Wrong. It is socialized if it is available to everyone regardless of how rich or poor they are.

We will have to agree to disagree on that. You know where I stand. Right now we have socialist corporatism, not capitalism. Corporations get bailed out and are subsidized by the government, and they get to keep the profits. In many cases, their employees are on state funded medicaid programs because they get no insurance from their employers, even though they get government money, and they make hundreds of millions, sometimes billions, of dollars. I'm fucking sick of it. The system we have is B-R-O-K-E-N. We need to FIX it. Corporations are to greedy and corrupt to be trusted. The only system left is the government. Sad as that is.
