America needs a new political party. Both of the current ones are bad. Republicans are way too reactionary, Democrats are pro-censorship, and both are getting more extreme. Neither appropriately represents an average person.

Not to mention the postal service, Medicare (which gives medical assistance to the elderly), copyright/patent laws to protect your ideas and inventions, public education for every child (PRETTY IMPORTANT!!), OSHA regulations and inspections protect America’s workforce by limiting exposure to toxic chemicals, The federal minimum wage law makes sure every covered worker gets paid a basic wage, The U.S. Weather Service provides storm and hurricane warnings.

Medicare is pretty socialist, ngl. Also the minimum wage is just a law, the government doesn’t do anything with it every year. And public schools are mostly paid for on a county and state level. The other stuff is pretty fair
It is a loose form of socialism, but why is that a bad thing if it reduces deaths of 65 and older people by 20%, people who have been contributing labor to the country’s economy their whole lives? Do you want to abandon people when they’re old and can’t work anymore? 
You do realize the government has to enforce minimum wage, right? On an unrelated note, did you know that three-quarters of Americans think the federal minimum wage is too low? In a real democracy, if ¾ of the people want something to change, it should happen. However, when corporations control most politicians…
The more I think about it, the more I realize there really is no good solution to many of the problems we face today. Someone will get mad, and there will be some negative effects, no matter what. There’s always compromises
yes, and to make those compromises, politicians need to represent people 
that’s what i’m saying
