the article that I also thought nailed it:
"The perpetual appeal of Socialism is simply that of the path of least resistance to sustaining ones self.
So long as plunder is easier than labor, plunder (i.e. socialism) will be the path of least resistance. This is not difficult math.
The entire point of THE LAW is to make plunder more difficult and dangerous than labor.
When THE LAW ceases to perform that very simple function, the absurdity of the 'social contract' between government and the individual is revealed.
i.e. 'just powers' are derived by consent of each individual, while 'unjust powers' are derived by initiation of force, violence and coercion upon innocent individuals.
Welcome to the Tax Farm.
Now, I have no problem with people enslaving themselves. What is immoral and economically retarded is that the enslaved DEMAND you join them in their self-imposed cage.

"Socialism's appeal is psychological.It is attractive to the power hungry who see themselves as put in charge of resources,without working for the position, or that the government will take care of them."

"Sometimes it makes you wonder if wealth creation itself makes people socialists because they don't appreciate that it didn't come from nothing but took centuries of capital accumulation."
