I think folks are angry with our socialist tendancies. It is an example
of 'going too far' with a good idea, like what I stated last week. Left
is fine, left is acceptable, but so far left you can't even see the
right anymore??? Being a radical, left or right, makes one go in
circles and we don't progress and grow. The US is a melting pot. It is
our differences that make our work. If socialists try to equalize
everyone, then we lose a part of ourselves, the power that we wield
based on our identity. I think it is naive to think that in a country
such as this, that socialism would ever work. There will always be the
rich, the haves, and those folks aren't going anywhere. Even in
oppressive and Communist Russia, there was a wealthy class, and usually
they could be found in government.
