    Who benefits from the government buying 50% overvalued shares? And when these companies inevitably fail, why should half the cost be soialized?

      It’s not buying it, it’s seizing it. That’s means taking by force, you don’t pay for that. Try reading.

          It wouldn’t even happen under the current government. Republicans and liberals are too afraid of what they call government overreach.

          Bernie isn’t a capitalist, I think y’all are wayyyy overthinking this one lol

                How does social democracy affirm capitalism over socialism? By maintaining private ownership of the means of production without transitioning to a dictatorship of the proletariat. How is Bernie a social democrat? By holding to reform over revolution, and siding with the US over overthrowing it.
