America is neither a communist or nor a socialist country and to keep pretending someone is trying to make it so is just a scare tactic of the right.
Not even the right, Ravi...the lunatic fringe of the right.
I think we can all agree that taxation is needed to maintain overall harmony for a country. Any form of taxation for the benefit of society is socialistic by definition.
By the definition of the lunatic fringe which doesn't understand the meaning of the word socialism, really.
We pander to these notwits when we use the word socialism incorrectly.
No society has a government of any type which costs nothing, so calling taxation socistist is preposterous.
It'd be an interesting experiment to do away with all taxation and spending for a year and see what becomes of our country.
A whole lot of former libertopians would be clamoring for more socialism, is what would happen.
