Re: socialism doesn't work
Socialism doesn't work?? What about the United States since Roosevelt? Worked pretty damn good for most of that time. Most of the ways we operate here were planks in Eugene V. Debs' platform - the Socialist Party platform - back in the 1920's!

Re: so are the evos here socialists???
Socialism means beaurocrats have the ultimate power on how business is done. This in turn often leads to excessive corruption.
And 2005 US capitalism means you have clerks at an insurance company deciding when you're "well." But, nah, the medical biz doesn't have any corruption.....
