America is already so called socialist. The most used form of healthcare is Medicare and is also the most efficient or of all the forms in America, you give billions to banks, industry, agriculture and the defence contractors, tax breaks for the rich. Billions of dollars to Israel. The rich are making bank off of "socialism" while telling the rest of you it's bad. The future is now old man and you are going to be on the wrong side of history. If free market capitalism is so great and America is the shining example of that why is America lagging behind almost all other developed countries except for military spending, prison populations and mass shootings?

You described fascism, which has been in place since the early 20th century.
