Calling “right wingers” “Nazis” is just plain ignorant.

Seriously, you need to read “Road to Serfdom” (Hayek).
It was written about England in the mid 40’s as a warning to England not to embark on “central planning”.

Well it strongly depends where you live. For example calling the NSDAP (even it contains the word socialist) anything than a far right wing party in Europe would end in people calling you stupid because it “is/has been” a far right wing party. The american and european view of what is called “left” and “right” differ on a large front in generall. you can not comapare the US and Europe on this. Just too different. btw. of course “only” because the NSDAP would be called a far right wing party in Europe does not make current right wingers same as Nazis. Same could be said for the example about Obama and the “left” or of course the “right” in the US. there will be allways some similarities with some of the politics the Nazis had too in every political fraction. that´s why i said as long as someone doesn´t start to round up people it´s unfair to call them Nazis only because some politics would have may fitted in the political program of the NSDAP too.
