The so-called Democratic-Socialism in the Scandanavian countries is doing very will. Will it work on a country as varied and large as ours? Good question.
My issue is that we aren’t even trying—in fact, are going the other way.

Okay, fair point - IMO, we are heading in the wrong direction. The recent tax cuts are a Trojan Horse. Most don’t / won’t see it.
That the HMOs are content to have one of the worst records in birthing deaths in developed countries is but one example of the perniciousness of greed. IMO, You’re not wrong, you’re just not completely correct... just the way I see it.

Calling them tax cuts is itself dishonest.
They are rate cuts, but generated more money.

The elasticity anticipated by "rate cuts" is yet unproven. BTW, you found a euphemism for calling someone else a "liar"? The increased revenues from the "rate cuts" is more likely attributable to higher employment and the associated increased taxable earnings. The real test will come in the first quarter 2019 when 1040s are generated.

I didn’t call that a lie because it’s common NEWSPEAK ... and higher tax rates generally generate less revenue.

With Trump it's easy. If you don't like his policy, wait a few minutes. It's likely to change.

I vote my conscience... period. “Donnie” was not expected to win and I find Hiliary to be an anathema to sound government equal to but different from “Donnie”
