I'm sorry you feel that way mate, I've always thought that you judge how good a countries society is by how it treats its old,infirm and vulnerable...if giving them enough help to better themselves or get well and not turn them away because they don't have means is socialism then I guess I must be a socialist. (I'm a Brit enjoying a change in scenery btw). Elements of socialism can be a good thing, think of it as a safety net. Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able, and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God? ~Epicurus 33 A.D I am being held down by four greys as i type this ~ Florence 2015 A.D |

(I'm a Brit enjoying a change in scenery btw). Quoting: optimusprimate Elements of socialism can be a good thing, think of it as a safety net. Spot on! Free health care, free basic education, workers' rights (decent maternal leave, limited work hours, minimum wage,...) and welfare are essential to a civilized society. What purpose does a society have if it doesn't take care of its sick, weak and vulnerable? Society is all about having a safety net and sharing skills. If the only functions of a society are supposed to be the protection of property, liberty, and peace, we might as well go back to living in small tribes or families. Sure there are people who are going to abuse the system and waste my money that would be better spent somewhere else, but so what? That's not a reason to deny the societal safety net from the majority of people who really need help. Charity is not going to cut it, because people are fundamentally selfish. Furthermore, getting help would depend on irrelevant matters like your appearance, ability to present yourself, and who you know. That's not right. |

(I'm a Brit enjoying a change in scenery btw). Quoting: optimusprimate Elements of socialism can be a good thing, think of it as a safety net. In any event, there is a world of a difference between bogus or bourgeoisie socialism and revolutionary or worker socialism. This from Manifesto: The second subset of Socialism is Conservative, or Bourgeois, Socialism. This subset reflects the desires of a segment of the bourgeois to redress social grievances, in order to guarantee the continued existence of bourgeois society. Followers of this idea include "economists, philanthropists, humanitarians, improvers of the condition of the working class, organisers of charity, members of societies for the prevention of cruelty to animals, temperance fanatics, [and] hole-and-corner reformers of every kind." They want the advantages of the social conditions generated by Modern Industry, without the struggles and dangers that necessarily accompany them. "They wish for a bourgeoisie without a proletariat." These bourgeoisie believe that the best society is the society in which they have power; they want the proletariat to keep its weak role, but to stop hating the dominant bourgeoisie. |

America's values are based on these so-called libtard developments (from the Age of Reason). It would pay to research the roots of America's egalitarian principles rather than flail about in the darkness of ignorance. Go no further then looking at the progressive (LOL, which they aren't) movement. |

You would have to go back to the Victorian era for a taste of the truly private (with pockets of charity for the fortunate labouring masses). |
