Yaeh, yeah, yeah, Take two midol and mail me $5.00. I live in Tennessee, get my electricity from TVA, which after expenses has annually turns in very large profits back into the Federal coffers. Sometimes a socialist policy works without anybody being a "communist". I kind of like the USDA inspection of the sausage I had for breakfast. That policy cost government money and does not directly return money to government and greatly impinged the rights of private enterprise to sell the cheapest product at the highest profit margin for the the entrepreneur. Totally socialist, but necessary to keep business regulated for the good of the masses, avoiding some of the Caveat Emptor in the market place. I am enjoying my military pension and health care for standing guard during the cold war, thank you very much. Big difference between communism and socialism. Socialism has been alive and sometimes an effective tool in this country since the first roads, public schools and other things contrary to private profit for common ascribed good in this country, clean back to the 1700s. The sky ain't falling, just partly cloudy. Relax. Have a bran muffin.![]()
Is there anything you don't think should be run by government?
