    Americans tend to be kept from learning what socialism actually is, because then they might like it. I remember reading a 50’s World Book encyclopedia which essentially defined socialism as an autocratic dictatorship.

    I was told in school that if you lived in a socialist society, your job was picked out for you, basically from birth.
