I understand how you feel about a government imposing socialism onto the people but has it ever occurred to you that some people like socialism. I think a better solution that would allow everyone to live under the society they want is sucession from the union. Its a hypothetical proposal but can you imagine another that yields the greatest overall happiness of each citizen and maintains every citizen's right to live under the government they want.
Lets now imagine something a little less destructive to the nation such as state nullification of unconstitutional laws that go outside its delegated powers. Every state can then simply nullify whatever law they don't like and states that do like the socialist stuff can not nullify those federal laws. This way everyone is happy.
a little bit of socialism here and a little bit there is not a bad thing....its when it goes way overboard without any body keeping it in check .......kinda like here in California.....its out of control.... Entitlements galore .....and now these jerks dont know what to do and WILL NOT admit they fucked up....
