 WaPo Calls to Turn America Into a Socialist Country
by Brian McNicoll on March 7, 2018
 

Finally, the Washington Post has done it. It has called for turning America into a socialist country.

In a piece that appeared on the Post’s website Tuesday, Elizabeth Bruenig, a columnist for the Post, said it’s “time to give socialism a try.”

Her argument seems to be that capitalism is not working for liberals and that to save liberalism, the left must pursue something more. Socialism is that something more.

This is another “the reason why socialism hasn’t worked yet is that the right people were not in charge” article

Sinice as far back as I remember, every once a while these spring up.  But she is right in that socialism would give the left total control over the rest of the population.
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.
