He was also a socialist, of course - as any man with brains is
The problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people's money. Margaret Thatcher
Churchill said something to the effect that if you are in your twenties and not a socialist you have no heart, but if you are in your forties and a socialist, you have no brain. Socialism sounds nice and good, but it does not work. Communism is essentially the same situation as socialism, with a more oppressive government, but the end result being the same. One huge issue I have is that here in America, we take money from defense, and put it to social programs, while our enemies are increasing their militaries. Charity is not the government's role. Individuals should take accountability for themselves.
"A government big enough to give you everything you need is big enough to take everything you have."
