But it was never real socialism. It's like chasing unicorns. They hate capitalism, but they don't know what that is either. These people are being manipulated and they don't know it. Unseful idiots. Political zombies.
Pick any socialist economy past or present. Argentina, Venszuela. Socialist light, France, GB, Spain. Slow growth, little inovation, poverty, stagnation, budget deficits. They are all mostly the same. Free health care that isn't there, but it's free if you can find it.
