WHY do you worry about Socialism?

RonBo,

Thanks for your service. I too did electronics. I love ya but you have confused communism and socialism. Under socialism the more work you do (the higher your education and time served in the military) the more rewards you get. The government controls production and resource allocation. Check Websters. Our congresspeople and senators promote this confusion in the speeches they make. They have a lot to lose if things change. The military is there to protect America and our allies like Norway and Sweden, who are socialist, from attacks. Period. What you quoted is just a saying used in the military to control the men. I heard it a million times.

Ralphy , Thank you, I agree. Socialism (streets, highways, public schools, the military, social security, public grants for research and so on) is needed but best used in small doses. Medicare is a great victory for the insurance companies as it takes the old people who need more health care off their books and on to the publics. I support single payer insurance for everyone in the form of HR676. Google HR676, its a quick read. What we have now is corporate control of the people in Washington.

Merry Christmas and God Bless
