A form of government that forces the upper class to pay for everyone's health care, everyone's house, and everyone's crack.Sure it works out well at first, but after everyone realizes that the upper class can only handle so many taxes without becoming lower class themselves socialism becomes communism.And also socialist hospitals suck, I know from experience.After all no doctor wants to bust their ass for
the mediocre salary socialized health care workers get.

An economic system in which the government controls everything and provides everyone with everything they need. In theory it works, but in practice... it fails. And here are 6 reasons why:
1. If The Government controls the economy then they control your life
2. When the government run's something, it becomes inefficient & corrupt
3. If one guy works hard, and the other is lazy they get payed the same
4. Why would a doctor got to medical school to get payed the same as a janitor at "Government Burger"
5. Socialism has failed before (USSR) and it won't work now
6. Since there is no incentive to succeed, this means it will take years for technology to advance

1. A system that is pure and all that is good, but fails to encompass the inherent flaw in mankind - namely the neocon genome.

An ornate tool of individual identity erosion; a device that defies all moral conceptions and standards. In particular, our unique qualities, work ethic and personality are key to stable notions of humanity. With the loss of any of these, our humanity is called into question, leading to the devastating possbiility of everything we know of ourselves.
And the loss of self, courtesy of socialism, allowed for the exploitation of citizens in the inept utopia of 1984.
