Why is it that Americans can't understand socialism? Oh that's right, 70yrs of right wing propaganda.No I am not inclined to let you rewrite my posts. Capitalism benefits everyone to a degree but the benefits of capitalism will accrue more to those that innovate, achieve , take good decisions and are not risk averse than they will to others. This is a problem for those that see their self worth in terms of social status and measure their social status in terms of how much others have more than themselves. As a measure of fulfilling of basic needs, Capitalism is a unmitigated success story raising entire populations out of crippling destitution. Socialism is an unmitigated failure returning those that have risen out of crippling destitution back to that state.
