Correct: there is no point in pushing for socialism, much less communism. It has never worked and it’ll never work. It will only lead to disaster, as usual.

But this has nothing to do with social programs and business regulation. That’s not communism, just capitalism done competently.

The idea that socialism means social programs is a lie pushed by people such as Bernie Sanders as part of their intentionally-deceptive equivocation between socialism democracy (Sweden) and democratic socialism (Cuba).

I wrote a blog entry specifically on this rhetorical trick:

//Call it democracy, or call it democratic socialism, but there must be a better distribution of wealth within this country for all God's children.//

-MLK

We make a mistake when we assume that there is nothing for white people on this day. MLK saw our poverty.

White families have more in common with the black family down the street than they do with the Hiltons or the Trumps. Remember that.
