You believe the public school system actually works? That's a socialist system. From k-12 that's a socialist system. Do children come out more intelligent? Schools don't make people more intelligent they're used to indoctrinate. And give you a piece of paper saying you're smart when in fact you're just as dumb as ever but now you're more inclined towards their thinking rather then free thinking and critical thinking. They will always teach you 1+1=2 When i can logically say 1+1=3 but I am wrong because they said so. (1+1=3 think of two humans having a child)
County hospitals are considered socialist. Have you ever worked in one? Have you seen how the patients are treated? I have, and it's not pretty.
In socialist systems the quality tends to dramatically decline. Tell me do you actually believe the government is in it for your best interest when they tell you fluoride in the water is safe?
Government itself is inherently violent and you want more of it. It's a monopoly on violence if anything.
All of those things you're arguing against (with the exception of fluoridated water... Which I don't really understand what people freak out over) are the result of a government so keen on "The Free Market" that it ignores the socialist aspects of it's society.
We spend
700 billion dollars on military spending. That's MUCH MORE than the four other nations with the highest military spending
combined. If we were to find a way to shave off at least 100 billion dollars, the problems in our a school system would be mostly fixed.
Secondly, you
could say 1 + 1 = 3 by arguing the "two humans and a baby" thing... But from a numerical standpoint you're factually wrong. Teaching kids to ignore, cold, hard, numbered facts would just ruin our education system even more. Giving a kid a reward for saying "1 plus 1 equals 3" just does what you say is wrong with this school system: It makes kids believe they're smart when they're dumb as ever.
Are you saying we should "fix" hospitals by privatizing them? By making
saving your life a greed based business? Of all the things you mentioned, that has the highest chance of leading to a complete collapse of society. If organ donations were compulsory after death, and if the government could motivate more people to become doctors by raising the average wages of doctors, then our hospital system would be fixed. But instead of doing that, the government has been taxing the lower classes of society more so the higher classes have to pay less, making it harder and harder for people to get a decent education.
I disagree with you on one fundamental principle: That government is based off of violence. Government is based off of two things: Liberty and Protection. The government regulates things, it oversees things, and bans things to keep our liberty safe and sound. What's more "free", a government that allows business to dump trash and pollution
anywhere (effectively destroying the environment and filling the skies with smog and poisonous gasses) or a government that regulates pollution, freeing you from the need to go outside wearing a gas mask, freeing you of the
need to stay inside so you don't breath too much ash?
A world without government, is a world without freedom. Look at Somalia if you wish to see what this "freedom" is like. It's been proven time and again that a society with
less regulation and
"freer" markets usually ends up
decreasing the amount of freedoms you can enjoy in life.
