I fully agree that those who break their oath of office should be removed... immediately. As to policies, instead of labeling them socialist or otherwise, can't we just measure them on their chance of success? Our society is in many ways socialist. But, rather than depend on the government, I was taught to depend on myself and friends and family. The government does not recognize me as an individual, only a number. For that reason, how could I depend on it? The government dictates what I can and cannot do in many different ways. And I bend to its wishes in most instances. But only in knowing that when the sky does fall, it will not protect me. If you think the government has a responsibility to protect you, you are wrong. Men signed the Constitution, those men are dead. Those that came after had their own ideas and were driven by them. Same today. The people that make up our government have their own interests, and sad to say, we probably are not one of them. Maybe "middle of the road" was an incorrect term. I don't know that we are actually on a road any longer. Uncharted territory. Maybe it is needed to bring us back to center. Who knows.
