Why the majority of politicians are jokes

"instead of being equally distributed among the workers"

Like I said, socialists are all idiots...

I like how you offered no legitimate reason why the workers aren't entitled to their share of the profits, but merely called me an idiot. Nice.

moistening his cigar in that woman, ms lewinsky, was definitely a stupid move

He nearly ruined cigars for me but committing perjury wasn't too bright either...

I'm glad you liked that but it should be obvious, except to idiot socialists, that the "entitlement" is what's wrong with it. What workers are "entitled" to is to be paid what they agreed to work for. Some companies "offer" profit sharing but they aren't entitled to it.

how about the idiot socialists running the banks who were 'entitled' to be bailed out and even nationalized by the government thanks to their fiscal negligence? this year's christmas bonuses will be courtesy of the taxpayer

Many capitalists were against the bailout but doesn't make socialism any better nor more acceptable. Additionally, that's not socialism, it was wrong but not exactly socialism either.

As I remember, that idiot socialist Roosevelt was a lot better for Depression-era America than that pillar of laissez-faire, Herbert Hoover.

income assistance programs are not socialism: they don't even interfere with the free markets

the federal government buying up some of the largest financial institutions in the country is socialism by definition

Because they don't own the business, that is why they are not "entitled" to anything. What risk do they take? They still expect their paycheck, even of the company loses money.
I never had an employee give me any money when my business lost money that month. They still wanted to get paid, how greedy can you get.

Actually that idiot socialist Roosevelt extended the Depression a good 5 years longer than it would have been. WW2 got us out of it finally.

Socialists think they're owed far much more than they are really worth...

Redistribution of wealth from the "rich" to the "poor" is socialism by any rational definition. The government preventing economic collapse by investing in businesses is not the same thing.

Exactly, FDR's New (raw) Deal was bad for America and we're still paying the price.

You have to be one of the most offensive, horrible people I've ever had the displeasure to meet. I agree with rebgirl 100%, I hope to god you get banned so we dont have to deal with you calling everyone an idiot like you're some sort of genius or some bullshit. Go to a shrink and get your superiority complex checked out.

Also, LOL at you disabling your reputation, I'm not even slightly surprised. I'd disable it too if everyone thought I was a douche bag.
