Nice straw man. I am not saying they are marxists, however, like you they are in love with the idea of wealth redistribution and they demonize capitalists 24/7.
You are correct they are not marxist, however, they use the socialist language because they know it resonates with those that see themselves as victims.
Europeans have tried to moved farther to the left and eventually come back a bit to the center. Sweden tried more socialism in the 70s and then realized they would run out of money. The Swedes privatize social security which is considered extreme right wing in America. They also provide school vouchers for religious schools, another evil right wing ideas in America. Some of the trains are run by the private sector.
Ad hominem is not an argument. Note how I never call you names.

No one here is advocating that where it counts. Find me one Congressperson that is a Marxist.

That's the Big Lie of propaganda again... you do it constantly. If you look at the successful European countries, they have robust social programs. Even there, you'd need a microscope to find anyone with power arguing they should be Marxist.

I said a couple days ago you would lie again, and here you are. You pretend to be rational, but you like the paychecks for trolling a lot better, now don't you.
