I think if people are so against socialism, then perhaps we need to start getting rid of it. Mind you, I am all for getting rid of it, (but I still want mine. )
Let's get rid of medicare. Earned income credit? That's as socialist as it gets. Anyone not paying full price for medical insurance, but getting a government subsidy- get rid of it. Full price for everyone.
Food stamps-gone. Medicaid- gone. Pell grants-gone. In fact, let's get rid of dependency exemptions. Everyone should pay their full share.
I'll admit it- I want medicare.
