Socialism?

Socialism?  What's in a name? Isn't VA medical coverage "socialistic" health care? Isn't social security "socialistic" security? Isn't social services "socialistic" services? Anytime a right-winger fears that an avaricious private sector health conglomerate might be replaced with a government program that doesn't discriminate against the poor or people with chronic health problems, he or she froths at the mouth and spews out the infamous word "SOCIALISM." It would be just as absurd to call these reactionaries sociopaths--although I might not be that far off the mark, eh?

I worry about all the people who work in the insurance industry. What happens when the government remake the system and they all go on unemployment? Instant poor people, should have seen it. This is the anniversary of the starvation of the farmers, so why not starve the insurance workers
