Yeah back in college I played rugby and in HS I played football and rugby . Both times I got kicked in the nuts by cleats , in football it was with metal studs on and I got hit so hard I almost vomited . <| sep |> I think it ' s pretty fair to say we ' re living in a cronycapitalist society then these days , especially with wealth inequality at the highest it ' s been lots of articles on that and congress ' unwillingness to serve the bottom 90 % of income earners Princetonnorthwestern study US is an oligarchy . And just to set the record straight , socialism is technically defined as workers controlling the means of production . No bosses . I ' m not in favor of fullblown socialism myself , especially not in your regard . But I do believe the government needs to step in and create artificial markets , which are heavily regulated , in order for the results to be the best they can . For example , I would like to see this done with cable companies . Finally , I would like to see the eradication of private health insurance and prison companies . I believe in universal health care . I do not believe in allowing the monetization of things which are essential to a person ' s existence in today ' s modern world .
