The best example of how socialism fails was impressed upon me in college years ago…..not sure of all the specifics of which college or course but the baseline story was that instead of giving the students their actual grades that each individual worked for that the professor was just going to give everyone the same grade based on the average of the class grades…..( similar to how socialism shares the desire to make sure everyone should receive the same benefits of it despite some contributing more and some contributing less to the program)
Well, the interesting results were that the class slackers that were failing anyway improved their overall grade because of all the hard working students that were studying and participating helped the failing scores go up to what the class average was………conversely, the hard working students that were always at the top of their class said screw it, if I’m getting the average of the class anyway then why am I trying so hard if I’m just going to get the same as everyone else.
End of the semester using that grading model had everyone failing……the slackers got improvement and didn’t work any harder to get it and the hard workers went the other way and said why bother trying to improve myself and by end of the semester we’re failing…. True story, it’s documented.
Best snapshot of how libdem socialism is drawn up and fails those it’s serving……..dumbing down at its finest.
