A fancy word for Communism.

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.

Contrary to belief socialism is not communism, but close to it. It is the step right before communism.
Socialism is the distrobution of the money made throughout the country. Scince equality is given no matter the circumstances there is no incentive to work, and in a socilialist society the amount of work done doesn't effect your pay it is the same(but don't worry you are giving people equal opportunities).

Bed-wetting liberal 1: I need money and I have no job.
Bed-wetting liberal 2: I know, to bad we live in capatlist society rather than having things given to us like in socialism.
