They should not be banned but countered with all the reasons why their pie-in-the-sky ideologies always end up in failure when implemented at large scale and succeed only in making or keeping the majority of society poor with a small veneer of comparatively less poor Party people floating on top. Time and time again, and again and again. And then some because 'those earlier versions were not real socialism but this time it will work'. It won't. It can only work at a small scale, up to the number of people a person has in his personal circle of family/friend/clan members. As soon as the circle grows larger it will fall prey to parasites who leech off it and be taken over by power-hungry individuals who use the 'socialist' paradigm to push themselves to the top of the hierarchy. Once there they do their best to stay on top, creating a cadre of bootlickers. They are the thin layer of fat on top of the watery soup that socialism produces. I run my family as a communist, by those according to their means to those according to their needs. We run our friend circles as socialists, supporting those who are in need. We run our country as capitalists with some government oversight to keep the excesses to a minimum. Just like running a family as capitalists does not make sense - how is your toddler going to pay for her dinner I wonder - it does not make sense to run a country as if it is one big happy family because it isn't.
