Más estupidez racista

 

Here's Part Six of my indepth investigation of some right-wing nut-job's unholy screed.  Last time I managed to demolish his moronic contention that socialism leads to national epidemics of laziness which then leads to moral degeneracy.  "The Devil finds work for idle hands."  Basically RWNT (Bob Bishop) said that socialists offer lazy people who have no pride the base of Maslow's hierarchy of needs and that's why North Koreans are starving.  Read the last post if you haven't already.  Here's a bit more:

At the same time, it ignores the human psyche that strives for psychological and self-actualization (top of Maslow’s pyramid), which creates a more vibrant and prosperous society.

I called this post "More racist stupidity" because at some point in his ravings, Bob Bishop starts in on immigrants.  That doesn't happen here obviously, but who gives a fuck.  The racism will come later.

So, US-Americans are encouraged by their country's political-economic system to develop themselves to their fullest potential and that's what makes theirs such an awesome society.

Remember that this is a US-American right-winger.  Public healthcare is Stalinism.  Environmentalism is a Marxist power-grab.  Labour unions are criminal conspiracies.  Social Security is a theft-based Ponzi-scheme that is bankrupting the nation.  Free tuition is some sort of class/generational warfare.  Assistance for the unemployed will turn everyone into North Koreans, lying on their couches all day too weak from hunger to play their video games or masturbate.

In short: A total ignoramus, too stupid and proud to see how disconnected from reality he is.

In my last post I provided a link that shows how life expectancies in the USA are shorter than in other high-income countries.  I don't know yet how much self-actualization you can do between 78.8 years old and 82.3 years old, but you can probably do a little.

Infant mortality in the USA is 6.3 per 1,000 live births.  In Canada it's 5 per 1,000.  In Denmark it's 3.6 and in Sweden it's 2.6.  Can't do a lot of self-actualization if you don't even get a chance to start.

It's common knowledge (or it fucking should be) that the incarceration rate in the USA is off the charts compared to similar OECD nations.

Finally, the USA lags behind other similar countries in social mobility.  That's probably because rich fucks in the USA aren't taxed, poor people are left with shitty schools, stressful lives, a poorer start in life, and therefore less chances to pursue the self-actualization that would have benefited them personally.

Basically, Bishop's entire premise is garbage based on ignorance and delusion.
