Quite frankly, if the government is not going to look after me, provide for me, supply me with food, clothing, housing, health care, education, services and security then what on earth do I need a government for?
They act all important and spend their time strutting about making rules and regulations and red tape and bureaucracy while wasting my money on cars and houses and travel and big salaries for themselves. If a government is not socialist, it's a waste of time and space and we would be much better off just leaving them out of the equation all together - let the private sector supply goods and services needed to efficiently run things and let the justice system deal with law and order and let the fat cat government officials go and do some real work instead of spending their time telling us how to live our lives and what we can and can't do without their approval.
I want a a government that is kind and compassionate and sees as it's duty that it is there to look after it's citizens in any way it can. I look at countries like the soviet union - the so-called bastion of communism - that was not communism any more than china is communist. They called themselves communist but they didn't implement any communist ideology at all - it was once again fat cats, greedy and corrupt, perverting the ideology for their own personal ends. You can decide your own destiny in life under capitalism? Really? Tell that to the poor, the uneducated, the frail, the sick, the misfits who are expected to compete with the filthy rich, the privileged, the psychopaths and bankers who have control of the money and peoples lives. It's all nonsense.
