Letter: Re: the Aug. 18. article “Letters to the Editor” I was in complete agreement with Mr. Arritola's opinion that Social Security and Medicare do not equate to Socialism. I was ('was' being the operative word) in agreement up to the point when he laid the blame on "Progressive Liberal Democrats" for "equating his benefits as a socialistic handout." Anyone who pays attention long enough will recognize that type of statement as a Conservative, Right Wing Rallying Cry.
