Precisely. Things like Medicare, Social Security, and unemployment benefits all reflect socialistic values, yet they are supported by many staunch conservatives. If only people would stop the name calling and start reading more, they'd see that the US, through its very unique political upbringings, has some very entrenched socialistic programs in place, along with other policies that reflect capitalist values as well. The political world is not a black and white arena of good and evil, people!
