Socialism is un-American.

Capitalism is based upon the idea of personal property and rights, and America was founded on these ideals. Nobody has the right to take away someone's property through coercion even if it means that the next guy starves. However, the important piece of the puzzle is charity and kindness. (which are both in short supply these days) America was founded to be a moral society, in which the rich guy would help to poor guy with nobody forcing him. He would do it just because it was the right thing to do. But through years of liberal indoctrination we've lost our morals and our sense of right and wrong, and hence we have socialism.
