"Why is socialism such a boogieman in the USA?"
Propaganda I assume. Socialist ideas may be ok as long as the word isn't used.

A very surprising book. The too-short upshot is - Canadians actively consider the social welfare function as a thing in itself, while Americans try to bury it under complicated things like mortgage subsidies.
