  • Socialism is better than
    capitalism. So say 20 percent of Americans, and another 27 percent say
    they can't say which is better, according to an April 9 Rasmussen poll.

    There's hope.

    When
    you consider that virtually no newspaper, broadcaster, well-funded
    think tank, teacher, or anybody's boss or commander ever said something
    nice about socialism, it's remarkable that only 53 percent of us still
    favor rule by the moneyed class. Perhaps folks are learning how
    capitalism sacrifices happiness for individual gain.
