Many conservatives, libertarians, and Republicans are flabbergasted, disgusted, or dismayed at the apparent current popularity of socialism.

A recent Gallup poll reported that socialism is viewed favorably by 51 percent of Americans between the ages of 18 and 29, and 57 percent of Democrats favor socialism over capitalism.
