    They know if they do the second line will be complete bullshit.

    It's still bullshit, but there's a smoke screen this way.

    Easy.

    Whichever policies empower the private sector workforce.

    Why?

    Because this is where public sector funds come from.

    All of society depends upon a smart, strong private sector.

    Left wing policies shit on private sector workers and give all their tax contributions away trying to increase their own voting base.

    It's insulting.

    Left wing voters will vote for personality first and foremost.

    Left wing voters under authoritarianism have their votes forced upon them, North Korean style.
    Freedom, freedom, fuckin' freedom. Which matters more? The freedom to live an authentic life, or the freedom to crush degenerates under the heel of a jackboot? As a centrist, I am undecided.

    At least we're talking about it, though.

    Certain things should never be privatized and that includes healthcare, justice, and education - because they correspond directly to the rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness respectively. So no, the only thing insulting here is the right wing's continued pretense they give a shit about liberty or 'American values'.

    I'm not American.

    And i live in a society where healthcare, justice and education is tax payer funded (socialised).

    And i still think left wing policies shit all over the private sector worker.

    More tax revenue for the public sector comes from a stronger private sector.

    There is no other place tax revenue is generated.

    That is it.

    And i think it's about time the left wing in general start to appreciate that fact a little bit more and stop taking it for granted.

    Oh, okay, so you're just a person who has benefited off the public tit and are fine with it, but are not fine with other people doing so. The word for that is hypocrisy, hun.

    People couldn't own private business if society didn't provide the framework for them to safely do so. This is why libertarian Somalia is not an economic powerhouse. Try again.

    I'm not surprised you and other conservatives haven't seen them, because they're at the Pride Parade.

    Marxism is sexy, never let anyone convince you otherwise.

    Not in the slightest. I actually find people that push the "we owe everything to private interests" line mildly disgusting since it's indicative of a highly selfish worldview.

    My belly laughs are reserved for people like Endus or Breccia.

    Oh, I'm laughing with Endus and Breccia.

    I'm laughing at the people who believe private property is the source of all wealth and goodness in humanity because it's an absolute fuckin joke, lol.

    I think you're being a little over dramatic to be fair.

    I accuse the left in general of taking private sector workers tax contributions for granted.

    I wouldn't say the private sector is the sole source of all positives in humanity though.

    What's so funny though that you are laughing with Endus?

    What do you Marxists' laugh about? I'm curious.

    People who think man is an island, i.e. capitalists.

    If we took private sector contributions for granted we wouldn't be asking them to pay their fair share. They aren't currently, despite the capitalism stans claiming they do.

    Private sector workers aren't paying their fair share of tax contributions?

    When many of them work two jobs just to be able to pay bills?

    That's why i think the way I do.

    You don't appreciate their efforts, and take their hard work for granted.

    Then you give it away to people that don't work.

    Hardly surprising Trump is going to win again with you Marxists' having attitudes like that.

    Most Trump supporters only vote Trump to watch you unappreciative lefties cry about it.

    When are you going to realise that?

    Private sector employers and business owners are not, no.

    If I took their hard work for granted I wouldn't be called a Stalinist for advocating a $22 minimum wage, hun.

    The ones who have to work two jobs to pay the bills are paying their fair share.

    it's the ones who sign those paychecks, knowing that they aren't enough to live on, then go home to their mansions, those people need to pay their fair share.

    They can pay it in wages, or they can pay it in taxes for the government to distribute as essential services. They are gonna have to pay up though, one way or another, or there will be no consumer class to buy the products that make them rich.
