This is the common problem of the socialist. They KNOW that their system has failed EVERYWHERE it’s been tried, but they suffer from the delusion that it just hasn’t been implemented the correct way yet. They think that because they are so intellectually superior to the rest of us, that their brand of socialism will be a screaming success. They suffer from a complete lack of understanding of basic human psychology, if you can get something for free, you won’t appreciate it, and you won’t work for it, and you’ll use it until it’s completely broken or all used up.
Most of this is easily understandable basic economics, if you set the price of something arbitrarily too low, the demand will go up and the supply will go down. Then you have what you have in Canada and Europe. We have that here too, but to a much smaller degree, since the government hasn’t gotten completely involved in setting prices for the entire system yet.
