Maybe homelessness is not rising just because houses are expensive.

Maybe homelessness is high because US debt has increased inflation, taxes are high, minimum wages have raised costs, regulations have pushed up prices while crushing the economy, technology has lowered wages, and despair about US wars, debt, tyranny, moral decay, illegal immigration, offshoring, and welfare has killed the work ethic and has led to increased alcoholism and drug use.

Socialism fails every time?

Last I checked China,Denmark, Finland, Netherlands, Canada, Sweden, Norway, Ireland, New Zealand, and Belgium are still going quite strong. Not to mention the US

Lol, they all have social programs which qualifies them as socialist countries. I omitted Cuba and Venezuela because any one who knows anything about the countries knows they aren't in their current situation because of socialism. tsk tsk tsk XD

Actually I know. You see, there are these things called definitions. When something fits a definition, it becomes what that definition is describing.

For example, The US has multiple social programs such Disability, retirement, food stamps, and healthcare for the poor. This makes the US a socialist country. All the countries I referenced have these and more. All these countries exist on a planet known as Earth. You and I exist on a planet known as Earth. Therefore, you and I both live in a "Commie World"*.

*I'm assuming you're making the fallacious assumption that Socialism=Communism with this silly phrase.

Actually, if you had read that last comment in full describing the nature of definitions you will find I'm correct.

I have to say though, your rebuttal was amazing. I especially liked the part where you mistakenly called me wrong and offered no logical reason as to why.
