Private ownership used to imply capitalism. But now liberal socialists have realized that they are far too dumb to own and manage businesses. Instead they leave ownership in private hands and seek to control businesses somewhat with taxes and regulation. With continued hard work conservatives will teach liberals they they are also far too dumb to control businesses with taxes and regulations.
"Liberal socialists" *leave* ownership in *private hands* and seek to control business *somewhat* with *taxes* and *regulation*.
I don't think that you understand the basic economic models. What you just described there is America. Period. Not "Liberal socialist" America. Just America.
idiotic as usual! The subject was not America. It was capitalism and socialism in America.
Norman Thomas quotes:
The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of 'liberalism' they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.
This was precisely the tactic of “infiltration” advocated by Lenin and Stalin.[3] As Communist International General Secretary Georgi Dimitroff told the Seventh World Congress of the Comintern in 1935:
"Comrades, you remember the ancient tale of the capture of Troy. Troy was inaccessible to the armies attacking her, thanks to her impregnable walls. And the attacking army, after suffering many sacrifices, was unable to achieve victory until, with the aid of the famous Trojan horse, it managed to penetrate to the very heart of the enemy’s camp."[4]

Buckley endorsed Chambers’ analysis of modern liberalism as a watered-down version of Communist ideology. The New Deal, Chambers insists, is not liberal democratic but “revolutionary” in its nature and intentions, seeking “a basic change in the social and, above all, the power relationships within the nation.”
