Free education -Soviet Union, China, Cuba, Vietnam

We can go on and on and on and on and on.

If one is an “anti tankie”, then it must follow that one must be against these kinds of policies.

Progressives and leftists DREAM of having these things. But they’re committed to being against the tankies.

They have yet to demonstrate how the masses are supposed to get these benefits by negotiating and appealing to the good graces of capitalists.

But they’re TERRIFIED at the prospect that the people.may do these exact things AT GUNPOINT. As if they know those guns are meant for them.

    Algerian stuff

    Algeria has free health care, free education, work unions since 1954, free housing, cheap transport (completely free train rides if you’re a college student) and for a while it had the “الارض لمن يخدمها” policy (it was after pied noir left and Algeria couldn’t take care of lands it nationalized so it gave it away to farmers who worked on it) just wanted to share them

        It takes a while,but you just place the order then wait a year or two until they build it then they give you the keys to live in it, I think it was like 6 million since 2013, this November they announced around 130k people

        The a football field here but sometimes there’s swings and slides, also renting out these after getting it for free will land you 15 years in jail

          Do you get access to some temporary free housing before it’s built? Are there any particular conditions for getting/keeping an apartment (aside from following the laws)? E.g. if you’re unable to work for whatever reason

            I am not sure, but most people get along the waiting period because the algerian society is completely fine with people as old as 30 living with their parents/family then placing order when marrying, if there’s a trend change and people start to look down upon this maybe they’ll give the fee

            Are there any particular conditions for getting/keeping an apartment (aside from following the laws)?

            Nope

      Thank you.

      I honestly have to argue what the fuck they wanna talk about when they mean they’re against tankies. Cause if it’s being against policy; I have ZERO idea why they arent just far right libertarians.

        When they are against tankies, they are for their self-interests. They just are too narcissistic to admit selfishness. That’s all.

            I want to make sure I understand your meaning…

            “We will make sure people have a bed to sleep in and a full belly. And we will make sure UP TO using the gun to see that it happens.”

            …Is that what you mean?

            Because I would LOVE and I mean fucking. LOVE for my country to be downright draconian as the 10th circle of Hell to see to it that the people have all that they need.

            Genuinely. Do you seriously have an issue with folks who want to hurt the common prosperity and welfare of the masses living a life of terror?

            Can you walk us through what you mean? Because forcing the common prosperity and security of the masses at gun point is unironically the most moral and right thing to do.

            Frankly. I seriously think these “socialists” who want to means test socialism should be put in prison.
