Quote:Socialism/Capitalism isn't binary, guys.

We have quite a few social programs in the mix, (that uber-capitalists wish to quash), mixed in with one of the most capitalist systems on earth. I can't think of a single person, no matter how liberal, that wants the failed systems of the Soviet Union or North Korea.

Bernie is right to look to the Scandinavian nations as an ideal. They're healthy, wealthy, and smart. Oh, and for those interested, they've also got a well-armed public. Where the right-wingers have a point is that it would be hard to implement that system in a nation as populous as the US, with so many disparate cultures. What works for Denmark probably won't work for the US, and unlike Bernie, I'm not really interested in wasting the time giving it a shot.

They also have the US providing the big guns for their national defense, and subsidizing their medical care. Maybe we should abandon NATO and insist on paying the same price for drugs as western Europe and then see how well the Scandinavian system works.

Of course had we abandoned NATO in 1960 Denmark would have the same system the Soviet Union had.
