>>43245782As for a country that already implemented what Sanders wants to implement, look at Argentina. Mainly by printing money to finance social expenses and growing the size of the State enormously made people dependent on the politicians and public sector. Taxation becomes unbearable for small enterprises, reducing the production capacity, entering a vicious circle that ends up with everybody begging to the State to spare them some food.

>>43245793Democratic socialists have always been just one step behind of communism, and pretending their goals aren't the same as the communists' is a folly. In fact, if you read the declaration of principles of Communist Parties all over the world, they all state socialism as means to reach communism.
After Stalin's death, after the XX Congress of the Communist Party of the USSR, communist parties embrace the alternative of reaching socialism not only by armed revolution but by democrating means too. That's why 1957 is a breaking point.
