1. bank bailouts – not cap. or soc. just a bad policy
2. expanding wars – wars are bad, but socialist counties go to war all the time see Germany and Russia, not a cp v soc issue
3. immigrant bashing – once again thsi is bad, but that is individuals bashing and trying to use the government for discrimination…the same could be done in both cap and soc
4. sweeping budget cuts to education and social services – [citiation needed] but yes this would finailly be a cap v soc issue
5 attacks on LGBT civil rights – see answer to 3

This conference seems like they have many good ideas (I agree with 4 of 5 points), but they somehow think “socialism” is a cure all every bad policy decisions
