@SocialistStan @QasimRashid Have you ever lived in a "socialist" state?

@QasimRashid Government IS the problem. When, in the millennia of human existence, apart from a few periods of exception, has government performed well for its people? Government, especially federal government is a necessary evil and must be kept as small as possible. But sure, give your rights and powers away to the people who tell you "nice" things and then turn around and fleece you.
