Well, I'd argue that, in practice, socialism usually is the same as corporate cronyism. The only difference is that the government is production.
In a crony capitalism, industry buys government. In a socialism, government is industry, so oligarchs still control everything.
In theory, socialism is different, but not when it's actually tried.

Relaxing and just dismissing it will ensure it happens. The hard left is patient. They rely on people becoming complacent. They understand that they can realize their dream through incrementalism.

So, old commie hippies are now the means of production that own the people's government?
And if you'll note, donttread. The Packers haven't been relevant since Rodgers made that statement. He relaxed as well....by insisting they replace the coach. Not such a great analogy to be using?
