Default Re: Hillary: Replace \"on your own\" society with \"shared responsibility

I find the attitude of most of the posters here shocking and ridiculous. By saying that we have to move to a direction where governement has a bigger role doesn't mean absolutely at all the same thing as socialism. The logic of some of these so called expert posters here is horrendous. The US don't have a real left wing at all. I laught at your remarks that left-wing Democrats are closet socialists. You simply have no idea what you're talking about. If you visited Europe once you would probably say that they are all socialist countries.

I can understand the logic behind "state is the mother of all problems" even though I don't agree with it but these posts that claim that the US has a danger of sliding into socialism are completely retarded. A move to the "left" in a country like the US means that in the global scale the US is still one of the most "right-wing" countries in the world. You guys lack so much perspective. But I guess it's good propaganda to paint all non-neoliberalists as socialists and communists. It's just not really intellectual.
