Calvin you sound completely uneducated. China is in no way socialist. The only way one could confuse them as socialist is because they are an official "Communist" "People's Party" nation. Which you also apparently don't know. But like I said they are actually not.

Tucker is that a Forbes article that supports my quote or disagrees with it. Because Forbes has some writers lol
Let's dispel once and for all with this fiction that Barack Obama doesn't know what he's doing. He knows EXACTLY what he's doing. Barack Obama is undertaking a systematic effort to change this country, to make America more like the rest of the world.
That's why he passed Obamacare and the stimulus and Dodd-Frank and the deal with Iran. It is a systematic effort to change America. When I'm president of the United States, we are going to re-embrace all the things that made America the greatest nation in the world and we are going to leave our children with what they deserve: the single greatest nation in the history of the world.
comcast operates as a monopoly in half of the US... ISPs are regulated, but comcast's practices as a singular provider in the market are not sustainable and will lead to numerous issues in the future. there are many, many companies in the US that have 0 concern with your financial and/or physical safety, and we see that across pharma, food, and energy. we are severely lacking effective regulation of numerous industries, even with what we currently have. reformation is key.
an the lobbying practices and corporate dominance of the political process effectively locks the american people out of the democracy. the longer we allow that, the longer we allow companies to do as they please ultimately.

Calvin China is completely capitalist dude. They're a factory nation. They are not communist.
Our dollar is below the US dollar, which is great news for farmers and such, as it means demand for Canadian grains and livestock will be massively increased, and next year the latest vehicles will be approximately $10 000 cheaper here than in the US, though the majority of Alberta and parts of Saskatchewan are suffering some economic downfalls due to the recent layoffs in the oil fields, there's still active sources of income, for example Saskatchewan also has multiple potash mines across the country, and Alberta also has alternative sources of income, though they did depend on oil quite a bit. Overall, our economy is by no means at massive threat. In fact, this is following the trend of oil, which goes up a couple decades, then goes down for a while too before climbing back up again. Any more questions?

China is a dictatorship. Anyone who's not wealthy doesn't has limited personal freedom. Their economy is doing well because they are a borderline slave nation.

Calvin socialism is a cutting-corners way to equality and sacrifices personal freedoms. And it does not work on a large scale. The Nordic countries have only a few million people. Bigger countries like Canada and Australia's economies are volatile. Canada's dollar is in the toilet right now. And we're ten times larger than them.
Agreed. I have a few Swedish friends, one of whom has lived here in Canada for quite a few years now. He commented that a lot of policies being implemented in Sweden soon find their way to Canadian politics too, and that was something that made me happy. I would rather be like Sweden than over 90% of other countries.

yes what would change exactly other than the number of people being affected by the economic policy, i genuinely am interested to know and am not saying it in a condescending way

Let's also not forget that Denmark/Sweeden are 9999999999999999 times smaller than America, but I am sure their policies for the small countries they are would work PERFECTLY here

Orly I didn't mean anything in a negative way. I was just stating a fact that the current young generation (which I'm a part of) is generally socially liberal. That's a good thing IMO
