Socialism
Socialism is a range of economic and social systems characterized by social ownership of the means of production as well as the political theories and movements associated with them. The Top 10 socialist countries in the world in 2012: China, Denmark, Finland, Netherlands, Canada, Sweden, Norway, Ireland, New Zealand, Belgium. Other countries who ascribe to this political ideology are Cuba, Venezuela, Greece and many others. Greece Illustrates 150 Years of Socialist Failure in Europe. There are many varieties of socialism and there is no single definition encapsulating all of them, though social ownership is the common element shared by its various forms. Social ownership may refer to forms of public, collective or cooperative ownership, or to citizen ownership of equity. The Socialist Party of America was founded in 1901. • “Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery” — Sir Winston Churchill. • Garry Kasporov, former World Chess Champion, put it this way on Super Tuesday, 3/1/16: ” I’m enjoying the irony of American (Bernie) Sanders supporters lecturing me, a former Soviet citizen, on the glories of socialism. Socialism sounds great in speech soundbites and on Facebook, but please keep it there. in practice it corrodes not only the economy but the human spirit itself.” • As a great economist Milton Friedman once said, “If you put the government in charge of the Shara Dessert, in five years there’d be a shortage of sand.“ Centralized government control, which is what socialism is, inevitably, ultimately, stamps out individual creativity and talent and industriousness. Collectivism is soul-killing.

Macron copies US Democrats

7/8/24
from The Gray Area:
7/8/24:

Breitbart reported the French election results confirmed the “alliance of dishonour” between President Emmanuel Macron and the far left effectively blocked the populist National Rally from gaining a majority despite the Le Pen party claiming the most votes. The New York Times reported a coalition of left-wing parties that is now the dominant force. The results as follows:

The Wall Street Journal reported Deeply Divided France Risks Unprecedented Deadlock After Election Shock. Polarization has for years left the country’s politics stuck in an unpopular middle ground, and the latest elections won’t change that. Macron Loses as the Left Rises in France. He defeated Marine Le Pen’s party, but at the cost of empowering some unsavory bedfellows.

This "alliance of dishonour" sets up a continuing stalemate in France. One the globalists around the world have celebrated with glee; Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva announcing on 'X' that French politicians had united against “extremism” and Columbia Journalism Review saying, ...France’s ‘political miracle’.

Using the 'extremism' political narrative in the US, this all seems to parallel the left-wing Democrat Party in the US, confirming the unified, worldwide, globalist forces. Democrats have made alliance with far-left radicals, green party radicals & socialists to form a voting bloc that puts them at odds with the rest of the country.

In the US, the Democrats have joined this globalist cabal on purpose. In France, it was a desperate strategy to hold off the largest vote getter, Marine Le Pen's National Rally Party. It would appear from the results if she had done as Macron and consolidated with the 4th place right wing group, they could have declared victory with the most votes and the most seats.

But, even then, the splintered voting blocs would still not provide a unified government.

France has a problem. The multiple party ballot offers too many choices for them to ever get a unified government. Yet, the socialists hold on to power in another important country.

There was stunned silence at the far-right National Rally (RN) party headquarters as the results of France’s legislative elections came in.

In stark opposition, ecstatic jubilation rocked Place de La République where leftwing New Popular Front (NFP) supporters had gathered.

Sadly, riots have erupted in France tonight after the shocking election results.
