from Common Dreams. When capitalists become defensive after wrecking the economy for working people, they cry "socialism" (their version of "wolf") at any attempts to curb their power. Few Americans have any idea what the word means after so many years of indoctrination in the merits of capitalism. Actually, it is a quite complicated word in that its advocates support a variety of ways toward the goal of social-economic justice. It's great to see the younger generation actually wanting to take a hard look at it. Most people of my generation in the US quite literally have mental spasms when they hear the word.
