Reform VS revolution is basically always the debate in a movement.
Yes there is evidence that welfare for the people was able to provide the middle class in the US with wealth. And democratic socialism seems to be working well in Europe.
But the threat of the rich coming back and taking it is very really. Reagan in the 80s. Brexit. Other “populist” movements in other countries.
Half hearted reform barely works for the poor and we’re always an election or two away from shit.
Europe doesn’t have socialism and a lot of countries would be super pissed at you if you called them that. People died trying to get out of socialism and they don’t want it now.
Market ain’t correctly regulated. Monopolistic practices are being used to suppress non conforming thoughts. :P

So I kind of get both sides.

OK thanks for your input. You clearly know a lot about how different people in the world talk about different political systems.
