Which could just mean we're in the aftermath of a good (non-Socialist) economy --- but Socialism cannot end up being a good economy.
Many of the people getting government handouts now are actually working full-time --- making $5.15 an hour but with all the housing subsidies, food stamps, WIC, Medicaid and so on, they seem to be doing very very well --- but what happens if any of the handouts has to be cut back or they lose that minimum wage job? The difference of just a couple thousand dollars a year could do them in quickly.
That has already been proved to be an oxymoron.
Socialism leads to a destitute economy, however in some countries, the benefits of socialism outweighs the benefits of a free economy.
It would be a tough statement to make however without the generosity of the USA and our free economy as a part of the plan.
Go figure....
