Nobody is opposed to finding common ground or in compromising with anybody.
Or at least sane people aren’t. “Can’t we all just get along?”
But there is a philosophical difference between what capitalists believe and what socialists believe.
A socialist America will look different from our current capitalist America.
For one thing there would be fewer uber-rich people and therefore fewer poor people.
For another, nobody would need to worry about whether they had enough money to bring their children or themselves to see a doctor.
Also every worker would be making a living wage.
Egalitarianism and inclusion would be the governing policy.
Goddamn socialists.
Willie Sutton said that he robbed banks because that’s where the money was.
In the United States most of the money resides in the bank accounts and portfolios of the rich.
Taxing the rich to raise money to pay for social programs like Medicare For All and a Green New Deal is constitutional.
Just like it’s constitutional to tax and spend $1 trillion a year on a bloated military.
