Isberry: I know what socialism is. It is government control, high taxes, and everything Hillary stands for with her mass programs

What I would offer to all on the left is to travel around the world to 3rd world countries and not only to socialized like Europe where they have the so called inclusive health care like England and now people are pulling their own teeth as they can not get in for care. But to former Soviet countries and others where dictators and thugs rule. Then think about it.
Oh yes and not stay on the beaten path and see the things that are meant for them like in Cuba where the left loves to go and talk about how great it is.
Why do so many want to leave these so called great places?

No, if the founding fathers intended for this country to be a socialist nation, then they would have written the constitution that way.I've worked long and hard to get the things,and lifestyle I have (money, property etc) to just let the government come by and take it from me, and give it to someone else. Who, for all I know is not motivated to do the same for there self. NO GD WAY! I'm also not willing to stand in line for medical treatment, weather it be non,or emergency assistance I have the knowledge to make capitalism work for me. Unlike others, who didn't have the knowledge or common sense and motivation to make it work for them. Thus they look to socialism for a "lifestyle handout".

Why not Socialism here? Because Socialism takes away all ability of people to work hard and excel. Why go to college for many years, run up a huge student loan, and sacrafice to be a doctor under Socialism? Just be a garbage collector or work in a store. The government will take most of your income to redistribute to the chronically lazy and unemployed anyway.

Should we begin to think, even before this shameful war is over, about ending our addiction to massive violence and instead using the enormous wealth of our country for human needs? That is, should we begin to speak about ending war—not just this war or that war, but war itself? Perhaps the time has come to bring an end to war, and turn the human race onto a path of health and healing.
That time will come only when the people demand it. The people of Central and South America have started demanding it. The people of North America have yet to wake up.

The answers you are getting are scaring me to death.
I don't understand why people think it's okay to accept government hand-outs. I work very hard for everything I have and I'll be damned if I will vote for anyone that thinks it's okay to take it away from me to give it to someone else. It's my money and I'll give it away however I see fit.
That being said, Hillary is going to be our next president. I just hope that the damage she does is not irreparable.

Hillary is all for socialism. She wants us all dependent on the government for everything from health care to keeping your job. Socialism doesn't work because the harder you work, the more the government takes away from you and gives it to someone that doesn't work. No incentive.

Hillary is not a socialist. She has a great deal of corporate backing.
It is nothing but silly propaganda to call Hillary a socialist. Look up the definition of socialism before posting propaganda.

Because we are Americans! We can find a better way to bring opportunity to all than to stoop to big government socialist programs that will put us in debt and stall our economy!
High taxes = slow economic growth
example, Carters stagflation
Low taxes = high growth
example, Bush 2's increase tax revenue despite low taxes!
revenues that have been higher than any year during the Clinton administration while having dramatically lower taxes!
Check this out Moody!

Hillary is not for government takeover of the Airline industry in order to improve safety and reliability - which is what a true socialist would do.
You obviously do NOT know what socialism is, or you would not be connecting it to Hillary Clinton.
