quote: So you've repeatedly asserted but failed to provide any proof. Was it tyrranical when the federal government forced local schools to admit all students? Is it tyrrany to require that all children receive a basic education? Is it tyrrany to require inductry not pollut ethe air we breathe and the water we drink? This thread isn't about the pro's and cons of government power, nor was my intial response to it. So you've cited a few examples of government doing supposed good (is it a good idea to force local schools - despite a lack of Constitutional authority - to accept all students? Even the disruptive ones? I'm inclined to think not.) So what? I can cite just as many, if not more cases of government doing obvious bad (was it tyranny when the Government conducted the Tuskegee experiments?). Government is concentrated power. Socialism seeks to expand that power (for our own good, of course). The fact that it may do some good along the way towards is irrelevant. It take society further down the path toward despotism. Socailism is tyranny. That's my posistion and I'm sticking with it.

any party name (socialism) can be claimed and then abused to become tyranny. No one needs to play the "Adolph" card, but "National Socialists" is a term that, in the hands of someone like Kennedy if he were a Berliner back in '32, could have developed into an ANTI nazi party. Names mean nothing, and like etiqutte and Netiquette are generally safety nets for shitbags to hide behind.
