>One way to test for correct logic is to push an idea to its limit. If it still makes sense at the extreme then the idea is sound. So, let's apply the test to capitalism and socialism.
>
>Capitalism (Republicans) - Reduces taxation to allow profits in business to afford the hiring of new people who become taxpayers
>
>Socialism (Democrats) - Increases taxation and spend the money on government programs to see that all have equitable income.
>
>Extreme Capitalism - Reduces taxation to nothing. The government becomes small. New ideas are brought forth. New inventions are created. Citizens thrive. Everybody works.
>
>Extreme Socialism - Takes all the money from all the people and expands the government and employs all the people who are paid nothing for their work.

>Which one makes sense?

>Now you know for whom you should vote, because the bottom line is, "Do I want to destroy America?" or "Do I want America to thrive?"
By standards you describe above (government/taxes/social services), Canada is Cuba in comparison to US.
Does it mean Canada is on a verge of destruction ???
