Letter to the editor: Socialism is not so threatening

Richard Isenberg’s “Letter to the Editor” on Feb. 20 “All of us are socialists” was well written and accurate. As he wrote, “Socialism is only a word, and not as threatening as ignorance, intolerance or greed.” I would like to add one more thought. “When everyone does well, everyone does well.”
Also, When Charles Murray returns to Middlebury College in March to once again speak his blather, don’t show up. Let him speak to an audience of only those who invited him back again.
