the corporatist plutocracy that is western democracy can only work if there is strong balance between socialism and capitalism.. these sorts of kelptocratic dictatorships have no relationship modern western socialism but.. of course it is a good example though... from the violently suppressed anti-government protests to the few elite that make all the money on fuel.

Our government in the west is just a refined version of these Mugabe,Castro Burma et al . regimes, socialism plays a small part in either really.. but get this.
Humans are social creatures, it is sort of what got us from point A to point B , so you can never really eliminate the social aspect from politics but you can misrepresent it as being something evil when the evil is clearly caused by elements that are corrupt and anti-social .
