Chicago’s political leadership is floating a pension buyout program as evidence it is seriously addressing the city’s thirty-six-billion-dollar unfunded pension liability, but Mark Glennon, founder of the Illinois policy research organization Wirepoints, said that the proposal moves debt from one column to another rather than reducing it, and that the broader fiscal picture facing the city continues to deteriorate across every measurable dimension.

Those Communist Americans never lived under actual Communism. Living under Communism is totally different and awful than glorifying it from afar. ☹️
Don’t call them socialists. They are communists. When you start with socialism and add their hostility to free speech, selective application of due process, use of violence and all the rest you have communism.
So the Democratic Socialists of America would more aptly be called the Democratic Communists of America?
Yes.
…although it would be more appropriate to remove the word “Democratic” from the equation altogether.
They’re more aptly called “The Democrat Party”

Excellent!
They misuse language constantly. I would call them Fascists but Communists also works. The state of America today is 96% the result of Leftist domination of the malevolent farce called “education”. The remaining 4% was caused by rock ‘n’ roll music! WHERE IS OUR GEORGE ORWELL?
