    I find is disturbing for Americans to not understand what socialism is.

    There is a reason why socialism was refused in every country it was implemented. Including my own.

    Country with social politics is not socialist. And yes I agree in USA you have almost no social rights which is obviously bad for people. For example USA is one of two countries to poor for paid maternity or paternity leave, which is crazy.

      In my city there is usually no less than 2 local seats that run unopposed. 3rd party candidates never make an attempt to grab them, nor do they try to swipe the nominations in the primaries of the big two parties. It’s a shame.
