Was insurance affordable before Obamacare? Did people with insurance 10 years ago lose out?
The trouble with communism type socialism is that it is imposed from the top down, with the state controlling the means of production & appropriating industry & running it by bureaucrats. Thus the people lose out because control is not local. A better, more Scriptural form of socialism is local cooperative ventures where production benefits the producers, ideally a village situation where strip & rotational farming supports the community, & those with other skills - cooking, preserving, teaching, pastoral care, healing, all seek to serve.
After the English civil war the Levellers - the common people who had fought for their lords sought to establish collectives by farming common land. As far as the lords were concerned, there was no common land.
And the lords make the laws -
The law locks up the man or woman
Who steals the goose off the common
But leaves the greater villain loose
Who steals the common from the goose.
The law demands that we atone
When we take things we do not own
But leaves the lords and ladies fine
Who takes things that are yours and mine.
The poor and wretched don’t escape
If they conspire the law to break;
This must be so but they endure
Those who conspire to make the law.
The law locks up the man or woman
Who steals the goose from off the common
And geese will still a common lack
Till they go and steal it back.
