Eh, more along the lines of euro/Canadian style socialism. State owned would be full blown commie.

In any case there is no true free market anymore. Illicit drugs might come the closest but even that has govt interference due to the illegality.

I can get to the other side of the neighborhood in my car pretty quick too. Doesn't mean I buy a garage for it there and leave it there with a driver on standby.

I don't buy this whole "we have to have our military in everyone's backyard or everything will fall apart" idea.

North Korea could wipe out Seoul in about 10 minutes with a missile launch. The only reason they don't is because we have a large military presence on the border.
