And you again show ignorance of what Socialism is and is not. The Democratic Socialist countries of Western Europe, Canada, Australia, New Zeland, Iceland, etc., are light years ahead of the USA in Education, Health Care, Life Expectancy, Infant Mortality, Retirement Planning, Energy Efficiency etc., ...
The USSR, China, N. Korea are (were) not Socialist, they are (were)Totalitarian and no better then the Thocratic society you subscribe to...
Democratic Socialism works and is not anti-capitalism. All the Democratic Socialist countries above are Capitalistic just like the USA - only better at it...
They do not interfere with religion. Personal freedoms and liberties are greater than in the USA and yes, they have constitutions.
Do the Republican-Theocrats have indoctrination camps for you people?

Wait till Ayres brings Venezuela's schools here.
So if those countries are so great why are you still here.
So you think people who don't pay taxes should get a tax refund.You also think paying 50% of your income in taxes is ok.
I think many drivers disagree with you.
As for no forcing churches we already had a Bible publisher sued by a gay.how about this in countries you claim have no problems.
No Free Speech in Preaching | Christianity Today | A Magazine of Evangelical Conviction
A Swedish court sentenced a Pentecostal pastor to one month in prison after finding him guilty of offending homosexuals in a sermon. The case was the first trial test of the national law against incitement as applied to speech about homosexuals.
Last year during a sermon delivered in the east coast town of Borgholm, Ake Green described homosexuality as "abnormal, a horrible cancerous tumor in the body of society." He called homosexuals "perverts, whose sexual drive the Devil has used as his strongest weapon against God."
During proceedings, the public prosecutor, Kjell Yngvesson, played a tape recording from the sermon. According to the church newspaper Kyrkans Tidning, he justified the arrest by saying, "One may have whatever religion one wishes, but [the sermon] is an attack on all fronts against homosexuals. Collecting Bible [verses] on this topic as he does makes this hate speech."
Stopping free speech in churches is not far off.You say not but thats what they said in the 50's about school prayer and abortion or in the 80's about imminent domain.
