So it took state socialism to breed our “Greatest Generation”?

Yegads, the implications are pretty scary.

The problem is that people frequently insist on viewing socialism as black and white.

It’s not, it’s a sliding scale.

On one end we have Andrew Ryan’s Rapture and on the other hand we have, well lets say Sophia Lamb’s rapture for lack of a better example.

Clearly the US is in the middle somewhere between pure socialism and pure capitalism.

One can in fact argue that we should slide a few more steps towards S without wanting to have the government run everything….
