Socialism is about a hell of a lot more than JUST nationalizing industrys.

Just what do you claim social security is ?

Straw man argument. Where do you see his claim that cutting federal
spending would boost GDP?

So what's your solution? Raise taxes? On who and how much? Since
you like "reality" so much, give us some examples of where raising
taxes and feeding the government beast is better for the economy than
providing tax incentives for private companies to create jobs.

You leftists are all the same one trick pony. Your only solution to
anything is to raise taxes(on other people than yourselves of
course!). I guess you think government is a better steward of our
money than we are. Your slavish devotion to government bureaucracy
and its vast legions of incompetent backoffice paper pushers is just
plain bizarre.
