  • This is an incredibly well written response and I apologize in advance if my response comes across as overly cynical or perhaps dismissive.

    My main concern with the complete abolition of private property is that unfortunately I don’t have enough trust in most governments to fairly distribute resources. Therefore I think a mixed market economy with a strong social welfare system is the most feasible method. Through this, we can gradually work towards socialist principles without completely alienating a large section of the populace. I don’t think a direct transition would be sustainable in the long term unfortunately.

    When Social Security and the New Deal programs were introduced, they were called socialism

    When the voting age was lowered to 18, it was called socialism

    When the FMLA was passed, it was called socialism.

    It’s literally just a word that Republicans who don’t want to support our communities use instead of just flat out admitting that they’re anti human
