I hear all this talk about socialism. One has to ask how they define it and where they get their idea behind it. Because if that word is used at all, it is usually misused and taken the wrong way. If all we have to work with are two paradigms, so to speak, then how is it possible to move forward when the only thing(s) you hear are the same things over and over again... the same rhetoric for the last 60 years. I know folks who work 8-12 hours a day and are broke most of the time with no insurance and very little rest. And the only thing heard is you gotta pick yourself up, get two jobs horseshit. I guess the timing isn't going to be right until we get some innovative and idealistic people running the government instead of the corporate world, oil, and war in its constancy.
