Are the US becoming a socialist nation, and would that be so terrible?

Keeping in mind the more popular socialist examples are extreme....

Every socialist Country does have a hierchy sitting atop the pile, witness the old Soviet Union. So yes, I am all for Socialism as long as I can have my Dacha on the Volga.

She works at an establishment that caters to men's sexual fantasies, (ie, she's a Hooker).

She is hot looking, sucks 5 dicks a day, does 4 Greeks, and 5 missionaries. The House makes about $3000 off of her days work.

Now, the gal in the next room isn't near as hot, does't do Greek, and only manages to make the House about $800 a day.

But, at the end of the day, they both handed $1000 by the "manager" for their days work.

Sound fair? Well, that's Socialism.

Which lives by the same creed as Communism. "From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs".

Further, we are being brainwashed to desire government control more and more every day.

"Socialists perform amazing miracles. They steal hundreds of fresh loaves and fishes, and redistribute but a few moldy crusts and rotten heads. Their miracle of scarcity is genuine, you see, and the socialists have no idea how they achieve this miracle. It baffles them. It angers them. It outrages them. Yet, it does not discourage them." - Sipos

Socialism kind of reminds me of the Zoo. Anyone ever been to a Zoo? Notice the Lions, well equipped habitats beautiful to look at, safe haven for the Lions, They receive medical attention, they're being fed on a schedule. Nothing they should want right? Wrong, they don't want to be fed. They want to hunt.

Fag bashing accusations? Really? Is that the best you've got?

You are a disgrace to whatever your cause supposedly is.

I stand by my point that you are a closeted homosexual that is over-compensating with fag-bashing posts.

Most of your posts throw in gratuitous gay slurs that are completely unrelated to the thread topic.

You should just come out of the closet and accept who you are, BlowRider69. We won't judge.
