I have read that the religious among the Pilgrims WERE socialist, sort of, at first, and it damn near doomed their colony, and that it was only after they abandoned socialist-type thinking that they prospered. You are correct sir! If the Indians had not assisted the pilgrims they would have starved.
The first time socialism was tried in North America it did not work. It still does not work!
