Sure, the rich might be getting richer, and the poor might be getting poorer, though for all intents and purposes this change seems to affect the middle class, or what is left of it.
What I don't understand is how that ties in with socialism. In modern times, in developed countries, socialism generally pulls the poor up and the rich down (e.g. scandinavia, northern europe, canada-sort-of). How did you reach the conclusion that a relatively right-wing government is socialist?
Okay, fair enough, I guess what I'm getting at is that I find it hard to call that socialism of any kind: it's just corrupt government via bribery (probably).
