No, the goal of modern US liberalism is not "socialism" (as you have defined it). It is more like the systems you will find in ...

... with the probable exception of China.

The goal of modern US liberalism is to create something more like Denmark or Canada. Not the Soviet Union or Cuba.
I see you really enjoy to be in the same party as Hitler.

You'd better call Websters then and tell them to correct the error. Just let them know that you know more than they do. That should convince them.

Then you'd better quit claiming that you're gunning for socialism. What you are rooting for is a hobbled capitalist compote with extremely high taxation.

I know China is a Nazi nation.

Go to Canada and criticize LGBT and see how quickly they put you in jail. That’s pretty Nazi crap don’t you think?

Except for China, the rest aren’t socialist. They are moving towards it though.

I'm not sure, actually. But I do know that most Republicans support socialism in one form or another--that's how this country got Nixon, Reagan, both Bushes, and Trump.

I, personally, never claimed I was gunning for socialism.

The nations ...

Denmark
Finland
Netherlands
Canada
Sweden
Norway
Ireland
New Zealand
Belgium

... are all nations with "hobbled capitalism with extremely high taxation." In fact, Denmark has a whopping 45.9% of GDP going to taxation! And yet ... it's a damn nice country!

People like you are going to have to learn that high levels of taxation does not mean somewhere is going to turn into Venezuela.
