As a Finn I've never ever heard anyone paying 56% income tax if they're normal ordinary workers. Millionaires pay up to that but they can afford it. I'm a normal working man and I pay 24% income tax...

Ditto here in Canada, too. We pay around 20-22 percent of the income, including employment insurance. And yet pay zero dollars for the healthcare. Yet U.S. folks pay their these basic taxes on the top of out-of-pocket fees like deductibles, coinsurance, and co-payments that could add thousands of dollars per month to per family. So who is paying more? Alas many Americans are so brainwashed.

I actually watched this interview first, then saw people's commentary like Rational National, TYT, and Pakman. I am glad that the way I viewed the interaction was not just me. I frequently find myself having to defend a position alone or with half-hearted support, it is reassuring to see that I am one of many, e pluribus unum. One of the reasons I frequently watch Progressives is b/c I grew up being Socialist, living in a conservative household... typical family interactions, that we all have, I would make observations and comment on it, and get laughed at for my simple-mindedness. Well, I went and educated myself, I gained experience, I worked within the system and I found out I was right. Not just my family, my extended family, my close friends, strangers that I struck the right chord with... we were all behaving in a Socialist manner, except when there was an other... someone not considered part of the group for ANY reason b/c the same reason was not universal ie Protestant/Catholic/Atheist; White/Asian/Black; Poor/Mostly Poor/Rich; Unemployed/Employee/Busi Owner. So, they are not racist, not sectarian, not classist they just didn't like that person, and found a reason to exclude them from the group and that is fine for your social circle, but the govt social circle is ALL of us.

It's also crony capitalism. I think we should look at the USSR in a new way and actually see we are moving towards it. A big problem of the USSR is that the state had unchecked power and any group having unchecked power is bad. I think we should have a true mixed economy. That means the state should not only provide public utilities but should set up an entirely separate institution with it's own laws to directly compete with the public sector in certain things. Things like basic food and items such as beds, cars, chairs, pots/pans, cutlery, stuff that every single person needs. They can make the basic ones but still allow private companies as well. These state industry items would also serve as a sort of anchor on the cost of living as it's hard to charge a 70% profit ratio if one at just 10% continues to exist. The problem of the USSR was that they banned private industry altogether so as to maintain their absolute control.

More in line with what goes on in the rest of the civilized world instead of us moving back to the 1940's or 50's.
