Y'all. The thing I'm trying to get at is she is a CHILD. I don't support socialism, but did he explain what it meant to her? Did he only take candy away and tell her it was because of socialism? Teaching a child something is bad without giving reason is no way to raise them. Also, they begged the candy off of people anyway.

You're right, he shouldn't just take the candy away. She'll never learn if he stops there. He should also take her toys, food, clean water, soap, toilet paper, bread and milk.
Then she can figure out for herself if govt-run Socialism is what she wants.
I'm not a communist! I just fucking hate the Trump family and their need to make everything political! That is a 3 year old! Did you understand different forms of government at 3?
Well, clearly you haven't because none of your posts are fucking funny. Children need to be able to develop their own sense of self. And nah I don't care about grammar or sounding professional so don't come at me with that superior grammar nazi attitude.
That is a little kid who doesn't know why daddy just took away her candy. She's going to be raised to believe capitalism is the only way. If she wants to learn about capitalism instead of socialism, how about she switches places with a child laborer? Or maybe has to learn about the suffering America's (and other developed countries') consumerist society has created.
Fuck outta here. Nothing really works in society. Everything sounds ok on paper. The candy metaphor is dumb as hell because being a kind and considerate person doesn't have anything to do with socialism.
Oh fuck off. Both of y'all look like muppets. Idk why you took my comment and made it an argument. Maybe one day you'll pull your heads out of your asses long enough to realize that the world doesn't revolve around American ideals.

That's what I always try to tell people.
It revolves around Texas Barbeque.
This is why lazy people like socialism and people who work don't.

I think that opt-in socialism/communism is a great idea. It's essentially how a co-op works; letting one person buy groceries in super-bulk for the whole neighborhood ends up costing half the price for everyone. Everyone does get the same stuff, and it will all be store brand, not name brand, but small scale opt-in socialism can work among people who aren't lazy.
Enforcing socialism is a wildly different story.
First, she begged that candy off strangers instead of getting a job and buying her own. Second, if you want to teach her something non-rich kids learn early, take at least 1/3 of it and donate it to the local police and fire stations, send some of it to the state representatives, some to the city representatives, etc. And every piece she eats, make sure you take away 1/10 of it (depending on the sales/use taxes in the area). If she decides to share any, make sure you take the appropriate gift tax percentage. Make sure you also take some as the tax for owning a candy bucket to keep it in, take some any time she gets sticky and needs to use water to wash her hands, and any time she eats any with the lights on. And all of that is just as fucking stupid as the initial socialism comment.
Then she can figure out for herself if govt-run Socialism is what she wants.
Besides, haven't you ever heard of a joke?

Like when parents tell their kids they ate all their Halloween candy
