Huh? I don't recall ever calling you a Nazi. If you're not a communist, I would like to know what other philosophy espouses that all wealth is owned in common.

I think that people would be a lot less healthy and educated if it wasn't for the efforts of the governement.

Ignoring the facts that a) the government isn't nearly involved in health as it is in education, and b) the US education system is the laughing stock of the world, let's just focus on your point. Would there be
no healthy or educated people unless business (or government, if you prefer) paid for their health and education?

Well, if we're dealing with principles, they have to be stretched to extremes. If you're going to categorically claim that what is good for society is advantageous to "all of us", then I have to take you at your word.
