Are you old enough to remember the fall of of the Soviet Union from the view of an adult who lived with the threat of global thermo-nuclear war on a daily basis?
Do you remember the fall of the BerlinWall after years of people dieing just for the chance to get across to the free side?
Are you old enough to remember the disaster that was left by Jimmy Carter? An economy that was far worse than what we are seeing today.
Socialism has failed to improve the living standards everywhere that it has been tried.
You really do need to learn abouthistory a little more before you comment on it.
