What I'm saying is that it doesn't matter. That's the opening you're giving the Left.It could be argued that conservatives have no one else to blame but themselves for this.The responses of the big government types are so predictable. Their first line is always "Oh yeah you must hate roads and parks of you don't like the government"
When virtually every example of government involvement is shouted down as "socialist" and "unconstitutional", the Right opens itself up in two ways:
First, it's so easy to point out programs that are beneficial and poke a whole in the absolutist argument.
Second, the constant attack on all the "socialist" programs of the federal government appears to have softened the public's stance on "socialism" to the point where, clearly, more and more people are willing to defend it.
It looks like this strategy of screaming "socialism" is beginning to backfire.

Who is saying roads are socialist?

Me? I'm not a republican nor a conservative as you define it
