Unfortunately, most European governments seem to take the opposite view right now: they want Europe to be more like America.


I doubt that many European governments are that extremist.

It's funny how the Republicans have cast our European friends into the role of the "socialist" bad guy, especially in regard to universal healthcare. They seem to have forgotten that we share a common western civilization with western Europe.

As long as it stays socialism and doesn't turn to communism I have no problem after researching socialism and learning a little more about it I can understand how it could work in America.
