The View, (from the 9th grade lunch table)
By Richard McDonough
Joy Behar: “Isn’t it socialism when the government helps you?”
Sunny Hostin: “Yeah, and the fire department’s gotta come, and the police. I mean, socialism!”
--The View, Sept. 29, 2022
So discussed the hosts on the women's talk show, The View.
Actually no, Joy and Sunny, that’s not what socialism is.
Behar and Hostin stated these clueless AOC-level views during a recent discussion in which various members of The View exposed what the “inclusive” party, the compassionate “liberals,” really are by making fun of the people who are dying and losing their livelihoods after Hurricane Ian in Florida. Very classy!
If one wants a real definition of socialism, as opposed to what one hears at the ninth grade lunch table or on The View, it would be something like this:
Socialism is a social organization in which the government as opposed to private individuals, “own the means of production”. In a socialist country the government owns the car companies, the health care industry, the news media, the farms, the energy companies, etc. By contrast, in capitalist countries, these are owned by a private individual or consortium of private individuals.
