We will all be celebrating the success of the five year plan, from our collectivized housing, by the light of a candle ,while wearing our two left shoes...

However we will have plenty of rotten potatoes to eat and vodka to drink

I also love all the talk about roads, schools, and the military being socialist institutions. Gee, I guess they did not exist until the Paris Commune, right? Government does have a role to protect the borders and to enable commerce, but not to wipe out capital and not to do social engineering which does not work.
No one is vilifying capitolism so far in this thread.
I said this country has allways been a mix of socialism and capitolism.
And that we were pushed to far into the capitolism side, and we suffer for it.

I have no idea what the paris commune is.
But I dont think you understand what a social program iss.

Can you explain how you think schools, roads, military, etc.. are not social programs ?
