It's most difficult to understand a marine who believes in subversion of our great nation, allowing our system to change into socialism. What is going to be the next system you will allow and defend.
I don't understand why Conservatives are so against education, because clearly most of them are in need of one. From your post it is obvious that you don't know what "
Socialism" is. "Our system", as you put it, is not "
Socialism". And I am neither allowing this country to "
change into a Socialistic State", nor am I "
subverting" our great nation, as you so stated. Your ignorance is getting way ahead of your "
plainlogic". In fact I don't think you are logical, at all. There are programs enacted in this country since before you were born, unless you're over 82, that you have grown up with your entire life, that are "
Socialistic", in nature. The most obvious one is "
Social Security", it even has the word "
Social" in its name. Our nation is great, the greatest one in the world, but as far as you and I are concerned our great country has always had "
Social Security", so what is your point? One can only imagine in your little mind you think the ACA makes the United States a "
Socialistic State". And you'd be wrong. The definition of "
Socialism" is as follows:
"
a political and economic theory of social organization that advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a whole."
So try and digest what it is to be a "
Socialistic State". It means the Government, would have to own and regulate, "production, distribution and exchange". Our form of government is based on private ownership of "production, distribution and exchange" Our government does not own America's Industry or small businesses and never will.
Here's something to mull over, "
Socialism" says that
production, distribution and exchange is owned and regulated by the community, as a whole. Thus if the "Government" is the equivalency of the "Community", and Trump represents the Government, and he imposes tariffs, on imported goods, isn't Trump regulating "exchange" and therefore is a "
Socialist", by nature?
