Words have meaning.

And how do they pay for said "public goods". Wouldn't be the pooling of taxes collected from the public would it?

It used to be tarrifs and fines. We should go back to that. Also these are "infrastructure" as in vital systems to support economic growth.

So you think a purely capitalist system wouldn't have any roads? Do you think the troll would build the bridge and charge a toll to use it?

So how does it work with k-12 schools, ambulance, every branch of the military, us postal service, etc etc.

I'll try to use small words for you. Public goods are not socialism.

Public goods payed for by the public via taxes for a social structure. But ok.

Facebook is a social network, doesn't mean it's socialism either. Take an economics class. Maybe you'll learn something.

Man, that's a scary word for you guys isn't it, it's the word that hides under your bed at night, in your closet, in your head.

Most people that actually know what socialism is think it's pretty scary. Funny how none of the people who have immigrated from socialist countries support socialist politicians. Seems like they would think it's great, right?
