Hitler, the head of the national socialist party done great things in small moves right? Took him six years to start a world war.

My point is that its not a big move.

Than your point is incorrect.

Even in countries we would call socialist, you don't have 100% of the economy under the governments control. Obama is proposing changes in terms of new government spending and regulation that would add at least 5% and perhaps a much greater amount of our economy to be under the governments control. 5% is a huge step. Its like waging five Iraq wars at once.

If health care is put under the governments control than the total is over 20%.
