The retort to extremes by bringing failures of Communism do not address any of the key points from the parent comment. Red scare is a concept from the 1950s, time to update the boogeyman. Of course it's ok to charge for more services but there's a limit until your whole society is divided into an underclass and an overclass sharing the same spaces, the same rides in a theme park, the same social contexts and can see the divide. That generates social unsatisfaction, people have an inherent sense of fairness (and many animals as well) which can create social tension, boil that to the limit and you have the violence and crime you see in the USA but not in many other developed countries. The statement about what the US does is the right thing because it's one of the richest countries on Earth is ignorant, or simply naïve. Also, a comical clichê of Americans worldview.
