That said, you use that word Socialism (dirty to ultra-individualist American ears) too freely. Is Canada socialist? Is Switzerland socialist? Is Japan socialist?
Yes! Social Democracies is a term I feel might be accepted by Americans, over time. In contrast to Social Democracies, we have 'Private Greed’ of American capitalism.

Gotta take "social" out. Capitalistic Democracy? Isn't that our grand experiment? Democracy will cover workers and their families' education and healthcare, along with infrastructure, and environmental management (trying not to sound threatening to CEOs), freeing up business to focus on business.
Yes, I remember my affinity for Demorcatic Capitalism. We will have many people disagree with us, and so that is to be expected if we are say anything meaningful
