EVERYONE is not of the belief that ALL socialism is inherently "bad", as you are - so, NO, EVERYONE else is not wrong. In this case, it's just you. I'm not saying that to pick on you, you have obviously made up your mind that ALL socialism is bad while refusing to even consider that "socialism" doesn't always mean what YOU seem to think it means.
The problems in these European countries you keep throwing around have nothing to do with the "socialism" that you're so adamantly opposed to. These countries are not even considered to BE "socialist states" in that respect. Sure, they have universal health care and "labor" parties (we have had and continue to have these "socialist" political parties, too, by the way), but we, too, have programs that are based on a socialist philosophy of "redistribution of wealth" "social justice", etc.
Ask the people of the UK if they are happy with their "socialized" medicine and they will overwhelmingly agree that they would NOT support a change to a US-style "capitalist" health care system. Ask the French if they enjoy their guaranteed vacation time, child care for working mothers, and other "socialist" programs that they, THE PEOPLE, have fought for and continue to fight to protect. These are places where the PEOPLE have power over the government. Why does that frighten you so badly? It's what the US was envisioned to be, too! So far, we've allowed ourselves to become so complacent that the government does NOT fear us. They have, in a sense, become dictators because they know we cannot stop them.
Now look at US, where in the past decade or so we have had our constitutional rights stepped on more times than I can count, and the government KNOWS they can continue to get away with it.
If anyone needs to wake up, it's YOU. You've been brainwashed into perpetuating a system that is
exactly the same as what you say you oppose.
Edit: Here's a link with some information that may help you understand what I'm trying to say. It is not pro-socialism or pro-capitalism, it is merely an analysis of the terms and an explanation of generally accepted meanings and usage.
