Why do alot of Americans want socialism?  As if they can’t see that it fails in nearly every country?  I’m American btw.  ?

First, it hasn't failed in any country because there are no socialist countries. Venezuela is NOT a socialist country. And for the record neither are Norway, Sweden, or Denmark. They have socialized programs within a capitalist framework, which makes them no different from the United States. But they are not socialist countries. Please stop calling them that.

Second, Americans don't want socialism anyway. They want democratic socialism.

Third, we live in a country where 644 billionaires collectively raked in 1,000,000,000,000 dollars during a pandemic while ordinary citizens are losing their jobs, their insurance, and their homes. There are literally breadlines in Texas. Social programs coming to the rescue of hungry Americans because capitalism clearly is not working in their favor.

'Socialism' is a blanket term that alarmists have thrown at every single thing they disagree with for the past couple of decades.

They're taught in their liberal schools it's wonderful.  You just hope the clip is empty.
