Well, seems Socialism generally sounds pretty good on paper, but those type regimes never trust the people. They can't afford to have an armed populace. Sheep don't bite. Govt is by the people or it rules the people. When govt fears the populace, you have freedom. When the populace fears the govt, you have tyranny.
Color me skeptical. There's always a price to pay for free stuff. You can't see the Wizard of OZ behind the curtain. Don't think that's an accident do ya?
Capitalism has its warts, but beats whatever is number two. Too bad the USA is drifting that way. It's coming here soon enough without me going there. And, I have some great Australian friends.

The US is drfiting the same way? fella, the US constitution fell in about 24 hours like everyone elses when non elected officials told you you all had to go indoors for covid. Your country is now a patchwork of work/vax mandates like everyone elses. You have lost free speech, cant say the N word anymore, and your cops incarcerate people 5x more often than any other country in the world.
Australia just had a protest with 500,000 people,(population % wise that would be like 7 million americans) Europe is convoying across 20 countries to protest, Canada has the largest blockade in western history going, and you yanks more worried about Biden pooping his pants with the Pope.
