Is the fear of socialism a fear that the government is going to take your money? Over half of your federal taxes go toward war. Billions of dollars for a bomber, but don't you dare give a dollar towards food for another poor person.

the fear of socialism is based on a knowledge of history.

Only fools expect things to go differently, each time the same thing is done.

the rest of the civilised world isn't doing anything like the socialism Bernie puts forward. Cuba is his golden standard. Small areas of socialised costs are normal.

Norway is his golden standard and Norway is great.
