Only in your right wing fantasy. It doesn't matter when government was created. Government must be a form of socialism to the extent this is necessary:
Nothing is more certain than the indispensable necessity of government, and it is equally undeniable, that whenever and however it is instituted, the people must cede to it some of their natural rights in order to vest it with requisite powers.--The Federalist Number Two
that IS social-ism.
You are presenting the very valid argument for a Federalist REPUBLICAN form of Government... NOT Socialism. Again, you are operating on a misconception of what Socialism IS. It is easy to draw your conclusions when you ignorantly believe ALL Government IS Socialism... or Social-ism. It's simply not and logic slaps you in your silly ignorant face repeatedly. Apparently, you enjoy that sort of thing.
Just lousy reading comprehension? I read dictionaries to understand encyclopedias. the right wing, gets their complete and entire understanding of this topic, from a dictionary.
this is the Social-ism part; it applies to any government via a social Contract. it is Social-ism.
I don't care if you're using a dictionary, encyclopedia or whatever resource, you can't make an irrational and illogical argument. You're trying to argue that ALL government is "socialist" because it involves social contract. That's false. It does not become true because you stomp your feet and insist it's true for page after page on a message board.
I'm sorry... we can get you a jello cup if that makes you feel better. You're not going to be allowed to establish your own truth here based on your ignorance.
the people must cede to it some of their natural rights in order to vest it with requisite powers.
This is a quote from John Jay in Federalist 2 and it doesn't make us Socialists. Jay and other framers understood that individual liberty and free market capitalism was ineffective in dealing with certain aspects of a civil society because the incentives were all wrong. This is why I often speak of our Free Market Capitalist
System. It's more than simply free market capitalism. A
system is a collection of things working together. In our
system, there is free market capitalism, free enterprise, private property rights, individual liberty, a constitution (our social contract) which outlines enumerated powers of a federal government and guarantees protection of our inalienable rights endowed by our Creator. Again... this is NOT Socialism.
Now, some people might think, if Marx and Engels had been around a generation or two earlier, perhaps the framers would have adopted a Socialist form of government for the United States. But the fact is, the ideas of socialism were around from the days of antiquity and Plato. Even Thomas Paine advocated public ownership of property. So these ideas were very definitely being tossed around during our founding. They didn't call it "Socialism" at the time, they had other words for it, but the idea was out there. So why didn't our framers adopt it? Why did they fight vociferously for individual liberty and private property ownership? Why did they intentionally establish a small limited Federal government with enumerated powers? Why did they give us a representative republican form of government instead of a social communal democratic government? Why was democracy so feared by the framers that the word isn't even included in the Constitution? It's not just a convenient coincidence.
