said by actor90:Your right Obama is more of a socialist then Rudd is at the moment. Or have you missed his plans for nationalizing of the auto industry and health care? Or his plans on forcing cap and trade, thereby doubling electric rates?
Cap and Trade has nothing to do with socialism so I fail to see your point on that.
As for the auto industry, if it was truly nationalized the American government would own an actual controlling interest and earn a return on said investment. As it stands right now, the government is handing them money with no oversight and no control, and continuing to more or less keep the status quo in check, regardless of what the optics in the media play be saying.
That isn't socialism. That's fascism.
Not that I'm calling Obama a fascist, but you really need to get your ideologies correct before shooting your mouth off. And calling Obama a socialist is not only laughable, it's downright moronic. "Conservatives" in most countries around the world are more "socialist" than Obama or the Democratic Party could ever hope to be.
