George doesn't seem to get that the one of the major reasons for the success
of the U.S. is the fact that we have such low taxes compared to other
countries.

Believe it or not, but it's entirely possible that this line of
thinking will breed an entire new generation of communists...

It is my opinion that a civilized society should look after the basic
needs all of its members, including the weak/poor/sick etc.
By basic needs I mean food, water, education, housing, medical help,
energy etc.
Yes, there will always be people who will take advantage of such a
system, but does this fact outweigh the benefits for many others?
