My great granfather was good friends with and an accountant for a communist leader in Czechoslovakia. I am guessing that when his daughter (my grandmother) moved here she adopted socialism because communism had an awful spin to it in America.

What's wrong with joining it? No chance anything will happen due to lack of popularity anyways...

Not in MA though, its fairly accepted here. I'm next door to Cambridge so it a little more in my face. And if you harvard kids are reading this; No. I will not "rethink" columbus day.

We received one of the largest federal grants to do something revolutionary with public transit and we absolutly ****ed the pouch on that one. Now we have shifting highway exits, and giant holes in the ground that murder people.

Socialist prevelence here has sent countless people to jail on corruption charges. I'm no frontier republican, but big government is rife with corruption. In fact...

Corruption: Government:iabetes: Obesity.

LOL. You sound like my dad. Mass may be more left-wing than a lot of states but it's still far from socialist.

I can't believe I laughed that hard at my own ****up. Aces gentleman, aces.

And btw, Willfred Brimley pronounces it Di-a-be-tis.

Also, you left home my friend. It sucks royal ass here with Devy P on Beacon Hill. Looks like we're in for another 12 years of the Republican lockdown.

Edit: We have socialized medicine and *** marriage. What other state can say that?

Fascism isn't much worse than gang monarchy (aka what you propose).

If you want to declare socialism as the best than fine. Don't even try to tell me that socialists respect individual rights.

Political discussions lack when I don't get to hear the philosophy behind the view so if you are going to respond with criticism then please post why you think private property rights should not be respected.
