I think it’s long past time for the scare-word “socialist” to lose its power to intimidate politicians and frighten voters into voting against their interests and supporting more give-aways to the wealthiest few.

The Soviet Union is long gone. The People’s Republic of China more resembles a corporatist state than the “red menace” used to frighten credulous and easily-cowed voters. The only two remaining Marxist states are North Korea and Cuba. NK is only a regional menace with nukes while Cuba is more of a threat to drug cartels (The Cubans don’t let the cartels use Cuba as a launching pad for shipments to the US).

We have more to fear from crony capitalism and corporate-run government than we do from “sewer socialism.”
