Maybe America will be the last country that has to prove that Socio-Communism doesn't work.Around seventy years too late with this article.
I would say there is an argument to be made that we are already there.

slowly moving towards socialism??? Somebody isn’t paying attention...
It already has.
With the Commie ‘RATS getting ready to confiscate our retirement accounts, I’d say we jumped over socialism and went straight into fascism.
Slowly, huh?
Demo-Commies are to be hated. Period. All of us who worked hard to get ahead have been screwed by the 52% of the idiots out there.
It all comes down to this: if we conservatives have been right all these years about how to organize a free republican government and a free economy, we win. If the Commies and Social-Fascists have been right all these years in supposing that people will willingly trade a little (or a lot) of freedom in exchange for the illusion of “fairness” and the “security” that comes from knowing that however bad off I may be, my neighbor is no better off than I (except, of course, for the “artists” and the “intelligentsia”, who are somewhat more equal than the rest of us), then all of us lose. I believe that history’s on our side, but history never unfolds quite as fast as we might desire. Nevertheless, there’s a vestigial spirit of rebellion and freedom that will guarantee that the American people will never be good subjects for an experiment in totalitarian utopianism.
My God, he’s got everything exact.
So now... what will be our end game?

The social theory we call socialism has its origins dating back to the French Revolution. Various social commentators and philosophers such as Pierre-Joseph Proudhon, Robert Owen, and Henri de Saint-Simon all contributed in some ways to its philosophical development. Each building on the previous work of others until Marx and Engels codified the concept by encapsulating it into a workable theory which they called scientific socialism. Born of man’s corrupt nature socialism represents mans desire to create a utopian paradise free from struggle and strife where equality reigns supreme. Since its inception proponents of the theory have dedicated all of their efforts into tossing out the existing order and supplanting it with what they considered a huge leap forward in the development of human thought. Nothing could be farther from reality for this supposed leap forward is, when all of the platitudes and self aggrandizement are removed, the complete opposite. It is a return to the savage state once occupied by prehistoric man...
