I have nothing against socialism. If it's good enough
for rich capitalists, it's good enough for me.
 
       Aren't you confusing oligarchism with socialism?
 
 
How much of the value of your work goes to lazy freeloaders, and how much goes to your
employer, and how much goes into taxes that support the rich and their corporations?
 
          Much of it does, that is a choice the government has made.  That choice includes allowing employers to keep a portion of their earnings (viz, capitalism).   This choice can be made by a dictatorship, democracy or socialist country.  Employers' earnings are not an effect of democracy as a cause.  Nor are tax levels.
 
In case you don't know it, it costs you MUCH more to subsidize the rich than it does the poor, the lazy, the crippled, the sick, and the insane.
 
             Agreed here.  A rich lifestyle costs more than a poor lifestyle.  In this country many sick and disabled are thankful they are in this country instead of others.  It gives me a degree of happiness to support them through taxes.  This includes my elderly mother on social security and a good friend on disability.
