 Socialism creates a world of despair. The pillars of civilization have never been created by a bureaucratic state. The United states today is just the last example of failed socialism. After starting centralizing education, medicare,.medicaid, social security and all that socialist shit, the quality of life went to the bottom.
It's not that socialism fails. It works perfectly for what is designed to do: create a land of irresponsible and weak people in need for help from birth to death enslaved under the oligarchy of politicians and bureaucrats who keep all the rights and resources for them. The beginning stage where they give free services to the population creating debts that cannot be repaid is not socialism, it's the weakening of people and the economic system on purpose.
