"The purpose of socialism is to spread an ever-increasing amount of misery among an ever-increasing number of people."
Sir Winston Churchill
The truth of this has been demonstrated again and again in the intervening years since Sir Churchill made that statement.
Sadly, it seems that the Left wing "Progressives" seem to not grasp the fact that it is reality, they continue to just say: "Yes THEY did it wrong, but WE can make it work".
Socialism is a seductive idiology, after all, who can be against "fairness" and "total equality for all"?
But it fails to consider human nature in it's social equations, and the fact that people are NOT equal in their abilities,desires,and biases. Socialism can NEVER work without the most capable, and even more importantly, ruthless people rising above the mass of the population. Once that happens, the masses become the tools of the elite.
Socialism has killed more people in a shorter time than in any period of human history, but it's apologists blame capitalism for that in a weird form of transferance: blame the opposition for the sins of the state.
