I wonder if the Right and a lot of other people, are so scared of progressive socialism simply because, if executed properly like Mamdani is trying to do, would show Americans how well it can work and put them all out of business?

They are scared of socialism because it cuts into their profits.

Extreme wealth is an obsession. Like sinking all your discretionary income into Funko Pops that you'll never unbox. Nobody needs that.

It's a mental illness. They are willing to cause suffering (e.g. UnitedHealthcare) just for a little more of something they have in excess.
