Thanks for the link, I enjoyed the discussion! Pricetrace is awesome.

BTW — I think the poll you are referring to is due to the majority of people being against the public option in the health care reform. Since that poll, the public option has been dropped (to the best of my knowledge).

Ok, so what *is* your definition of a Socialist?

That depends on whether you are using a capital “S” or small “s.” To me, both are comfortable with redistribution of wealth – the difference is the “Big S” Socialists are willing to bypass democracy to get there while the “little s” socialists believe in achieving those ideals through the democratic process.

Enjoyed the discussion too, MLR!

Re: poll… all of the numbers were from Dec 21, which is long after the public option was dropped. The Senior Citizen question though was from back in October, which I believe was before the public option was dropped, MLR.
