Why can't liberals be honest about ANYTHING?

So, the debt Ronald Reagan run up with defense spending was "socialist?" Doesn't it therefore follow that Reagan was a socialist? Why, or why not?

Socialism is taking money from someone who earned it, and handing it to others simply because they need it.

How exactly do you equate that to the military? Those men and women are EARNING their pay for work served. Trying to make this case is like claiming congress is "socialism" because we pay them to do a job....

Please try and keep up. Or at least ask your mom what these terms mean before commenting on them

By your OWN DEFINITION.

The military is socialism.

In socialism everybody (ostensibly) is equal.

Tell that to a private and and a general in the same sentence in the same room, and wait to see who punches you out first for being an incurable idiot.

Well your argument creates quite the quandry..doesn't it. Since most "socialist" countries have the same sort of military structure we do.

And the Declaration of Independence has:

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
