Socialism has NEVER worked, Marianne. It is based on envy and perverted Robin Hood Philosophy. Well regulated Capitalism is good for all.

Whose morality? That is the rub. I want an aspirational society and you want a dependent society.

The idea society is above the individual is the most blasphemous.

This probably sounds simplistic, but I believe a lack of spirituality (or higher consciousness) is at the core of that kind of thinking.
