I haven’t read it yet, but your words made me think of a quote from I don’t remember who said it but it was something to this effect, “ socialism never took hold because America was too (I’ll use the word good) a place. Got to be a better word.
So naturally they’ve got to change that.
That is exactly my thoughts on it.
They are socialist.
Socialism has not worked in the U.S. because the U.S. system has people basically satisfied.
U.S. must become socialist so conditions get bad enough so that more people will want to become socialist to adress the resulting undesirable conditions.
You may have put it better than I did but your comments are exactly the same take I have on it.
