Britain's Bernie Sanders

More Than Mortal · August 13, 2015, 04:08:00 PM

Is this wacky fuck nugget:

Jeremy Corbyn.

Has referred to Hamas as "friends".
Wants to raise corporation tax to fund free higher education.
Wants to raise the top bracket of income tax, despite the fact that it would only raise a few hundred million.
Wants to renationalise the railways (they're already nationalised, but not many people seem to know that).
Wants to renationalise the energy sector (muh coal mines).
Wants to fund infrastructure projects by printing money.

What's with all the left-wing pseudo-socialist loonies at the moment?

Remember when liberals argued from strong positions of Keynesianism, using capitalism to benefit the poor and disenfranchised instead of just insisting the government own everything and suck up crippling debt?

Pepperidge Farms remembers.

Why is the UK so adamant to rely on the state for everything? Is it like a culture thing or something?

It's almost like a moral obesity.
