Where privacy is concerned, our government is becoming as bad as the Soviet Union or China; the policies of this government, from a bird's-eye view, see this country falling more and more toward a socialist society. This is troubling to me, and to most people I know.
You seem to have a poor idea of what Socialism is. Neither the Soviet Union nor China were socialist countries, they were communists. Without getting into debating the ideal of either, the two are very different in the way they have been practiced. Socialism doesn't imply that privacy is being compromised. In fact, socialist countries such as the Scandinavian countries have much more respect for your privacy that the US government does. It would be more accurate to claim that the US government, with respect to privacy, is gravitating towards fascism than socialism or communism.
