It would be great if we could have free health care, liveable SS pensions and reasonable insurance rates but we can't. And for the very same reasons, socialism can never work. There is always going to be a significant percentage of the population here that are sociopaths, predators and parasites. The closest socialism ever came to working was in like Sweden prior to the flood of Third World, non-Christian free-loaders that crashed the system and poisoned society with crime and blight.
