Socialist? Sure. I guess if spending government money on your average citizen instead of shoving it into the pockets of failing corporations is socialism.

But lying through your teeth to get your person in office? The end justifies the means? Just shows your moral and ethical bankruptcy.-

Dionys, If you read his policies, he's clearly in the socialist court. Since he's played the Chicago political stage, perhaps he's closer to a communist. What yours is the state's which I control and what's mine since I'm a party boss is mine. He's big into supporting reductions in my take home pay to cover the costs of those who won't or don't work.

lmao. BB, if you read his policies you would clearly see he is a true-blue American man-of-the-people who is going to stop this country's slide into the gutter, or at least try.

You would prefer McCain's fascist entitlement programs for the rich and cronies over somebody who will actually help the 90% of america that earns less than $112K/year?
What is wrong with using our money to benefit us for once? You that brainwashed?-

Unlike you, he is willing to pay the extra taxes because he understands that although life is "good" for him, it's NOT GOOD for most Americans and they need help!

I read what is on his web site to tell people what he wants to accomplish. His proposals will do big time spending. Deficit now will look small. To offset this he will have to raise taxes to the level that will make Clinton's biggest ever tax hike seem small.

In other words - spend, spend, spend, spend, tax, tax, tax.
Tax companies big time. That way everybody gets to pay the hidden taxes while they are "punishing" those evil companies for having a profit. The problem is that companies really don't pay the taxes. Their customers pay their taxes.

I love how anytime the government wants to help the citizens at all, you NeoCons scream "Socialism, socialism!"

I guess police forces are socialistic too. And hospitals. I mean, if people practiced "personal responsibility" they would not commit crimes and would be able to heal themselves.
Face it.-

The problem is where to draw the line. President Johnson declared war on poverty in order to build the "Great Society". We have spent trillions doing that. One welfare program after the other so now it is the biggest part of spending. Did we defeat poverty in the US or lower the % of population considered in poverty? NO

With that backdrop why add more and more entitlements to fix a problem where so much money is being spent already. Liberals look at a problem and their ONLY solution is to throw money at it. Good intentions in the war on poverty have cause a major problem in various areas. One area is what ADC has done to the poor blacks. In the early 60's they were close nit families. Now the family structure has been torn apart. The rules of ADC say that to get benefits there can be no man living there. So girls that got pregnant could get a place to live, food,etc. Others saw this and figured out to get out from under mom and dads control all they had to do was get pregnant. Then the more kids the more they got as aid. This became a way of life for generations now. Girls having babies and boys getting "notches" for fathering children without any responsibility. This is ghetto life these days. I had my face rubbed in it while I was a foster parent in the Detroit metro area.
What Liberals never think about is how people change their behavior in order to get the handouts. Unintended consequences. This causes disruption in the fabric of our society.
