I am tired of hearing the concept of socialism misued.

Just because something is public, government run, does not mean it is socialist. For something to be socialist it has to be a government sponsor monopoly. The US Post Office and public schools are not socialist because there are private parcel companies and private schools that are allowed and do exist.

The private school he went to ripped him off.
