Isn't socialism along the line of communism? To me they r all the same, BAD, and they're not supposed to be here.
Socialism is very much alive in this country, and unfortunately growing!
From what I've seen, everything is changing....
Actually no. They are very different, at least if we are talking classic Socialism.
In fact classic socialism might well be favored by most in America, and even more surely part of what it claims to do is favored by the vast majority of Americans. (Claims and does are different things).
Classic Socialism is just that the government controls Heavy Industry. That is it. The Government does the things that are huge. Things like water and power, building bridges and Roads. What would get added in is things like car manufacturing.
There is NOTHING about free medical care or welfare in classic socialism. And there is nothing opposed to capitalism for the rest of the economy.
Does it work as claimed? Not as I see it. The same problems as here just magnified and government inefficiency added to Heavy industry. And surprise, ever extending what is heavy industry. And as I see little way to avoid those problems in practice I'm not a proponent of Socialism.
