Kunstler: America's Not Going Socialist, It's Going Medieval

• https://www.zerohedge.com by James Howard Kunstler

Seems more than fair to many. It's not for nothing that they style it "social justice," the cutting edge of an economic system called socialism — with overtones, of course, of settling racial and gender scores for good measure.

Socialism might seem to be the answer to all this unfairness and indignity. And naturally it focuses on the two activities that have turned into the worst rackets in America: higher education and health care, a.k.a. "Eds and Meds." Both are now cruel bloated parodies of what they used to be, turning their customers into debt serfs and bankrupts, apart from their dismal failures of basic mission: to prepare developing minds for reality and to "first do no harm."
