re: Now think about how that applies to a socialism. The wealth and power will be under strict government control, and those dictating the rules will end up becoming the greedy ones who are unlikely to share.

Do you really think that's true of the more socialistic countries of the EU? I would say those in power "share" more than the people in power share in this country. They have a flatter wage scale, for instance.

Not correct. The most greedy are the libs.
New research data out proves that point.

Ted, > People who have wealth and power tend to be greedy and unlikely to share.

Now think about how that applies to a socialism. The wealth and power will be under strict government control, and those dictating the rules will end up becoming the greedy ones who are unlikely to share.


That's not at all likely to happen. That's your fear that's been exaggerated by your party leaders. Even in Sweden, Norway and Germany, there are wealthy people......and yet, all three countries combine some socialism with capitalism.
