That said, the US does suffer from its incessant drive towards capitalism, and could certainly use a few socialist ideas, something that would benefit the people, instead of the money makers.

Capitalism depends on growth to survive, and that can be a real trap.
Ben, your canadian side is showing.:shrug:

As winewood stated, the US has been driving toward socialism, and AWAY from Capitalism for a long time. Much to our detriment.

Socialism is merely a way for those less able to leech off of those more able, and then feel morally superior about it. The worst thing about it, is that the so-called "money-makers" sanction their victimhood by supporting such a philosophy (witness most senate democrats - nearly all millionaires or better).

advocating socialism is morally tantamount to advocating armed robbery.
