Social democracy can mean different things. Wikipedia has this definition: Social democracy - Wikipedia. Social democracy is not a rock the boat philosophy of government. It functions within the democratic, free enterprise system. The USA already has some, for example, social security and Medicaid. There isn't one flat, international definition of what social democracy ought to be.My experience with it comes from being a Canadian. The term social democracy is not very much used here. Rather, the prevalent term is “social safety net”. People who think it has gone too far might use the term “Welfare State”. There are very, very few people in Canada who want to abandon the social safety net altogether.Social democracy, operating in a federal state, does not operate the same way as social democracy in a unitary state. Canada's social safety net is not run its is entirety by the federal government. The provincial governments have their own, discreet powers. For example, the “Canadian government medicare” that some more conservative Americans like to express anxiety about, does not exist. Health care is a responsibility of the provincial governments. Comprehensive medicare in Canada began in the Province of Saskatchewan, in the early 1960's. Other provinces watched it and then liked it, and instituted their own medicare plans. However, some of the Canadian provinces are a lot poorer than others. They would not, on their own, be able to maintain medicare at the standards of the better off ones. The federal government dealt with that by instituting the Canada Health Act: Canada Health Act - Wikipedia. They gained some leverage on the system by kicking in some money, particularly for the benefit of the poorer provinces. Participation by the provinces was voluntary, but they all chose to do so. Under the Canada Health Act, the provinces commit to basic nationwide standards for medicare. Things have been going reasonably smoothly.So, the USA does not have just the one government for the social democrats to control. The scenario might rather be, at a federal general election, that both Houses of Congress have majorities that favour some variant of social democracy. However, there would be gridlock, unless a President who believes in social democracy wins (In order to do so, he might be better off not to use that term.) In all likelihood, there will be a few states with legislatures and Governors who might want to give it a try, hopefully, a mix of different types (So, maybe, like Vermont, New York State, Pennsylvania, Oregon and California.) Then the United States Administration would have to work with them very fast, so as to quickly set up some model programmes. Above all, social democracy is about having competent bureaucracies, supported by significant infrastructure and software, tightly supervised by a government auditor-general.Act Very FastThat pro social democracy justice Congress will have just two years, not to so much alienate large parts of the American populace, that they lose. Were I the doubtless, highly-stressed soul, who was creating a communications strategy, I would start with a declaration of what is not going to happen and what social democracy does not mean, for example:-There will be no attempted amendments to the United States Constitution.-Social democracy is not about restricting the rights of gun owners.-Any proposed programmes that would have, under the Constitution, to be operated by a state, will be absolutely voluntary. No state will be compelled to do anything. There will be opting out provisions for any state that tries a programme and doesn't like it.-I would make it clear, any increases to America's social safety net, will make economic and other benefits to individuals, not any particular group.-I would go as far as saying that, for at least the initial two years, the federal government will not use social democracy to identify and increase equity and affirmative action programmes.-The United States federal government, under no circumstances, will not attempt to copy the social democratic systems of other countries. I would go as far as saying, that the much feared Scandinavian model, will not be considered, because those are unitary countries. United States social democracy will be made in America. At best, the USA will look at a few precedents, for specific programmers, from a few federal countries.-Social democracy will not be applied against undocumented immigration. Nor will it used to deter immigration reform.-Social democracy will not imply, looking for bilateral or multilateral agreements with other countries. Rather, existing agreements will be examined concerning how they effect social democracy and the protection of working Americans. (For example, the Democratic Party has serious concerns about how the wage and working condition standards of the USMCA could be enforced in Mexico.)-For any programme, there will be stringent enforcement against fraud, and a policy of avoiding habituation to benefits, unless an individual has health or disability issues that are unlikely to go away.Would the USA Go Beyond Benefits To Individuals?Canadian federal social programming is focused on providing benefits to individuals, but, it has another element that Americans might struggle with. That is, an entire province or region can be seen as a client.Canada maintains a system of “transfer payments”, with the federal governments transferring support money given by the wealthier provinces, to the poorer ones. Provincial identities can be be as strong or stronger than the national one. (Partly because Canada has two major cultures, a Quebec sort of nation, and highly-regionalized identities in English-speaking Canada.) There is a not so directly spoken assertion, that no Canadian will ever be compelled, by economic circumstances, or lesser benefit levels, to leave their home province.The federal government of Canada takes this principle farther, by creating “development agencies” for various regions of the country. For example, there is The Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency: Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency, or the federal Economic Initiative for Northern Ontario: Home - FedNor. I suppose these are marginal comparable to the Tennessee Valley Authority, but they are not just infrastructure focused, and are meant to go on indefinitely.Please consider this, American progressives, would you advocate for an Appalachian America Opportunities Agency, or a set of similar ones, say, for the inner Southwest, Northern Texas, and the Ozarks? Would you be prepared to advocate for a Southeast one? And, would you support transfer payments, to the states of Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama, or maybe even Puerto Rico?Would You Let Some Americans Get More Than You Would?While a lot of Canadian social democracy requires the voluntary participation of the provincial governments, the federal Government of Canada operates some parts of the social safety net under its own constitutional authority. Among them are nationwide Employment Insurance, the Canada Pension Plan, the Old Age Pension, and the Old Age Security (OAS) pension, Guaranteed Income Supplement (GIS): Guaranteed Income Supplement - Overview. The provincial governments are not involved.Because Employment Insurance is operated by the federal government, it does not at all mean that every unemployed person in Canada gets benefits for the same amount of time. Canada has extended benefits, that refer to the unemployment rate in the region where you live. So, an unemployed Torontonian gets just the minimum number of weeks, but someone, for example, in much of the four Atlantic Provinces, more. And not everybody's Old Age Pension benefits get paid the same. Poorer seniors get GIS.A new, social democracy oriented United States federal government, would need to do some thinking, before it ever said the word “Canada”. (Bernie Sanders really ought to stop.) I do not think I would dare mention transfer payments, federal economic development agencies, the national EI programme with its extended benefits, or the OAS. The USA actually has a few similar national programmes, but, the Canadian package together, might cause panic. My guess is that most Americans would gag. The United States Economic Development Agency is not the same thing as identifying whole large regions as beneficiaries, more or less for good.There would still be hope though. Maybe the new social democratic administration could make a case for wide-scale labour mobility grants, much bigger retraining programmes for people in industries that are declining, no matter what, or even, early retirement. However, How would they finance it? The United States national debt is severely run up. What cuts could the new Administration find, and just who would they charge more taxes to? It would need a fast and early explanation.Lots And Lots of Research, Really Really FastAny Canadian bureaucrat will tell you, our social programmes do not run by the seat of their pants. Everything needs to be costed out, line, by line by line, and a presentation made to the federal or provincial Treasury Boards.Also, lawyers must rule. Any new piece of legislation, or a new regulation, must be examined word by word, including the need for iron clad defences against legal challenges. Proposed new laws and regulations get pre-published, with a period for public comment.Transition?It is almost contradictory, but, social democracy in Canada has greatly been assisted by a lack of infrastructure. Canada did not have big markets or big benefactors. When medicare came in, the provincial governments could build their hospital systems from close to scratch. Most universities are public and subsidized, because the market for private post-secondary education was small.What would the USA do with its own, massive, private sector infrastructure? Even the United Kingdom, despite the National Health Service, permits private hospitals and private medical practise. The new social democratic administration would have to promise what it won't touch.I Don't Think It Will Work In the USA, Even With A Social Democratic MajorityMy guess is that, social democratic administration will be able to do next to nothing. Social democracy, above all, is about bureaucracy, not passion. It means people, and whole regions, that you hate, get benefits. Social democracy will not accommodate identity politics or social punishments on bad groups and people. Social democracy means you have confidence in, and rely on government, as long as everything is subject to an audit, even a forensic one if necessary.How can this happen in the USA? It is foreign to American culture. It would violate deeply held American beliefs about personal responsibility and being prepared to lose big. It stirs up too much fear that some things could be better and fairer in other countries. There wouldn't be sufficient time to calm American fears and evaluate model programmes. I very much doubt that an American government that advocated for it, would last more than two years.Martin Levine

Update on the conclusion. January 14th 2021I didn’t say who I think would win the war, and who can say. I have read a lot on the subject, and I would bet on congressional forces over the right, on the long run. This is just a guess, after reading opinions left and right, and getting some more facts. The left stands for progress, the right does not, that will be an essential difference. Big tech is ready for war, especially cyber warfare and high tech weaponry, this would quickly be a high tech drone war lead by the left and big tech. Most harbours would be in congressional hands, the military may be split to republican 50%, but only when you include veterans. Most influence will lie with the left, the same goes for young troops.Blue regions have a much higher GDP, they would out-pay the red states and easily replace most products from there with Mexican and Canadian/European products. China and Russia are much further left than the US right. Trade with the US left would be much more lukrative to foreign partners. I would like to see the right try and cut a trade agreement with China, against the US Left. Try running your gear without Chinese supply chains. The right would end up with few, ‘weak’ allies. I can’t see the EU, or Australia, or anyone else committing troops or hardware to either side, but certainly, trade would suffice to make a difference. All the left has to do, is keep trade lines (shipping and air) open, that shouldn’t be hard. I guess, the left would quickly get into massive drone development. It is pretty clear that most intellect is on the left. Elon Musk is not an intellectual, he is a Trump supporter marketing genius. His likes will likely leave the scene until it’s over, they don’t care about anything.Veterans and Gun enthusiasts on the right will pose a problem for a while, even after the left wins. They will cause havoc just out of spite.If the right would attack foreign shipping, then the whole thing could get nasty, even nuclear, and quickly.Sadly, at this point, I can’t see them come to a table and talk it out, not without mediation. But for mediation, Americans are too proud believers in American exceptionalism to accept outside help, which at this time, is utterly absurd.Update January 14th 2021: We are getting closer and closer to violence, real violence. Of course, to anyone with a sense of reality and a keen eye for observation, these things do not come as a surprise: Neo-Nazis trying to recruit military servicemembers to assassinate elected officials: reportUpdate January 8th 2021: US Capitol riots: Police officer dead, bringing fatality toll to five - Now, the assault is one thing, another matter entirely, is that 32% of all registered voters in the US think this coup attempt was a good Idea. - Most voters say the events at the US Capitol are a threat to democracy | YouGovUpdate Dezember 1st 2020: Here we go: Pro-Trump attorney calls for martial law to prevent election loss to Joe BidenUpdate September 10th 2020In a series of simulation games, a team led by law professor Rosa Brooks from Georgetown University in Washington explored several scenarios. Check out the executive summary of their findings:>>> Preventing a Disrupted Presidential Election and Transition.pdf <<< Read it.Update, June 8th 2020So it seems, much of the military brass has at least some disdain for Trump. The latest use of troops in DC against peaceful protesters, and unmarked policemen refusing to identify themself is simply unconstitutional. Some are now beginning to open their mouths about it, let’s hope it has a lasting effect, and that it might remind some Republican politicians that their oath is to the constitution, not the president. [1][1][1][1][2][2][2][2]I guess, at this point, as I said before, it is very unlikely that such a war happens.End UpdateMore updates at the end of this answer________________________________Anyone who believes that an actual civil war in the US would be any less horrific than what you are about to read, whom are you kidding. Hypothetically speaking, if the US armed forces were to go at it against one another, then it would be worse than a war against Russia or China, as it would be fought entirely in the homes and backyards of US families, even in schools, from New England to san Diego, and from the Florida Keys to Portland Oregon. It would be nothing less than a massacre, a firestorm of ‘biblical’ proportions, made entirely in the United States of America.That’s what happens when you have the most powerful armed forces on the planet divided, battling on both sides of a civil war, at home.But, I do not believe such a thing will happen, well, not an uprising anyway.Not because Americans are scared of a fight, or too smart to start a war on their own turf, but because they have become complacent, almost apathetic. History showed us that revolutions are preceded by people starving and dying en masse, famine, tyranny etc. The French revolution was a long time coming, then it changed the world.Even todays French would have burned down the capital and chopped off their leader’s head by now, if the French government were to behave like the US government currently does. Americans won’t do more than send an angry tweet here and there, trusting in their US institutions to save them, institutions that have al been disabled and dismantled by Trump, the GOP and the DOJ.It just won’t happen, too much gaming, too much cheer leading, too much YouTube influence, too much social media, too much reality TV, Coca Cola, RedBull, iPhone, X-Box, baseball, too much junk food, NBA, too much budweiser, Kardashians etc. etc. - in short, too much distraction.A civil war, a divided military, two sides battling each other, one pro government, the other pro congress, also unlikely. There are too many sane people involved, too many patriots who simply follow their commander in chief, whom the voter told them to follow. If it came down to the voters against a corrupt president, I would guess the president would find himself protected by some armed white supremacists, against the secret service and the marine corps. Remind me to get popcorn when that starts.So, just for argument’s sake, here we goLet’s first look at other crisis from the past, and this current one, to see how Americans handle them. (my conclusion is at the bottom)Hurricane Katrina was a perfect disaster when measured by the government’s response. Solidarity between states was lacking altogether. [3][3][3][3]To this day, the US remains the only modern country without some sort of universal health care. This seems to come from a deep but flawed (in my view) sense of freedom, and ‘dis’solidarity, disunity and discord. The freedom to not ‘have to’ help a neighbor in distress is guaranteed by the constitution, yet utterly unamerican. Ironically, these people often call themselves Christian.It’s the same with the gun enthusiasts, ‘My second amendment’ above all, even above my neighbor’s children’s lives or other fellow Americans’ right to the pursuit of happiness.After Katrina, the hit locations in the South were mostly left to themself when it came to relieving the suffering and the loss.When disasters strike, states are left to fend for themself, be it California during forest fires, be it Puerto Rico, or new orleans after a hurricane, or New York during a pandemic. If Mitch McConnell would get his way, states would be left to go bankrupt. Well, that’s blue states only. Red states keep mooching, blue states keep being suckers. That, of course, would be the end of the republic, would lead to the collapse of the US economy, maybe to a revolution, if anything.All in all, there’s no unity between states, nor between parties.Let’s jump forward to the current viral pandemic.What do we know, what can we observe?As of today, barely 0.3% of the US population are affected, sick with covid-19, one in 300. Many people don’t even know anyone who’s sick.Still, the virus is very infectious and spreads quickly among all parts of society, making unpopular measures necessary that hit the poor the most, devastating those without health care, or living from paycheck to pay check.The measures are executed half assed and often opposed, either by state governors, or by misinformed, gaslighted, angry, mostly conservative, ignorant citizens and Elon Musk.The president is incompetent, and has no scruples, he makes cruel and unethical decisions and is willing to sacrifice human lives for financial or political benefit, while checks and balances have been dismantled and GOP and the DOJ corrupted to the point of dysfunctionality. America is utterly without leadership.‘Protesters’, armed like soldiers, behaving like rogue armies risk the lives of fellow Americans without a second thought. They willingly ignore the likely horrific economic and social fallout from their selfish actions and behaviour, should a second shut down become necessary.Some see in their leader’s tweets a call to arms. (only, against whom?) Liberate the state, only from whom? [4]Scenes like the ones below are only possible in the US. In any other developed country, such behaviour is virtually unseen. Look at them. These are not the people who would give their lives to protect the constitution (as they claim), they are ignorant, poorly educated babies with deadly weapons.Mounted night vision gear in full daylight, while wearing shades, moronic. Likely a bunch of potential bone sparrow draft dodgers, or unfit for service.These people actually threaten their fellow Americans with weapons of war, during a national health crisis. I believe most of these fake patriots have no real idea what they are on the street for, armed for an actual armed revolution. As a former soldier, I watch the behaviour of many of these angry people and I worry. They have no training, a lack of reason, no understanding of how to analyse and control a situation, no discipline, no one in charge, no hierarchy, no plan, and no cohesion other than their common hatred. These are neither warriors, nor patriots, not even bad copies thereof.Warriors on the path know whom they are mobilising against, and why.Ask yourself, who are these freaks prepared to shoot at? What for? To what end?Their local government? (The army would probably move in, at the very least well armed, well trained SWAT. Many of these wannabe Rambos would soon piss their pants.)Health care workers who ask them to stay home? (certifiable psychopathy)Fellow American citizens? (certifiable psychopathy)So far, having less than 1% of the population affected, resulted in,A badly planned and terribly executed economic and social nationwide shut down, wreaking havoc on the countries basic structures22 million Americans losing their jobs within 6 weeks, many losing their health care coverage as a consequence, devastating families and communitiesPeople hoarding toilet paper, clueless as to why.A president contradicting himself on a daily base, confusing the audience that is watching to get reasonable, factual and competent information, endangering society and national security instead of offering reliefA president who effectively suggests for American citizens to ingest disinfectant to kill the virus and clean the human body from inside…A president who abuses ‘corona press briefings’ for self praise, to baselessly and rudely attack the media, and for campaign propagandaA president who attempts to financially benefit from selling tests, as well as untested vaccines and treatments, setting the country back 2 months on testing and preparednessAmericans running out of medication, insulin, and nutritious, healthy foodAmericans dying by the ten thousands, currently:GOP senator McConnell wanting to let blue states go bankrupt. Ironically, the blue states pay for his state. Kentucky is a mooch, blue states are suckers. AP FACT CHECK: Blue high-tax states fund red low-tax statesSome food supply chains becoming problematic. Thousands of tons of food being destroyed on farms because of a flawed, solely profit-efficiency oriented logistics infrastructure and supply chainThe lack of solidarity and social division within the US becoming a real and present danger to national securityArmed protester groups threatening local governments, law enforcement officers and even health care workersThe dysfunctioning of the republic becoming apparent, even evidentThe utter ignorance of around 40% of Americans becomes evident(they are by any rational standard, certifiably insane. This is not meant to insult, this is a rational, objective observation. [5][5][5][5]These groups approve of Trump, McConnell, the GOP, Barr etc, who altogether have been acting and behaving criminally, treasonous, corrupt, amoral, unamerican and altogether despicable. [6][6][6][6][7][7][7][7][8][8][8][8]Trump himself is evidently a traitor, he is criminal, ruthless, ignorant, poorly educated, greedy, cruel, pathologically narcissistic and a professionally diagnosed psychopath. These are evident facts, denying reality is counter productive, ignorant, at this level even certifiable. The Ego-Resilience in Trump supporters has crashed like old computers.The problem?The Behaviour has been normalised to a level that is downright blinding the affected. They are now unresponsive to reason, facts and reality.We’ve become accustomed to the threats, the lies, the gaslighting, the treason to the people, the treason to the constitution, the moonwalking, the narcissistic self praise, the scapegoating, the grifting, the offending, the attacking, the connyving, the nepotism, the hypocrisy, the harm to society, the hatred, the division, the danger, the fascism etc. The country is numb.A society in which conditions prevail as described, is called a textbook dystopia, one worse than the best authors could have ever made up.Really, you can’t make this shit up.If I were to see a hollywood blockbuster 4 years ago, with the US during the last 4 years being the subject, I would find it stunningly literary, on the levels of ‘1984’, at least, or the ‘handmaid's tale’. I am NOT KIDDING, but NOT REALISTIC.My ConclusionWell, imagine a dysfunctional country, with a civil population armed to the teeth, but not well organised nor competently led, with the greatest armed forces of all, and a civil war breaks out, yes at home, where did you think?(I don’t know all the details of what parts of the armed and policing forces would be on which side, or where they are deployed, but I gather the military power spread would likely be no more than 40/60 either way, resulting in a brutal, and possibly long war)(US troops, stationed abroad, may involve themself, others may just stay put, others may turn to piracy, others may seek new employment, others may simply desert or defect. I won’t get into that, too many variables)In an all out total war scenario, even without nuclear, the initial destruction would be stunningly shocking. If any battle groups are withdrawn to home turf, with brutal aerial and naval bombardments, coastal cities would really take a big hit, especially industrial zones, major freight hubs and LNG terminals. Splitting the troupes by loyalty and reorganising them would be a hard test for even the best of commanders.What is certain, is that all citizens would be involved in some manner, not just 1%, every single American living stateside would be involved. The hatred and violence would spread like wildfire, or should I say like a virus. This war would mercilessly envelop all states, involve every person and result in,an exodus of money, responsible parents with family and the means to leave, scientists, artists, medical personnel, entrepreneurs and generally, intellectmillions fighting in their homes, their towns, against neighbors and familythe republican militia, mostly lacking reason, training, a plan, competent leadership and discipline, inevitably running out of supplies and eventually starting to plunder and marauder, wreaking havoc on the rural population that are supposed to feed themwomen taken from their homes, trafficked, raped or killed, by the millionsmillions of children abducted, displaced, trafficked, orphaned or killeddiseases spreading, old ones and new ones while medical supplies running out and medical professionals leavinghomes, businesses, entire cities destroyedthe infrastructure collapsingpeople in cities starving by the millionslocal skirmishes for supplies and power, everywhereforeign trade halting altogether, supply chains failingdomestic trade and local rulership shifting to ‘gangs’ and armed militiasthe economy totally crashing, actually physically crashingthe dollar losing its rating and its dominant global leadUS eventually defaulting on its obligations and going bankruptAfter the smoke would lift, after a second US civil war, the continent America would reemerge, but not the US. The US as a country would have ceased to exist, that much I am quite certain of.Wouldn’t you rather sit down and talk it out.Peace ☮️Important update July 18th 2020, from my comment replies:The SA were hitler’s ‘personal bullies, especially early on. The SA did lose importance after the assassination of Ernst Röhm in ’34 though, when Himmler’s influence grew dramatically. This is interesting, and goes to why I even answered this question. At first I found the question too hypothetical, but it does have, and is gaining more validity, fast.I try to see the strategy in what the Trumps, the GOP, Barr etc. are doing/preparing. To believe it’s all just stupid, would be a lethal mistake. In fact, they may make/let Trump look so stupid as a distraction, a bluff. Let’s face it, the pardons are especially suspicious. I can see Barr in the role of Göring, or Himmler, Esper would be Himmler, Stone would make an good Goebbels, maybe Chad Wolf will take a position of power, I see him as GOP loyal. They will use the pardoned military criminals to help organise Trump’s ‘S.A.’, later SS, with the police and military joining, just playing the ball here though. I look at how the entire GOP has literally crumbled under Trump and gone treasonously rogue and unconstitutional. Unimaginable even 4 years ago. High ranking Senators and Congressmen having turned 180°. Who can say how many top and middle level military personnel have been corrupted coerced or ‘forced’ into serfdom by now. Possibly with Russian kompromat, or threats to families and such. Gee, I don’t know, I just try to make sense of a totally ‘fallen’ GOP.The military industrial complex is one thing, but they lack the actual manpower on the streets. They need military brass to separate the troops, get the GOP loyals ready for a coup, if that’s the plan.If there is a coup, it will likely be GOP and White House forces against Congressional and liberal forces. I just hope the FBI, Congress and others involved on the liberal side are monitoring things. US Attorney For Oregon Calls For Investigation Into Portland Protester ArrestsIf the origin of the S.A. is anything to go by, then Barr and or Esper will likely throw together some biker clubs, some private security, some loyal state police members and some militias for that. Between Barr and Esper, I guess Barr will make Esper into Röhm once the grab is over and power established. Or Esper might aspire to become chairman of the joint chiefs, replacing General Mark A. Milley, whom I don’t see as a loyalist. I believe General John E. Hyten may be convinced to take the WH side, considering what is public of his character. I don’t know the individuals on top of the military too well, but I am sure they are currently being shuffled into position. If we think a coup is out of the question, I think we may have another thing coming. Unmarked police kidnapping protesters is just a rehearsal, don’t think for one second these atrocities are not purposed, or strategic. They say the secret service dislikes Trump, who can say, I don’t know. I know that the Marine corps has a high percentage of GOP men.I do know these crooks won’t just lie down and offer the jugular in November. Too many of them are in way too deep already, with all bridges burned. They will pull out every weapon in their arsenal, and the tools in there aren’t constitutional. Just listen to their rhetoric, watch what they do, nothing is normal anymore, nothing is constitutional, we’re way past that already, except the people don’t see it.
