The real problem is, we don't have choices. Both democrat and republican candidates usually fall in the authoritarian right. Nearly every presidential candidate we've had is closer to Hitler than Jill Stein. How few democrats really push for single payer anyway?

Yup there is a reason political tests have two axises because politics is plural . But i myself find even these sorts of tests to simplistic . Because it only as precise as the questions .

It is a form of socialism, because the government is subsidizing these things. The problem is that we've somehow demonized socialism. at least, socialism for the poor. The rich get subsidies like nobody's business. They've demonized propping up the poor, because they know they have to get revenue from somewhere to run the country. And they refuse to take from the right, in fact they prop up the rich with more money, so they have to try to justify not helping people who actually need money and help.

But the thing is subsidizing government programs is not even a socalist idea and long predates socialism. Hell even Conservative monarchies have done similar things.
