What I've learned from this thread....Americans have a very skewed perception of what constitutes socialism and what constitutes capitalism from the rest of the world. No lie.

Free market capitalism has literally freed the world from it's chains of death and curruption and oppression. Life expectancy in 1800 trended somewhere around 40 in the RICHEST countries of the world. It's 20 years higher in the POOREST countries right now. Within 200 years. WHAT A CHANGE! Free markets have provided with us with everything a currently living sane person would acknowledge as a privilege of time and circumstance.
