Will, flstf, you guys are being too intellectual about it. Socialism, as a concept in american political discourse is a boogeyman. It's something that the thoughtless subset of conservatism(not all conservatives are thoughtless) tells its children about to get them to eat their vegetables. That's why the two tfpers who have called me a socialist as a pejorative are completely absent in this thread; they actually have no clue what socialism really is.
