It is very similar to global warming. Once politicians get their hands on an issue, it becomes political.
Horrible analogy. I'll start with economic side of your failure. Socialist aren't socialist because they are social. It's because the subscribe to economics of Socialism. Same with Communist (moneyless and classless believe), and Capitalist (private ownership of assets and goods). Now you have subsets of Socialism, Communism and Capitalism.
Socialism: Planned, Market, State/Self managed and out of that comes the political aspect.
Communism: Leninism, Marxism, Trotskyism, Maoism and Stalinism and these are heavily politically influenced economic theory.
Capitalism: State, Free-Market, Social-Market (think most of Europe), Corporate, Mixed (Third-Way), Financial, Anarcho and so on.. and again like Socialism then comes the political aspect.
Global Warming in itself hasn't been proved to be reasonably true. So it's been renamed Climate Change to cover up indescrepencies. But those who heavily believe in it are very political and are social justice and redistribution hacks. They are just as bad as those who believe the earth was created less then 4,000 years ago. The world is 4 billion years old. The world has only been warming for the last 120 years? Yeah.. and I am a monkey's uncle. The earth has always had warm and cool periods. Ups and Downs. We see it in our "history" books. Valley Forge, Irish potato famine happened during LIA and the MWP happened as well.
Economics is theory with politics. Global Warming is "science" with undisputed facts. But as we know science isn't a 100% and always changes. So if you are claiming Global Warming is just a theory.. okay. But I don't think you are.
