I'd agree the first four could be seen as socialistic, in a strict
sense,
but #5?


It's not as blatant a form of a socialist economy as the other 4, but

it
is
socialism to some degree. For instance, if $5000 of my money goes to
education via taxes, then I'm being forced by the government to pay for

my
kids to go to public school. That's socialism.

And if there were no private schools? Who would you expect to pay

teachers'
salaries?



Nobby's concept of socialism is based upon too many whiffs of dental
laughing gas.

Tax breaks for those attending "private school" is a buzz phrase for
using public funds to support Christian schools.


The funds are only "public" because some "private" citizen was forced to
give them to the government. There is no such thing as "public" funds...so
let's just call them publicly held private funds.



You need to get your head out of newsmax.
