So instead of a specific target like free healthcare, you'd rather have some vague unspecific 'truth and justice'? Even if something like that was given to people as a way of staving off more substantial changes, it would still be worth having for all the people it would help - just like it was worth having the nhs here, despite it being a way for the establishment to stop 'proper' socialism (as keith will tell you). I don't say i want socialist policies out of ideology, just pragmatic sense, need and solidarity with people with even less than me - the ideology follows the reality. Surely you should see that real socialism is the main thing that really scares the criminals at the top? The thing that they always rush in to crush (like venezuela, or mcarthyism) or coopt (like new labour).
