People do not realize you can have a communism without a dictator.

Socialism is a great thing if used right. In true socialism everyone is equal. Cuba is actully quite nice and would be a hell of a lot better if it could trade with people its when you get a dictator that it is bad becaues he has full power and it gos to his head. Socialism can be a good thing but people are to stupid to use it properly.

@syzygy502 Wrong. The constitution requires government involvement. It requires MINIMUM government involvement. Socialism is the abolishment of all private property. The government controls everything. There is no private property, or rights.
Literally, it is 1984.
Quite frankly, if you ask our President, he would say 1984 is something from his wet dreams.
This guy is wrong. Horribly wrong.

@2:09,
Socialism is when the government owns or tries to gradually own all property. Communism is a type of socialism where the government tries to own all private property ostensibly for the purposes of workers' material equality with everyone else.
When the government tries to gradually own property for the ostensible purpose of keeping one national origin materially superior other national origins, it is called "National Socialism", or Nazism.

@2:01,
At the federal level, we're increasingly "half"-capitalist. At the individual state level, whether we've become more or less socialist depends on your perspective. For someone who was born a slave in 1860, the state is much more free market than in the past. For someone who is, say, a physician, the state is much more socialist than it was in the past with the government being much more involved.

The U.S. is socialist....787 Billion dollars given to corporations through TARP...and twice as much dolled out in 'loans' through the FED.

@JoshuaCromarty Is your mind fucked? Do everyone a favor and move to Cuba, or better yet North Korea...

@mysticresistence anarchy, not capitalism.
People need to realize that socialism is not a system where the government takes over everything. It's just where the government is involved.

@craftbrosify Or how about Denmark, a country that has been run by socialists for about forty years, and they have LOWER unemployment and LOWER poverty than we do in the US.
Want to see Capitalism? Just look at Somalia: no regulation, no Obama, no rules, and as a result it's a PARADISE...ohh...wait... :)
