I'm more of a liberal than conservative I believe in universal Healthcare, free college, and I believe in safety nets.

That's not liberal. That's socialist. Liberal is today's conservative where you make your own way and better yourself. Socialism simply doesn't work. The small 'benefits' are always overwhelmed by the problems it creates. I have lived under both 'liberal' and 'socialist' and every time a socialist government was elected the overall poverty increased. The problem is that under socialism you are robbing Peter to pay Paul and the minute you start doing that Peter stops working. As Margret Thatcher observed socialism works so long as you have other people's money. Unfortunately all too soon you run out of other peoples' money.

@hippyjoe1955: capitalism is also a illusion just like socialism. plus I don't believe in the government taking over major industries, I just believe in Free healthcare and free college.

Life is an illusion. Move on. Do you want to live in poverty for the rest of you life? Vote socialist. Want to live in relative wealth? Vote liberal.

Check out the American Communist platform. It's identical.

Actually communism is far from that, Communism abolishes all property and suppose to create a stateless classless society, all businesses are run by the government.
