" The Socialist aspects that have crept in are now threatening to permanently stifle that wealth growth." Nothing's "crept in". The housing bubble and financial collapse, which conservative estimates have costing us 13 trillion dollars, is what's stifled "wealth growth". finance.yahoo.com We haven't added any ruinously expensive social programs. The last thing added was Medicare Part B, by the Bush administration. Obamacare will SAVE us money, and hasn't even kicked in yet. If you want to start eliminating expensive programs that don't have any ROI for Americans, start with the military. Benefits that flow back to citizens are what most tax dollars SHOULD do.
