Socialism works!

Everyone in Zimbabwe is a Billionaire!

When I was little, I heard a song that completely turned me off of socialistic intentions... It was "I'd Love to Change the World" by Ten Years After. The line, which as a 6 year old, really bothered me, was "tax the rich, feed the poor, till there are no rich no more." Within my little 6 year old mind, I was thinking "being rich is a good thing, and the more rich people there are the better. Why wouldn't everyone want to be rich. But why do these people want to get rid of the rich, rather than getting rid of the poor, by making the poor rich?"

A simple question, which no leftist has ever been able to answer for me.
