are obamas policies socalistic?

[iceberg]

i've asked this several times in conversations over the last few days but i don't recall an answer that really...answered the question.

is sharing the wealth socalistic?

is his wife saying someone have to give up a piece of the pie to get universal health care socalistic?

i'm not attacking bush with this, i'm not defending mccain. i'd like for us to do what we want the politicians to do - talk the issues w/o blowing off the question with a "you're scarier than me!" reply.

are his policies socialistic? again, please keep this to talking about obama's policies, and not anyone elses in diversion.

The top tax bracket will return to where it was under the Reagan Administration. Unless you think Reagan's tax policies constituted socialism, the answer is a resounding no.

I am sorry universal health care is a socialistic concept;

Taxes in themselves are not socialistic redistributing the wealth as he states is.

I hope so.

Fact of the matter is social security, military, public education, public police force, and single payer universal healthcare are all socialist policies. There is nothing wrong with socialism. There is something wrong with pure socialism just like there is something wrong with pure capitalism. A society needs both capitalism and socialism. Too much of either is bad.

The problem is the word socialism has become a bad word in our society, which has led to the extreme capitalism we are experiencing today.

Ding Ding Ding.

McCain needs to turn in his Medicare card if he's totally against it. Gov Palin needs to bill everybody in Alaska about $3,000 for their Oil checks if she is against it.
