Socialism has turned the world upside down.

Old people get health care and an old-age pension, so their world certainly has been turned upside down. Much harder for them to die in poverty.

No, capitalism is not the same thing as socialism and cronyism and flat out bankster criminality aided and abetted by both the Bush and Obama administrations. The answer is put criminals in jail, even if they are bankers who line the pockets of politicians, institute sound money, balance our budget and keep it balance, and keep government socialism to a minimum, or at least keep socialism to what the American people are willing to pay for TODAY with current tax dollars, not the way the Democrats do it with expansive Socialism paid for by future generations. Those are the things that will lead to long term prosperity in this country.
