Why millennials are drawn to socialism

I'm just saying that we will reach a point where everybody has plenty resources and we will reach some kind of socialism but we won't implement socialism.

The need to survive doesn;t drive capitalism.  Consumer goods do. Currently, we conceive of needful goods as a consumer good. Theres no such thing as "enough goods" in a consumer economy.

Mo goods mo money..and this leads to a situation where food is traded as a commodity while people starve. To a situation where people starve while simultaneously being obese...even.

You dont need to get everyone onboard, in any case, only enough people so that the profit motive is eradicated in some tiny market space. There are no for-profit csa's within 25 miles of me, for example..because I would tank them.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
