I won't. I don't understand why someone would rather see the house
burn down than go socialist.

But for now, I am assuming that like most people, you are very
selective about what socialism you are willing to die for. Social
Security is an obvious example of socialism - but as far as that goes,
*all* insurance is socialism. Public schools is socialism. Publicly
paid for military is socialism. Public roads is socialism. It's hard
to see how anybody will benefit by burning them all down.
