Here’s Obama saying exactly the same nice things about Castro and somehow nobody picked up on the fact that he was obviously a dirty commie redshirt in disguise

We all knew. But that was secondary to already being a gay Muslim married to a tranny.

It's weird for someone, who by his own admission has never changed his views, has still not costed his plans. You'd think that having been in politics for decades and being on the margin for so many of them that he'd have a plan ready. After all, his 2020 campaign bid is basically identical to his 2016 campaign bid. What he has been doing all this time?

The democratic socialist found himself in the center — of the stage and the squabbling.

Still more of a plan than "Mexico will pay for it"
The Mises group is a far right "think" tank. Hardly a neutral view.you are, and literally every single person who believes the Nazi economy even beings to approximate something that can loosely be described as remotely capitalist
how about stop reading the same lies and broadening / freeing your mind?
Nazi Economic Policy | David Gordon
The National Socialists had radical reforms in mind. The "unalterable" 25-point 1920 program of the party proposed, among other things, "that all unearned income, and all income that does not arise from work, be abolished"; "the nationalization of all trusts"; "profit-sharing in large...mises.org
Did they analyse the Nazis privatisation? Is that socialist now?
How about Hitlers strong stance on Private Property rights and how they maintained this? Is this also Socialism now?
The death camps were built on tenders and the contractual terms were negotiated.
There are enough journals and published historians to sink a ship, that characterise the economy of Germany as mixed and their ideology as a fascist dictatorship. Not Socialists by any means.

New studies show Medicare for All costs less than public option
Yale and Harvard researchers found that Medicare for All reduces costs while public option makes health care more expensive.
Multiple studies show Medicare for All would be cheaper than public option pushed by moderates
Yale and Harvard researchers: Medicare for All reduces costs, while public option makes health care more expensive
Two new studies further showed that the Medicare for All plan is not only cheaper than the status quo but also costs less than the public option moderates have claimed is more fiscally sound.
A study published in The Lancet this month by researchers at Yale University, the University of Florida and the University of Maryland estimated that Medicare for All would save $450 billion per year — about $2,400 in annual savings per family — and would prevent more than 68,000 unnecessary deaths each year.
"Our study is actually conservative because it doesn't factor in the lives saved among underinsured Americans—which includes anyone who nominally has insurance but has postponed or foregone care because they couldn't afford the copays and deductibles," Yale researcher Alison Galvani told Newsweek.
Medicare for All would allow the government to negotiate prices for care, as most Western nations with single-payer systems already do, and reduce overhead costs.
Biden and Buttigieg's proposals would actually increase costs, Galvani said.
"Without the savings to overhead, pharmaceutical costs, hospital/clinical fees, and fraud detection, 'Medicare for all who want it' could annually cost $175 billion dollars more than status quo," Galvani told Newsweek. "That's over $600 billion more than Medicare for all."

Lol. Hitler basically directed industries what to produce and in what quantity. That ain't capitalism mate, no matter how you spin it.

It makes sense why the Dems want open borders. It because they lost 150 million people to gun violence.
Probably white nationalists behind this. Although Biden seems to be blaming Bernie.
Kinda makes sense that a socialist would kill 150 million people, he wouldn’t be the first.
Biden was vice prez for 8 of those years, so he knows what he is talking about.

Hence, why it was mixed.
Those industries still extracted profits, maintained private property rights and were able to negotiate the contracts they had with the Nazis, which gave them some autonomy over the means of production.
You also exclude the fact that there were still other industries not directly associated with the war machine, who operated in a free market economy.
The wartime economy of any country is going to have substantial government influence, directing companies to produce for the government.
Even the USA did it.

On another note, the corona virus is probably the biggest threat to Trump and his reelection, if things crash then its far more likely going to be Bernie 2020.
Was going to say this.

I have to agree with you on this one. The irony is the a Bernie win will probably be the final nail in the coffin.
