42% of Democrats are in favor of socialism

Marketwatch reports:
Many Democrats are feeling the love for socialism.

More than four in 10 Democrats say they have a favorable opinion of socialism, according to a survey of 1,000 U.S. adults released in January by data and research firm YouGov; this percentage is nearly identical to what the researchers found in May of last year. Meanwhile, only about one in three say they have an unfavorable opinion of the ideology.

The polling comes as Sen. Bernie Sanders, a self-described “democratic socialist,” is considered the front-runner to capture the New Hampshire primary on the Democratic side. Sanders has described the term as meaning that we “create a government that works for all and not just the few.”
The enemies of the system of free enterprise are becoming open about wanting free stuff.
