He was right that we have been moving toward socialism for some time. We did not in the beginning rely on the federal government to fund and control the standards in schools. Also in the beginning (I think) our money was just another way to trade gold. All transactions were not made by with money. We did not have a standing army. So on one hand he is right in that we have been moving towards socialism but in my opinion that is not how we started. He is also right if you support some socialist programs there is no reason for you to not support them all.</p></blockquote><p></p>
