This column by the son of Cuban immigrants is worth the time. I think this paragraph gives us a look at the only "benefit" of "Democratic Socialism" ...
Like those of yesteryear, today’s socialists believe the government should nationalize major industries, propose eliminating private ownership of companies, and reject profits. In other words, democratic socialism is a lot like the system my family fled, except its proponents promise to be nicer when seizing your business.What I disagree with the columnist on is that what "Democratic Socialism" really is would be "Democratic Fascism" ... Hitler with a smiley face. This is well covered in Jonah Goldberg's book "Liberal Fascism".
Today's millenials are ripe for fascism ... certainly not students of history, very easily taken in by the slick pitch about "greatest good for the greatest number", no theological of philosophical grounding. Lambs to the slaughter.
