I've failed to read the articles on the 50th anniversary of the War on Poverty, but wonder if the current debate on economic equality has more people than common expressing some warm feelings towards what some would call socialism.
Depends on how we define socialism, though.
I, myself, have two thoughts coming to me on this topic. One, there is an element of greed running through much of capitalism. There is also a tendency, in capitalism, to make decisions based on making money, ofttimes with disregard to the effects on people. However good capitalism might be, if we are to be honest and objective, we should realize and acknowledge the negatives of capitalism.
My second thought is . . .
I look at the clock and decide my second thought will have to wait. 'Tis bedtime.
