Your way won't work, that's why we don't want it. Socialism was tried from 1917 in Russia until Pres Reagan forced the collapse of the USSR. The result was demoralized drunkards. The Russian gov had to buy wheat from the US in order to feed their people, or they would've starved to death. What the Soviet Union had was neither communism nor socialism. It was an authoritarian oligarchy. And I certainly don't want that. You need to first start by asking what I want......and then figuring out how much you are willing to compromise. That's how successful relationships work.
