I walked away from both parents when i was 18 and never looked back.
Any nurturing I got was from my cats and God.
One night as a young child I felt a warm and comforting presence in my room as i was in my bed.
I did not open my eyes, but knew I had someone looking over me and protecting me.
It sure as hell was neither of my parents.
It makes you strong when you know you are on your own emotionally at eight years old.
When it is not allowed to be questioned, it is not science, it is PROPAGANDA
My mother used to say that "each generation grows weaker and wiser". I understood , even as a kid that "wiser" meant accumulated knowledge not better capacity for reason or common sense. She and dad sometimes did walk to school, uphill BOTH ways. I walked sometimes, by choice but it was uphill only one way and not as far. Today the bus stops at every single house! With all our technology even some farmers and loggers have to hit the gym! LOL
Now I can see how our knowledge is actively making us physically weaker.
I can only speak for myself, but when I use the word "socialism", I refer to government control of an industry or welfare state schemes that allow people to live off of the system.
Socialization of certain things is ok, if it is properly designed. For example, socialized roads work. Socialized healthcare can work as well, but it depends on how you design the system.
What doesn't work is having the government run most industries in an economy, which is what socialism is as an economic system. Also, the welfare state doesn't work very well either.
That being said, I actually would be ok with a UBI system if we got rid of all other welfare. It would be cheaper to maintain, and it would require very few employees. It could also provide an option for accepting an equivalent tax break, if you didn't want or need to receive the stipend.
