Four in 10 Americans Embrace Some Form of Socialism

Scary times to think that 40 percent of Americans like socialism.
Unfortunately, there are just a lot of un-educated (in politics; not in the broad sense) people out there who have been propagandized by the Left non-stop for the last fifteen years or so that everything good in life is socialism. I've had Leftists try to claim this at me for ages.
Roads? Those are socialism.
Fire departments? Socialism.
Police departments? Those are socialism so long as they're not shooting unarmed Black kids for no reason, then they're unbridled capitalism.
Electricity? Socialism.
The internet? Socialism.
Cold beer? Socialism.
Bacon? Yep, that's socialism, too.
It's all BS, of course, but that whole "argument" got a big boost from Barry "you didn't build that" Obama, and it has stuck with a lot of people who just don't know better. If they were made to see that in actuality, Venezuela is socialism, Cuba (the
real Cuba) is socialism, North Korea is socialism, they would change their tune very quickly indeed.
