Why socialism is such a bad word in the mouth of every American? - Matt - 10-12-2012 01:16 PM
I think you need to learn once and for all that Socialism = Western/European-style free-market social-democracy, NOT Soviet-style communism

European-style free-market social-democracy is not capitalism, and is unwelcome here.

after being born in a country where there was communism, I rather not see it come here, and I do see it's in the beginning stages.

And downloading kiddie porn from the internet isn't the same as raping and killing a 5 year old.. but neither one is acceptable.

Because the rich control the propaganda that is fed to us every day and they get rich off of capitalism. A socialist economy would be detrimental to them, so they make us associate the word with Soviet Russia.

It is highly inneficient, impedes and discourages individuals from being able to make the most of themselves, and eventually leads to forced labor and lack of freedom. A Man should be FREE to get rich if he can earn it.
