Food on shelves isn't exactly a shining compliment on a capitalist society when there are hungry and malnourished people living in it, lol.
It's just can fetishism.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

It's just can fetishism. Indeed it's a glorious testament to economic ignorance

So, your point is that in a capitalist environment the corporate market's shelves are loaded with products because the people can't afford to buy them, whereas in the the socialist environment the goods have been distributed to the families which need them?

Got any anti-socialist memes that show store shelves/landscapes in Denmark, Norway, or Sweden?

He gets so much of this shit backwards that I still can't decide if he's really that stupid, or if he's just a troll. He's kind of in the same boat as Huggy- pretty much ineducable.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Too bad Venezuela is neither socialist nor are it's issues caused by socialism and stocked shelves are not a sign of a good system when that food is wasted while people starve .

Yeah, and didn't you know that America has the best healthcare system in the world? You'd be splitting hairs to point out that only a select few of us have access to it.

The greatest Conservative excuse for America's awful system is the whole research argument . Too bad that fails because most of that research is not into serious medicine .
