Thank you very much indeed for proving my point so eloquently.


Thanks for being so wrong. A quick Google will find this in the
Merriam-Webster online dictionary:

socialism
1 : any of various economic and political theories advocating collective or governmental

administration of the means of production and distribution of goods


Oh, one point where we actually agree on. I am surprised.

And that makes most of the high Democrat US leaders socialists
(i.e. believers in Socialism). FOR EXAMPLE: most of them are shown in
Youtube videos ... WHICH THEY HAVE NOT DISAVOWED ... advocating "single
payer" health care, which is a euphemism for goverment controlled health
care.


Then I suppose you also object to government controlled retirement
funding, government controlled road building and maintenance, government
controlled police and military, etc?

This has nothing to do with socialism. For 8 years I lived less than 2
miles from the Berlin Wall. I visited East Berlin frequently, I had
friends suffering in the real existing socialism, I still have friends
who grew up under those conditions. Don't you dare telling me that
social care has anything to do with socialism.

It is nothing but an obvious ploy by FOX and the ultra right propaganda
to confuse social and socialist until people are so scared that they
don't know the difference any more. As I said befo
"If the meaning of a scare word doesn't fit your purpose then just
change the meaning of that word and repeat it over and over until people
actually start believing it."
And it obviously worked very well on you.

As far as public health and social care is concerned: Don't you think
it's time for the USA to advance into the 20th century? All other
western countries have reached the 21th century already after all.

Obama clearly believes in government ownership of "means of production"
since he owns a big hunk of General Motors (though not total ownership.)


Then I suppose the board of directors of General Motors must be ultra
socialist. Because if memory serves me right it was them who went to
Washington several times and begged the government on their knees to
take that big hunk of their company.

How many "hangers on" do you guys have in those "Western countries"? Here in
the USA we have experts at cheating the government out of money. They are so
good at it, that the government has made it nearly inpossible to get a dime
from them, to the point where the only people wo know how to cheat the
system are those who are so smart and able that they could do really good on
their own, in business, but they have specialized in cheating the welfare
system....And, the poor souls who really need sime help can't even begin to
get any money.....
