| So your school is doing a thing where you take an exam and if you pass you get a $4500 scholarship. You study all night long non-stop and don't even have enough time to do things with your family and friends because you're studying so hard. On the day of the test, you pass and are supposed to receive the $4500 scholarship but at the last second, through some form of socialist ideology, they decide it would be unfair to all the other students who made Fs and Ds and didn't care about the test and didn't study so they pass all those people and your scholarship is gone. Now you know what you're doing to America. |

Quit calling that socialism, because it isn't.
In a socialist society, you'd still receive the award.
The difference is that prior to the competition, every student would receive free schooling and tutoring from the state in how to take the exam well. |

"you all are missing the point"
No, you're just creating a situation and labelling it incorrectly. Your ignorance is apparent. |

| Your title implied you were making up a socialist situation and thereby pointing out the flaws, however, I stated it WASN'T to do with socialistic values at all and that therefore you were mislabelling. |

No, the extremist belief that the fact that there are individuals who cannot help themselves to education and therefore suffer in poverty is 'okay' and is 'life'. It's not life at all. |

actually you tried to relate this to a utopia then it turned into everyone getting a fair chance
you just said if people are in poverty and cant afford a fair chance then too bad for them
so thank you |
