Socialism works in Europe because they have a small highly educated/skilled homogeneous population. Wealth is more evenly distributed and you don't have the richest 1% paying all the taxes.
In Germany for instance the highest decile of taxpayers earn about 25% of all income and pay about 50% of all income tax revenue of the country. The other half is paid by the other 9 deciles below, who together earn 75% of all income.

So is a corporation a public entity? Or is it often a private entity with a few people on top reaping the benefits while the property of the corporation still belong to the corporation?
Have you heard of public offering? There're companies that offer their shares for public ownership.
I hate cars, what a waste of energy... You should have emulated the dense railroad network instead
Funny story: The US had streetcars and trolley systems all over the country, until GM bought up all those companies, closed them down, tore up the tracks and cables, and forced people to buy cars.
Capitalism! Monopolizing then destroying an industry to force consumers to pay more money for an inferior product.
I dont see why anybody would even have a discussion about a different system...
Seriously.... Why are Americans so Anti-Socialised? Reading on this forum I am speechless.
They hate government restriction, hate labor law protecting workers, and so pro corporates. Are people brainwashed or whats going on?
Take a look at Germany as an example... Socialized nation with lower unemployment rate than us, higher quality of life, much less or no poverty, and largest economy in Europe. They have 82 million people, still a lot.
I suppose most Americans have not lived outside of the USA in a socialist or democratic socialist country or have travelled extensively. Having that experience, can be a life-changing event and for an insightful and intelligent person, worldviews are re-examined.
Brainwashing becomes "brain cleaning" when one takes the time to study and learn of other cultures. Unfortunately, most people do not spring clean.
