> social security, medicaid and medicare aren't socialism
I'm not talking about those things. If you look at countries like China for example, they can't even be classified as a communist or a socialist nation anymore. They have private businesses and no minimum wage. Meanwhile the Mao faithful continue to live in the illusion that they are living in a perfect communist Utopia.
Look at North Korea, they quickly dropped socialism and adopted a system called juche. It's basically an over glorified monarchy since they now have what is called a Kim dynasty, plus look at Kim's size. They have nothing in common with the original ideology written by Marx himself.
In theory it is a pretty good system, but no system is flawless or completely perfect. Free Education and government provided utilities are very nice, but the cost of lively is going to go up. It doesn't do you much good to raise the standards if most of the below are already living way below it.
But hey at least you can try baiting people like your doing right now.
