You believe that Government ownership and/or control of everything is good for the country? You cite European countries as the example of that position? Yet the fact that those countries are trending downward provides no concern?
Why must the USofA be like Europe?? The major problem with you view, socialism counterbalances capitalism, is that socialism also counterbalances liberty. That is most definately not a good thing!!
If so desire to live under the auspices of socialism perhaps you would be better served to choose a residence where such is already the manner of operation.
