lol very good educational picture which shows they are all forms of Socialism.
[/quote] Your a bit confused. The caption would be more suited to Fascism. The first socialists were humans huddled together in caves for warmth and security. The idea of huddling alone in the darkness would have been pretty scary.
All societies are based on socialism. There are people who believe that they, as individuals, have a right to own everything on earth including all food, water and energy. The idea (to them) that other people living on the planet are entitled in any way to those resources, without paying tribute to the self appointed owners is called SOCIALISM.

PEOPLE are sociable,
GOVERNMENTS are socialist, as far as what they say, but the managers are never satisfied to live like those they rule over.
When the managers live next to the janitors maybe then it will be sincere, but not until then, and not while they live in govt appointed luxury

Original Message very interesting film!

HOUR 1: THE RISE
HOUR 2: REVOLUTIONS
HOUR 3: THE COLLAPSE

Socialism became the most popular political idea in history. Its provenance was European, but it spread to China and Africa, India and Latin America and even to that most tradition-bound of regions, the Middle East. While it never fully took root in America, its influence shaped the nation's political debate. At its crest in the 1970s, roughly 60 percent of the earth's population lived under governments that espoused socialism in one form or another. Then, suddenly, it all collapsed.
