Socialists are possessed by the idea that they can promise something that collective (usually government will provide). Of course collective fails on that promise most of the time. What then for the solution? We lacked the resources, therefore we need more TAXES, more DEBT, more CONTROL - and this time it will be different!
Indeed. I don't think most Americans realize how often their own politicians sound like Soviets and use the exact same logic. I'm not calling them all socialists but I get why some do. The hubris of politicians is hard to wrap your head around.
