Okay let me go lecture the people providing jobs and products, while also paying majority of income taxes because the guy who couldn’t even cut it part time at Ups asked me to.
workers dont create jobs? government doesnt create jobs? its not unique to capitalism.

the american tax system is regressive. wall st bail outs. subsidies. the rich control tax policy, not the poor

Sure it is, you're asking the guy to contribute to society as a measure of how much society should contribute to him.
"From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs"

That’s not socialism at all.

Unless you envision society being the government and proper contributions are a GED, a criminal record and mouthes to feed = free housing, schooling, clothing and job opportunities.

I'm addressing what you said, not your misconceptions about the nature of socialism.

Just in regards to your statement to rickyb, telling someone that they need to contribute to society is a longstanding socialist belief.
No it’s not.

Contributing a vote = free housing, college and healthcare paid for off the backs of others is a long standing socialist belief though.

Honestly if socialism does take hold, I’ll quit my job go to college for free, living in my free housing and bounce once I graduate.

Thanks for the handout suckers, off to contribute to a society that isn’t retarded.

The problem with socialism is eventually you’ll run out of other people’s money.

The only reason it takes effect is there are more losers and bleeding hearts than there are people that will accept the truth and responsibility for their actions and well being.

Do some reading. The fundamental tenet of socialism is that everyone contributes to society, which is what you told rickyb to do.
Your line about "free housing, college and healthcare paid for off the backs of others" is a strawman that no true socialist has ever espoused.

You’re delusional.
