The U.S. is selective socialism and that is very much socialism at its very core. Look at all the programs... At the same time look at the stigma associated with being a part of most of those programs. It allows for some complex diversification on the grand scheme of control that a country can implement on its own people. We scoff at fully socialist countries the same way we do at communist etc.. yet, we are very much a socialist country but we like to claim we are not because of bravado and lies that have been programmed into us that all point ot us being "free" because of markets..
I fucking laugh out loud to this.
It is very easy to see, especially now after the repeal of NN(NN should not even have been a question to begin with...that is another story to tell)that corporations who rule the government(another example is how lobbying was currently called out..Ofumbles time in office)are what?
