One question destroys your argument entirely. Who do republicans pay for their wars, tax cuts, and other spending priorities when they always cut taxes and never raise them? Your statements about socialism don't consider the many economies that are growing faster than our or have a higher GDP per capita than ours. You also can't explain how capitalism created a health care system that is so poorly run that the US ranks #43 in the world. Other countries with far more socialism have far higher life expectancies. Norway and Sweden have higher GDPs per capita than the US but in your world socialism is only defined by the most extreme examples. Since there hasn't been one tax cutting republican president who's lowered the deficit by even one penny you have nothing.
