Totally agree.
The attempt at sleight of hand is typical democrat.
As you point out, there are some societal activities generally accepted as necessary (or preferable) that are communal in nature.
Like building the interstate road system or supporting the military, fire departments and law enforcement.
But Elizabeth Warren and other socialists intentionally conflate the necessary and the unnecessary in a transparent attempt to justify pursuit of their leftist agendas.
They use examples of activities where social cooperation is accepted as necessary to justify their preference to expand socialism to areas and activities where it is not necessary.
Yes, but don't leave Bush and Cheney out of this. Their "genius" was to realize that if the crony capitalists and socialists made common cause, they, Bush and Cheney, could pursue their agenda to invade Iraq and clean up the middle east, and the socialists and crony capitalists could clean up financially. It was that mach made in hell that has produced the rapid buildup of DC Beltway consultants, the eternal construction around Tyson's corner, and the broadening and deepening of the swamp.
