) buttressing a more expansive social welfare state. I want a removal (as much as it possible) of the profit motive from certain fundamental human rights where it exists (in the US), like healthcare.

I have also never advocated for a 3rd party, and have always voted straight Dem since the first time I voted in the US (well from overseas in that case), right after I turned 18 in 2014.

Your reply just now is written and constructed in such a way as though I am doing things or have advocated for things I never have.

So strawman indeed, but certainly not from me.
