*Everything* depends on the State for it's existence nowadays & that includes all the left-wing politically-correct schemes that are so prevalent.
The difference is that the socialists believe that economic common sense should take a back seat to ideological considerations, which eventually results in a wrecked economy.

 One of the
 many things that makes me shake my head is how avowed
 anti-socialists reliably support  fission power plants,
 that are completely reliant on the State for their
 existence.
 They rely on
 State power for their insurance, with laws exempting them
 from being sued in the case of malfunction.
 They rely on State subsidies for
 their construction.
 They rely on the State to pay for
 their decommissioning.
 They rely on the State to dictate
 the prices their customers must pay.
 I mean, really, every cooling tower
 on a fission plant should have a hammer and sickle painted
 on the side.

 It was Merkel's personal bias against nuke power
 that has shut down the plants in germany.

 I used to watch DW-TV & the commentators mentioned it
 more than once.

 Besides, it's well established that DSANH's have
 little to no effect on anything.

 It's the mainstream Left that loves to dictate to us
 peons/serfs/whatever who they believe need their
 'guidance' so much.

 Capitalism really sucks until the experience the
 alternatives imposed by the 'ivory-tower' 
 'eggheads', serene in their detachment from reality,
 secure in their 'cloud-cities', & oh, so
 superior to the 'great unwashed' beneath them.
