"Socialism" will not work; Equality and Freedom of the Individual, in a 'condition of togetherness', will work.

"Socialism", as a form of Government, will not work. The term is a misnomer; and an Oxymoron, because the Top of Government governs the human Individual, as an Individual, living in 'a condition of togetherness'. A 'condition of togetherness' always retains the 'individual elements' who are real, and who 'constitute' the 'togetherness' of the condition. Government cannot govern a general abstraction called the 'social' in its condition of 'abstraction'. The abstract nature of the term leaves too much 'wiggle room', at the Bottom of Government, among the real Individuals who are being governed, and leads to much abuse of power. If such was the case, racial discrimination could be justified by saying, "we have a socialistic form of government", where everyone is Equal and Free; when, in fact, Government discriminates between the individuals constituting the 'different' human races; or, sets standards that benefit one group of Individuals, but, discriminates against the Other groups. A "Social", in its 'condition of abstraction', cannot be governed; whereas a 'condition of togetherness' can be governed if each and every real Individual is included in the 'condition'. Governing is not easy, because it requires an Individual Representative who is capable of respecting the uniqueness of the individual human condition; and is able to govern the 'condition of togetherness', in its 'collective' condition without 'forgetting' and eliminating the Individual as a unique human being. Government must never forget that 'its a People' that is being governed.
