The difference between a liberal and a socialist concerning healthcare for the poor would be this:

The liberal would want provide aid to the poor in terms of insurance and the like. The socialist would want to take over all forms of medicine in the name of helping the poor.

See the difference?

The difference there, between a state funded-privately run and a state run healthcare system is purely economic. Providing insurance is a lot more expensive than providing healthcare, because of the perverse incentive effects from the provision of insurance in healthcare. Many liberals make an exception for healthcare, because there are clear economic reasons for it being state run.

For a Republican leader, you seem strangely pink.

For someone in reality, you seem strangely out of touch with it.

Gentlemen, please!

This is a thread on British Multiculturalism, not a definition of political parties in the USA.

"Socialism refers to a broad array of doctrines or political movements that envisage a socio-economic system in which property and the distribution of wealth are subject to social control.

If you apply this definition blindly you have rendered the term meaningless through its broadness. According to it every modern political leader has been a socialist to some degree.



As with most political philosophies, socialism defies simple definitions.
