Reply #10: I said socialist. [View All]

Everything for the greater good. Overpopulation is a problem for society. The greater good demands that people reproduce only to replace themselves. Recycling is a major good for society. Therefore, it is mandatory.

The greater good. Nobody is superior to anyone else. If your actions harm society, then your actions are prohibited. If you are one of the Master class, then you must be reduced in status to be the same as everyone else.

All are equal, absolutely. Privilege is not socialism. Why should one person, or a group of people, be able to exert their will on the society at large? That is not socialism.

I live in this society, though, so I behave as a member of this society. We do not have socialism here, so I embrace any measures which improve the status of the members of society. Clearly, this bill helps some people who have long needed help. So I support it. It is not what I would wish to have, which is cradle-to-grave health care paid for with tax dollars, under an extremely progressive tax system designed to minimize the difference between the "master" class and the least capable person in the society.

I will not get what I want, so I want what is possible. This was possible. More was not, at this time.
