Is Socialism the only way to save our Society?
Democratic socialism may be the only way for America to cope with the vanity of money markets and the destructive tendencies of the private healthcare system.

Democratic socialism is necessary!
Our capitalism is such a superficial front. The government has their hands so deep in the pockets of large corporations and visa versa that i couldn't fathom how people can say this is a free economy. .
Democratic socialism provides citizens basic rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
-- Posted By Robpea on September 9, 2007Socialism does not have to be synonymous with fascism or the taking away of an individuals rights. By guaranteeing free healthcare and better wages for low-income persons, a democratic socialist society more efficiently provides for all citizens.
Democratic socialism, national socialist socialism, communitarian socialism, fabian socialism, marxist socialism, the ideology by any name is an experiental failure because it MUST curtail FREEDOM to be enterprising and to keep the fruit of labor.
Socialism is fascism; EVERYTHING should be privatized!
Socialism is irrationality as pure capitalism is to logic
-- Posted By Hacbarton on September 10, 2007Pure capitalism works because it follows basic rules of logic. Socialism does not work because it requires humanity to act a certain way. Humans are irrational beings. However, some things should remain in government control, like education.
Government regulation of business and enterprise destroys the free market economy.
-- Posted By Robpea on September 9, 2007By trying to individually appease all the have-nots of a given society, socialism destroys motivation for hardwork. And because health care is so intimately tied to our economy, socializing it will lead to the fall of the American markets.
Free health care that dictates how many doctors my practice in an area, as some are proposing, is as foolish as free legal care that dictates how many lawyers may practice law in an area. Socialism is an ideology of control, failure and regression.

I was born 7 lbs. 11 ounces. Back then they just rounded up, rather than taking it out to a decimal point. So who knows- maybe I actually weighed 7 lbs. 10.6 ounces.
