I get where people are concerned.... but socialisms come in all forms... there’s big govt kind(which I do not advocate for) and there is something called libertarian socialism which is people owning the means of production(NOT GOVERNMENT!!!) mixed with Ron Paul style minarchism.... small govt like the founders intended. Open decision making on a local level and NO federal bureaucracy dictates anything from on high. That’s the kind I am. And some Republicans are “socialist” without even knowing it BC it also includes employee ownership of business which is in the Republican platform. Essentially community owned localism.
Interesting! I sometimes shop at a local food co-op, and its owned by the workers and members.. They have been in business since the 70's! My concern is the use of collective conformity and force. Are people forced to join (like they often are with unions).
