Socialism is a wonderful idea. It is only as a reality that it has been disastrous. Among people of every race, color, and creed, all around the world, socialism has led to hunger in countries that used to have surplus food to export.

Its every failure is explained away as due to the inadequacies of particular leaders. ~Thomas Sowell
