Yep. The concept of 'socialism' in the States gets an overly bad rap I believe. I'll take a system that balances the needs of the many vs the needs of the few. The ultra rich have set themselves up nicely to control the narrative, reap all the benefits and now easily pit us against each other. All the while distracting us from the fact that most folks share the same struggles, stagnant wages, unaffordable housing, and a system designed to keep wealth flowing upward.

The vast majority of us here discussing this are easily in the top 5% of earners, so it's easy to forget and not see the struggles of others. Moving more toward a semblance of social democracy vs corporate feudalism wouldn't be the worst thing in my book.
