Here's a question to the socialists at heart.
Say the boot was on the other foot. What if you had a job that paid well in a capitalist market, and was continuing your education to obtain a master's degree for a healthy raise, and I was an unemployed, unskilled worker not really wanting to be a "wage slave" for my life.
Would you still cling to all aspects of socialism?
I'm not saying, of course, all socialists are unemployed, but I know one on here that is Overall though, this is just a "different perspective" post though.
Knowing I was leeching off you, and I'm definitely not alone, would you still back me up by continuing in this system? Or would you condemn me? Would you quietly do the things I didn't want to do, or would you suggest I go somewhere that I would have to do what you do to survive?
Opinions, please.
