Taking care of everyone, at what expense? Does it justify limiting meritocratic gain? Personal financial gain? Does it justify putting a cap on productivity, on ingenuity? Is it alright if worker motivation and incentive to succeed is completely diminished? Does it become morally acceptable to take from those who've earned it and give to those who haven't?
Because those are the absolute results of socialism in its purist form. I'll tell you what, I'll take capitalism over that any day. A rising tide floats all ships.
