Court House - I love peoples' reactions to the word socialism. It's like you just slapped them in the face. How do you think police get funding? Public works? School systems? They are all funded by a form of socialism. We, the taxpayers pay the taxes so these programs can exist.

Moderator's Note: 
Socialism is defined by Merriam-Webster as "a way of organizing a society in which major industries are owned and controlled by the government rather than by individual people and companies."
