Fox News poll shows majority support for socialism among registered Democrats

| August 13, 2021

A Fox News poll found that 59% of registered Democrats have a positive view of socialism. The same poll found that 67% of registered Republicans have a positive view of capitalism. Project Veritas, in one of their undercover videos, captured a statement by a “moderate” Democrat stating that they could not publicly admit the true socialist nature of some of their policies. This appears to not be an anomaly.

From Fox News:

The trend toward socialism among Democrats comes at a time when members of Congress such as self-described democratic socialists Rep. Alexandria-Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., and Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., have had a growing influence on Democratic politics. Sanders, as chair of the Senate Budget Committee, has been leading a charge to pass a $3.5 trillion budget reconciliation bill that he says is aimed at addressing wealth inequality.

That bill would provide for government-funded programs such as tuition-free pre-K and community college, as well as the expansion of Medicare, which Sanders ultimately would like to be changed to a universal socialized health care system.

This is on top of the bipartisan $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill that the Senate recently passed. Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., has said even that is a “gateway to socialism” and a “down payment on the Green New Deal.”

Keep this reality in mind when you hear about the bills that the Democrats are shoving through Congress. Fox News has the full article here.

Who the hell are the 8% of Republicans that favor socialism? Methinks there is something hinky with the data.

cobrakai99

Romney, Murkowski, Kinsiger, the Lincoln Man Boy Project, etc

And a good portion of the establishment hack writers at the National Review.

Also begs the question about the remaining 25% Republican “fence sitters”.

Really? You have haven’t formed an opinion yet on whether you prefer Socialism over Capitalism?

Mind boggling…..

You know that “patriot” Liar errr Lars would come in here to defend Socialism. Its such a great system that it flourished wherever implemented. You know he’ll lump the European/Scandinavian countries with their sky taxes, heavy regulations, and an effective ‘class’ system as Socialist Utopias. Except that those countries don’t refer to themselves as Socialist. They have many social services that cost TONS of money, but they are Market Capitalist Economies through and through. Of course, this country was founded on the opposite of Socialism with the goal of less government and more freedom. I’m sure the likes of Jefferson, Adams, Franklin, and Washington aren’t as smart as Lars…. Oh, and Orange Man Bad.

It relates directly to ignorance and a lack of common sense. That and there is a common arrogance among supporters of socialism, this delusion/assumption that they will all be among the uberlords ruling over the peons, thus will not be affected by the socialism. In reality, they will almost all be the peons slaving away to make their masters more rich and happy.

Tallywhagger

Not for sure, sure, but from what I have gleaned, Canada appears to have become a series or combination of socialist enclaves. Albeit, they seem to have a more refined “migration” management than the socialist element of Congress.

Commissar

Maybe they understand what socialism is?

As opposed to all the dimwits who think it is the same as communism.

They also know most industrial democracies are social democracies and they score higher than this US in every measure of quality of life…

Including social and political freedom.

SFC D

Maybe they understand what their chosen leaders tell them: FREE SHIT!!!!!

Still a fraud.

Commissar

Give me a break. Leaders of both parties, particularly republicans, have been running budget deficits for decades.

That is the very definition of free shit. Stealing the wealth and prosperity from future generations to increase the quality of life now.

It is one things to deficit spend to invest in the future…infrastructure, education, research, technology.

It is quite another to consumption spend while running deficits. Which is precisely what Trump did. He had the most wasteful budget in US history, consumption, pouring money to run up markets, and corporate giveaways with no investment in the future.

That was trillions in free shit for corporations, his donors, his lackeys, Wall Street, and the super wealthy.

He also made money laundering much easier.

SFC D

I give zero fucks what political party promises free shit. There is no free shit. Somebody is paying for it. If everybody gets free shit, there’s nobody left to pay for it. Now, let’s talk about money laundering and the Biden cartel…

HEY Major Moonbat, I see that you JUST HAD TO come and shit your pants over Donald Trump, but at least he got us independent of Foreign Petroleum while your hero Biden got us right back to dependency on them while accepting their bribes right and left, doing the bidding of whoever pays him off the best.

Socialism and communism are the same polished turds in a different wrappers. Both end up with the state controlling everything. Both end up with the state having precedence over the individual.

Anyone who thinks a government with complete control of the means of production can also be trusted to allow workers to self govern is either naive or believe themselves to be part of the ruling class.

Commissar

Government does not have control over the means of production in socialism.

Quite the opposite. Socialism has a free market.

And socialism and communism are not the same thing, nor versions of the same thing. People. who claim that absolutely reveal they don’t know what the hell they are talking about.

penguinman000

What exactly do you think social ownership means? Who, exactly, would comprise that ownership? Hint…it ain’t the average citizen.

If we could only look at real world examples (such as the unitary one party socialist republics in China, Cuba or Laos) we could find real, tangible examples of what socialist governments look like in the real world.

Sterling examples of freedom and economic mobility of their citizenry.

As far as pointing to countries such as Denmark and saying “their socialist”, the prime minister of Denmark in 2015, Lars Løkke Rasmusse, sure didn’t think that’s the case. He seems to be of the mind they have an expanded social safety net with a market economy. But, what does he know about government? He was only the PM.

Commissar

Every single social democracy has private ownership and free markets.

Stop trying to claim otherwise just to make it easier to shelter yourself in your ignorant worldview.

penguinman000

So to be clear, your position is the Prime Minister of Denmark was incorrect about the form of government for his own nation?

Mason

He also says China isn’t communist.

Anonymous

Are you lying to us or yourself?

USMC Steve

Yes, government does have all the control in socialism. Every socialist government has some say in major business running even in places like England, Sweden, etc. The so called free market you talk about is not a free market at all. It is controlled partially or completely by the government, and those places are the land of the value added tax and many other taxes. And you will find no communist country with anything other than a socialist business model.

Only Army Mom

In violation of my personal Tau, I am responding to your presumptuous notion that you are “educated” because you hold a view that most of us reject on moral, ethical principle.

Communism is the philosophical framework of a political system, based on Karl Marx. Socialism is the watered down political and economic system predicated on communist, collectivist, Marxist ideology. Societies and policies based on these are proven failures of inherently flawed ideas.

Exactly what do “we” not understand?

“Our” system is that of a Capitalist Republic, predicated on individualistic ideas.

“Your” idea is that we can legislate morality in economic policies, a morality defined and codified by Marxist ideas.

“We”, this country, rejected those ideas as they require an autocracy -someone has to decide what is “moral” and “fair”- not just for themselves but for everyone else, too.

“We” chose that “we” are to determine what is “moral” and “fair” for ourselves and require you to do the same, for yourself. Which part of the simple concept on which our Constitution is based -you are free to do as you chose unless or until the exercise of those freedoms interfere with other’s exercise of their freedoms- do you object to?

That is a direct question.

Commissar

Socialism is not predicated on Marxism or communism.

It predates Marx’s birth by more than a decade.

Marx also crtisized and rejected socialism as “utopian” because he thought it was necessary for there to be a transition period where a government controlled the means of production.

Social democracies lend their origin to pre.Marxist socialist thinkers like Henri de Saint-Simon and John Stuart Mill.

Only Army Mom

None of which answers the questions, all of which is arguable.

“Socialism” could be said to predate Marx by about 2,000 years…to the teachings of the Essenes and Jesus of Nazareth.

Again, it was a direct question

Commissar

We were not founded as a capitalist republic.

Capitalism was not even a term until 1850.

We were mercantilist and we functioned as a mercantilist society until the second half of the 19th century. And continued mostly mercantilist economic policies until WWI.

Our founders were mercantilist and our economic policies were mercantilist.

And James Madison, Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, and John Adams all advocated socialist ideas like broad collective ownership of industries by American workers.

Jefferson and Washington did not think the US economy could survive without it.

Jefferson and Madison believed inequities and disparities in property ownership would subvert liberty and lead to an oligarchy founded on corruption where the wealthy would dominate political decision making.

Only Army Mom

Won’t answer a direct question. Why is that? Instead double-down on an interpretation of some interpretations of history, all of which have been put forth by better minds and with different conclusions.

Now there are two questions, neither of which will be answered.

thebesig – I understand and agree with your assessment. My comment was aimed at what our squawking pigeon and those of that ilk define as “socialist ideals” – caring for the poor and less fortunate as our brothers, etc.

Not meant to be an actual reference of the teachings of the Bible, Jesus, or for that matter, the Essenes (what little we actually know). In other words, an inane response to an inane comment.

Yeah, I’ve read the Book, too. Cover to cover and more than once as well as all the apocrypha I’ve been able to find. I too have come to the firm conclusion that God intends us to be happy, intends us to make use of all that we’ve been given and to do so with kind reverence for Him and all he created, including beer. Seeing it is Friday night after a long week, I’m going to do as God wishes.

I hate these “polls”. What was the question, exactly? How did they get respondents? I don’t know which is more concerning, how few people understand how research and statistics actually work, or how many people read this sort of headline and story and believe it is valid or reliable.

There is ~always~ a narrative being supported with this kind of crap. That is the most salient piece of information these polls give, but too few are smart enough to even ask the question.

Commissar

If it is on Fox News it is aways intended as a propaganda narrative.

They have admitted in court time and time again that they are not “news” they are entertainment and that no reasonable person would take what they broadcast seriously. They make that claim explicitly in court filings.

And Richard Murdoch has been open about the fact that Fox was founded and always intended to be a “conservative” propaganda machine.

Commissar

Marx also rejected a democratic approach to socialism. He thought it required violent revolution and a directed approach; which is why original Marxism leads to dictatorships.

Social democracies are not dictatorships and rank higher than the US across all major freedom indexes.

Free shit from the government (socialism) always comes with a hook embedded. You essentially are owned by the hand that feeds you. I don’t want that kind of “freedom”.

Socialism is a form of government that a populace has to shoot its way out of.

5JC

Social democracies are in no way Socialism. I’m so tired of this idiotic lie.

They serve to devise new means to strengthen the capitalist system which conflicts with the socialist goal of replacing capitalism with a socialist system. Socialists believe that that capitalism can never be sufficiently humanised and that any attempt to suppress its economic contradictions will only cause them to emerge elsewhere. In contrast to social democracy’s mixed economy, democratic socialists advocate a post-capitalist economic system based on either a market economy combined with workers’ management, or on some form of participatory, centralized planning of the economy.

The US has been a defacto social democracy since at least the 1930s. That isn’t in serious dispute, it is merely to what degree.

USMC Steve

Wrong again dumbfuck. I won’t bother to prove it since you never respond to facts. Those countries also have on average less freedom, and less income than we do. Because their respective governments decide what rights they get to have, and how much money they want to use giving free shit to assholes that don’t deserve anything.

Jeff Bezos is worth $190,000,000,000.00 Did he “earn” that? He received more than $4,000,000,000.00 from US taxpayer “development” funds in direct cash subsidies to build his company. Not to mention the uncountable billions in taxpayers funds spent over decades that went into the research and technologies he leveraged for his entire business model. How about the $129,000,000 his company received last year in tax rebates despite paying no federal corporate taxes… or the $4000.00 earned income tax credit he qualified for and received because he had no net taxable income after deductions. We give hundreds of billions a year of taxpayer wealth to the wealthiest Americans and corporations…many majority foreign own corporations. We bailout the rich, bailout Wall Street, bail out corporations, and give them exclusive patents and monopolies on government (taxpayer) funded research and technologies. We also pay their underpaid workers financial assistance, food stamps, and other subsistence benefits because these extremely profitable companies pay their workers as little as possible and rake in billions for their executives and owners. McDonald’s and Walmart together made more than $100 billion in profits…and collected more than $10 billion in corporate subsidies… Yet they have tens of thousands of e players on taxpayer funded subsistence. But what else would you expect? We allow money to dominate political outcomes and thus the wealthy to dominate politics. Such that the wishes of the American public is irrelevant to more than 97% of legislative outcomes. Nearly every single one of the top 50 wealthiest Americans built their wealth by leveraging taxpayer funded technologies. Technologies that never would have been developed through profit driven private development because it took decades long research and development timelines…corporations operate on 2-5 year timelines. Many of these billionaires pay little to no taxes. Nearly every single one of the top 20 “American” corporations were built on taxpayer funded research and… Read more »

You aren’t the sole arbiter of truth dispensing enlightenment to the masses. You arguing there is a difference between socialism and communism gains no traction here because we live in the real world. Not the fantasy land of ivory tower academics who argue over theories practiced in a vacuum. At the end of the day both systems end up with the state having complete power. Turns out once human beings gain power (through voluntary means as socialism posits or violent means Marxism posits) they aren’t giving that power up. You rail about capitalism stealing from future generations all the while ignoring the very clear realities of what socialism has produced in the real world. Genocide, eugenics, and confiscation of private property. And China doesn’t practice capitalism domestically. They only engage in it as a matter of economic warfare internationally. The state either owns, runs or gives clear direction on what business do. Jack Ma anyone? And when faced with a very well known fact that the PM of Denmark clearly said they are not socialist you refuse to address it because it doesn’t fit with your world view. As far as Bezos goes, I have zero love for that asshat, but he’s far from the first powerful and rich person who made their money off the backs of others.
