actively damaging to any attempt to discuss government -- or liberty --
effectively, because it so distorts the meaning of the term "socialism" as to
render it meaningless.

Charlie,
       I am not a HS kid standing at a black board trying to explain a better
way to work an Algebra problem. I am a man that has seen something of life
comparing your words with the 200 years history of modern day socialism.
Charlie, many besides you have wrote on the theory of socialism and when
compared to their real world applications they come up short every time.
       How do you intend to correct the short comings that have caused you to
fail without exception in the past?
Ron h.
