Wrong. The Scandinavian countries all declared that they are not Socialist. Want to dispute it with them? They do not control production and do not make everything equal. True socialism is in the countries I pointed out. many more in Africa and South America as well. Not doing well are they?

And Sweden, Norway, etc. control their population and support the citizens they have. To live there you must have assets and a job. U.S. allows the largest immigration of all without those stipulations.

I will agree there are certain social programs in many countries, but that does not make us or them Socialistic. And for you to say communism is non existent is to ignore a country of 1.5 billion people.

If you think it works so well, you have many places to choose from. Go at it.

And finally not hung up on communism. It is what it is. Don't try to redefine it. It is defined and it doesn't work. Our system isn't perfect, but it allows individual achievement. No guarantees. But the opportunities are there. 3 things defined us, Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness. Still true today. If that doesn't work for you, many other places to live and enjoy.
