The Big Bad Wolf

Today in the New York Times there is a lengthy article about Dutch socialism. Republicans use the term socialism like the "F" word. Take the time to read the article and you will quickly see why the Dutch are very happy with their system, and why it scares the right wingers here so badly. The idea of sharing is quite contrary to the right wing. Very strange that in a so called "Christian" country people would be so opposed to sharing. One of the most interesting things about the Dutch system is how it came about. The Dutch had to cooperate to deal with the fact that they all live below sea level. Cooperation became a way of life. Wow what a terrible thing. Imagine Bill O the clown on Fox or Rush reading the article, steam would emit from their ears and they would be stuttering trying to bash the Dutch system.
