I don’t want those filthy socialist rats to get their hands on the levers of power.

If they did, and it only affected them, I would be all for it. But we would be forced to suffer the consequences of their black, malicious, stupidity as well.

I’ve always had that attitude.

When it adversely affects them, so what. But when we must suffer the consequences, it is unjust and wrong.

Socialism only spreads the misery equally except for the elites who are not affected that much.

The USSR had it’s Nomenclatura (elite oligarchs). We are now in an Oligarchy.
