I’m trying to think a country where socialism has ushered in an era of wealth and opportunity for the common people in just a single generation.
Russia?
Cuba?
Venezuela?
Still thinking ...
"It'll work this time!"
A problem with socialism is that all the people cheerleading for it envision themselves as part of the ruling apparatchik. Nobody ever says, "You guys run things from behind a desk. I'll go work in the coal mines! Yay socialism!"
