Socialism and Communism, respectively, has failed in history repeatedly. We shouldn't think that we will be any different if we go those routes.

Socialism is a bunch of things, not a single thing. Public school are socialist, public roads are socialist, parks and libraries are socialist, armies are socialist.

Socialism has failed at some things, and been very successful at others. Human society couldn't function, as we know it, without socialism.
