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.

Don't like Social Security.
Don't like public schools.
Insurance provided by the free market is not socialism, it is free preople
working together.
The military is not socialism.
Public roads, well, would you prefer driving on a goat path?

But socialism rots the soul and removes the incentive to improve oneself. And
lets petty tyrants decide your fate.

Burn it down and start over.

Excellent idea!!! We could be Ethiopia!!!

Superior option over a Dick Cheney sort of rotting soul.
