The labels are pointless...
Why keep score at a football game, who cares who wins?
Communism and Socialism just breed the same useless, going nowhere, "existing" lives. No motive for self-improvement, innovation is replaced with complacency. The thought that it's somehow "primitive" to seek reward for your efforts is stupid. It's the nature of this planet that the strong survive, yet the "enlightened" wish to dismiss this as not applying to the human race. After all we're social animals, right? Wrong, it just means we kill in groups.
The end result of the welfare "experiment" is gettos that span entire cities (that are financially collapsing, BTW), crime at unheard of levels, poverty class the largest it's ever been. All this with the middle and especially the upper class paying even higher percentages of the taxes. The only difference between slavery on a plantation and slavery in the getto is the view. (not to mention something actually got done on the plantation)
Free enterprise means your free to either fail or not, but most importantly your free. I see the government controlling any portion of my life against my will as shackels and any true American will oppose this.
Some people are pussies and can't handle free will.
